A resilience indicator for sustainable tourism in urban road networks

Sustainable tourism is becoming increasingly important as shared micromobility systems allow users to cover short to medium distances independently and sustainably. Their use can be strategic during major events because of their availability and capacity to avoid traffic. On the other hand, it is necessary to analyze the resilience of urban road networks for cycling tourism during major events. To the best of our knowledge, there are no studies on this specific topic. To address this aim, we propose a cycling resilience indicator for sustainable tourism in urban road networks to define road network resilience and the relevance of each network link. This indicator was applied to the city of Bari (Italy) and the results may be of great interest to municipal councils.
