Pedalè

IN PROGRESS

From 2021

The decarbonisation of mobility is indispensable to achieve the goals of the EU 2030 Plan against climate change.

Turin, with its 207 km of cycle paths, is a highly ‘pedalable’ city, but to function effectively and allow citizens to use it in comfort and safety, the infrastructure must be properly signposted and maintained.

This is the goal of Pedalé, the project by Legambiente Piemonte e Valle d’Aosta - the most widespread environmental association in Italy - which maps cycle routes with the help of all those who want to make a difference and support safe urban ‘cycling’.

FirstLife, a civic social network and digital crowdmapping tool to support active citizenship, has made its contribution by developing the Pedalè platform through which cycle paths are mapped, services such as refreshment points (drinking fountains) and bike repair are reported, and structural problems and maintenance needs are highlighted. Pedalè staff will intervene to make them safe, thanks to the reports collected and the collaboration with the City of Turin.

The Pedalè platform gives voice to the community of citizens who want to make Turin green, safe and on a human scale!
