Abstract
La desconexión urbana ha sido un problema grave del desarrollo urbano en Bayamón, Puerto Rico. Esta desconexión urbana ha traído consigo exclusión de comunidades a través de la falta de acceso a oportunidades de desarrollo socio-económico para personas de comunidades de bajos recursos económicos. Las mismas comunidades usualmente cuentan con falta de acceso a alternativas de movilidad diferentes al automóvil, como andar en bicicleta, caminar o transporte colectivo para poder llevar a cabo sus actividades diarias en un espacio urbano dominado por infraestructura, dirigida hacia el vehículo privado. La poca integración al sistema de movilidad urbano existente aumenta la exclusión social de estas comunidades. Un modo de movilidad asequible y sostenible como la bicicleta pudiera ayudar a reducir esta desconexión urbana, integrando infraestructura que permita a los residentes de estas comunidades realizar actividades y tener acceso a oportunidades de desarrollo sin la necesidad de un vehículo de motor.
Urban disconnection has been a serious problem of urban development in Bayamón, Puerto Rico. This urban disconnection has brought exclusion of communities through the lack of access to opportunities for socio-economic development for low-income communities. These low-income communities usually have a lack of access to mobility alternatives other than automobiles, such as cycling, walking, or public transportation. In order to carry out their daily activities in an urban space dominated by infrastructure directed towards the private vehicle, the lack of access to alternatives creates exclusion and makes it more difficult for them to move forward. The little integration to the existing urban mobility system increases the social exclusion of these communities. An affordable and sustainable mode of mobility such as cycling could help reduce this urban disconnection by integrating infrastructure that enables residents of these communities to engage in activities and have access to socio-economic development opportunities without the need of an automobile.
