Abstract

Pressure on bicycle parking management is on the rise with bicycles becoming more popular among residents. As a result, bicycle parking among residents of the inner city of Groningen has lacked in capacity, availability, and accessibility. This study looks at governmental, physical, social, and environmental factors that impact bicycle parking conditions. This research aims to identify how bicycle parking conditions effect the quality of life of the residents in the inner city of Groningen. Surveys were distributed in pedestrian, bicycle accessible and car accessible zones. Additionally, an expert interview was carried out to further explore the current situation. Results show a clear relationship between bicycle parking conditions and the quality of life of the residents. The city center of Groningen presents adequate parking conditions, with possible governmental and physical aspects to improve to ensure optimal satisfaction among the residents. It is recommended to investigate the topic and get a deeper understanding of the issues. Furthermore, repeating the research with a high number of respondents will benefit the accuracy of the relationship.
