Programme promoting non-motorized modes of transport
(cycling and walking) in the municipality of Bera leading to a
municipal agreement on sustainable mobility.
September 2009 – October 2010
The municipality of Bera, interested in reducing motorized
traffic, reached an agreement with CRAN for the development
of a promotional programme whose final objective was to
reach a municipal agreement or pact on the strategy and
schedule to follow.
In order to draw up a proposal for debating purposes within a
participative process, a diagnosis was made based on
interviews with stakeholders and an analysis of the area. A
draft agreement was elaborated and meetings were held to
discuss the ideas and proposals put forward. Once the
agreement was at hand, the media were convened to cover
the signing thereof and information and awareness-raising
actions were carried out: a brochure and posters, a bicycle
festival, including a lecture on cycling as a family activity
(Bera is the main locality in the EuroVelo route), display of the
exhibition “Pedaladas hacia la sostenibilidad” [“Cycling to
sustainability”], staging of the play “Pies para qué os quiero”
[“You’d better use your feet”], development of a guided tour
and training on safety and pedestrian-friendly attitudes, and
cycling-oriented leisure games.
Lessons learned from this process might be:
 Implementation of programmes sometimes do not provide
immediate results or benefits and their success must be
evaluated time after finished
 When working with municipalities it is important to involve
all political parties because changes on municipal
government might happened and it is important to
guaranty the continuation of the process.
Evaluation of the overall programme and different activities
has been done through the final survey done to partners and
stake holders involved in Added Value applications. This
survey has also evaluated the impact of actions in cycling
development.
Activities targeted to inhabitants has been evaluated also in
this final evaluation survey as well as with participants
through methodologies explained in detail in specific sections
(mainly through satisfaction questionnaires, informal
conversations during and after activities and direct
observation)
