The aim of this study is to design a 10.500
meter bicycle path for the use of a bicycle as a means of transportation in
Gümüşhane city center. A bicycle route has been identified considering the
characteristics of the city and its current transportation network. The design
of bicycle paths and the cost of application projects were prepared throughout
the selected route. Also, a face-to-face survey was conducted covering the city
center and the university campus. It has been tried to learn the opinion about
the cycling habit of public, benefits of cycling and the obstacles to cycling
in the city within the scope of the survey. According to Chi-square and
Phi-Cramer's V tests the results of the survey, significant relationships were
found between the gender of participants and cycling, the education level of
participants and cycling, and the definition of cycling. The
cost of designed bicycle path construction is 2.740.900 Turkish Liras (TL) and was
found about three times less than the cost of a single lane highway. As a
result, it was found that cycling is healthy, safe, economical, environmentally
friendly and easily reachable. These characteristics of cycling show that
cycling for sustainable transport is one of the most important solutions to
