In the
last few years, the use of the bicycle has been considered an alternative to
the more traditional forms of transport, in the city of Seville. The Hispalense
University within its Governing Council,
approved a project whose main aim is to ease communication by
creating a network of cycleways between the different
faculties in the university distributed
in the Reina Mercedes
Campus , Old Tobacco Factory , Macarena and Cartuja
( there is a long distance between each
campus). With this project, a demand made by the 70.000 students at the
university will be
achieved. The work in this project started seven
years ago, and will not only meet the
demand of the university students, but
will also improve health and
promote a healthy environment.
With
the use of these cycle lane, it will be possible to ease the journeys of the students from one
campus, to another one, activity that
at the current moment is being increased, as a consequence of new
cross curriculum study plans, because many students now have to attend curriculum subjects, in several different
centres, whilst studying for their degree.
The
Transport and Traffic Delegation of the Local Council have
taken on the task for carrying out the building works, at the
same time that the University will
ensure that all the faculties
have the services and accesses
needed for the students and and security for cycle
parking.
