00:00The bike every time takes more protagonism in Bogotá.
00:03The use of this transport system has increased
00:04and has been consolidated more than the cyclists
00:07as a key actor for the complicated mobilization capital.
00:10This has brought great advantages and benefits to the bike users,
00:13but also challenges and challenges
00:15that we will present to you all the city actors.
00:18Welcome to this new space for talking about mobilization alternative.
00:38Bogotá wants to be an epicentro of the bicycle in the world.
00:41Since 20 years, all the administrations have done efforts
00:44to improve the conditions for urban cyclists,
00:47but still are many of the challenges for the city to be really favorable
00:50for the use of the bicycle and other alternatives.
00:54If there is something for what today can be done is
00:56for the 680.000 daily trips and the 635 km of bicycle.
01:02This is not a easy decision to accept for other actors.
01:06And, in fact, one of the biggest problems
01:08has been the interaction with the drivers of other types of vehicles.
01:11But, how is it that with the bicicarriles
01:14most large in Latin America,
01:15the cyclists have problems to ride by the city?
01:18According to many visitors,
01:20some of these cyclorutas are more difficult than a benefit.
01:23The cyclorutas have no space for the bicycle,
01:28but they don't care about all their colegas
01:30well parked and doing things that they don't have to do,
01:34like running the maletines of the bicicarriles
01:36that guarantee the safety of the bicicarriles.
01:39In the beginning, the red no is completely connected
01:41and many times desemboca in large avenues
01:44to ride or ride.
01:45In other carriles,
01:47they have been traversed
01:47posts, signs of transit,
01:49semifinals,
01:50and other cyclorutas
01:52have little illumination
01:54and acompañamiento.
01:55So, they are the most pleased
01:56by the ladrones of bicis.
01:58For these reasons,
01:59in 2020,
02:00they have been involved in 1.683 vehicles
02:04and 40 people have died
02:05by choques or robes.
02:07Cifras that come in the descenso,
02:08but that they don't stop to be worried.
02:10The bicicleta is typified in the Código National
02:13of Tránsito as a vehicle,
02:15so it has the right to occupy a car in calzada.
02:21It is not that they are taking space to the car,
02:23it is that they are reorganizing the space
02:25so that all the real actors
02:28have the right to use and enjoy the city.
02:33But the biciswires also have their own sins
02:36and that the peatons and conductors
02:38of other vehicles,
02:39they have made several critiques.
02:41The reasons most common
02:42are that some people
02:43don't respect the semifinals,
02:44drive at very high speeds
02:46or zigzagging in the avenues,
02:48among others.
02:50A veces, one goes to go and
02:51by the point of the ciegos
02:53they can't see,
02:54and even when I understand
02:55there is a pair
02:57where they have to do the pauses
02:59so that they don't have the turn
03:00and that they don't do it regularly.
03:03So, when one sees it,
03:04one sees it on the other side.
03:05Others walk very quickly,
03:08but the cycloroute
03:09is different.
03:10And the cyclists
03:10have the cycloroute
03:11and they don't respect it?
03:12There are imprudence
03:13by the cyclists?
03:14By both sides.
03:16Supposedly,
03:17we have the priority.
03:18So,
03:19many people
03:20don't take it into account,
03:22so,
03:23they pass over us
03:24sometimes, literally.
03:25I see the traffic
03:27and when I look
03:30to one side,
03:30they almost take it
03:32to the racetrack.
03:33If there is a trap,
03:34then they go to the acero
03:36and ask one permission.
03:37If I go where I have to go,
03:39why do they ask me permission?
03:41Many of these critics
03:42are conscientes
03:43the cyclists,
03:44who recognize
03:44that there is a work
03:45of conscientization
03:46with the most innovative
03:47and with the responsables
03:49on board of the two wheels.
03:50These are some
03:51basic recommendations
03:52if they are part
03:53of the two groups
03:54or, in general,
03:55if they want to have
03:56a better ride in bicycle.
03:58Hello,
03:58how are you?
03:58My name is Angela
03:59de Curvasenbici,
04:00a community that
04:01is conquisting the city
04:02with women in bicycle.
04:03And today we want to share
04:04with you an important message.
04:06We would like to see
04:08our city
04:08as more pacific.
04:10How can we achieve this?
04:12We invite you to leave
04:13to your house
04:13with a little more
04:14of time extra
04:15so we can avoid
04:16the afanes.
04:17We leave the side of the ego
04:18and share the space
04:19public with all the actors
04:21that we really deserve.
04:24Adicionalmente,
04:25if we take a closer
04:25to that sense of humanity,
04:28love and respect
04:29for the people,
04:31that will guarantee
04:32that this positive message
04:34will come to future generations.
04:36The behavior of the cyclists
04:37will continue to be vigilant
04:38and for that
04:39it is important
04:40that we begin to
04:40give conversations
04:41about the conduct
04:42on the roads,
04:43that, without a doubt,
04:44they will turn around
04:44to protect all the actors
04:46and understand
04:47that no one vehicle
04:48is driving alone,
04:48but there will be
04:50one or several lives.
04:51There will be
04:52There will be
