Aarhus, DK encourages active travel during the winter season with cycle path condition texts

Aarhus, DK Active Travel Winter Cycle Path Condition Texts

In Progress

A network of 40 temperature sensors was installed along six cycling routes throughout Aarhus. Residents can opt into a free text service with updates on route conditions. Automated texts encourage cyclists to commute using their preferred routes when weather conditions are favorable. The city's Weather Service uses temperature data and weather forecasts when recommending path use. This trial evaluates how Aarhus can increase safe bike use in cold weather.

Sensorer i stierne og venlige sms’er skal forlænge cykelsæsonen i Aarhus

Kan cykelsæsonen i Aarhus forlænges? Det skal et forsøg være med til at undersøge. Aarhus Kommune sætter som forsøg sensorer i en række cykelstier for at kunne måle deres temperaturer og deraf vurdere, om de er gode at køre på. Borgere kan tilmelde sig en sms-service og blive opfordret til at cykle på kolde men gode cykeldage.
