Ciclovía, CicloRutas, TransMilenio, and Parks Users’ Average Number of PA Minutes per Week
Ciclovía Photo: Olga Sarmiento • -113 km of streets • -~70 events per year • -600,000-1,200,000 participants per event Weekday Ciclovía Sarmiento et al 2010; Montes et al. 2012; Torres et al 2013
Ciclovía & Physical Activity • Adults (18-64 yrs) • 9.8% of the population reported participating in the last month • 59.5% of users meet PA recommendations (for leisure) • Ciclovía participants vs. no participants are more likely to meet PA recommendations (POR:1.7; 95% CI 1.1-2.4); (POR: 7.4; 95% CI 4.0-13.8). • Ciclovia participants are more likely to bike for transportation OR 2.28 (1.32-3.94) • The cost–benefit ratio for health benefit from physical activity was 3.23–4.26 • Older Adults (60-98yrs) • Access to Ciclovíawas associated with having walked at least 150 minutes in a usual week (POR:1.29, 95% CI1.0, 1.7). • Children (9-10 yrs) • 31.8% of the children reported participating at least once a month in the Ciclovia • Cicloviausers have higher mean minutes of MVPA vs. non Cicloviausers Beta= 3.047 p=0.03 Sarmiento et al 2010; Montes et al. 2012; Torres et al 2013; Gomez 2010

CicloRutas • -Bike paths • -344km in the network • -Longest network in Latin America • -83,436 users per day • -Law on Obesity (1355) as a strategy to promote PA Photo: Ethel Segura Torres et al 2013; Ricaurte 2010
CicloRutas • 70.5%of users meets PA recommendations (fortransport) • The cost–benefit ratio for health benefit from physical activity was 2.8 Photo: Ethel Segura Torres et al 2013; Ricaurte 2010
CicloRutas Stakeholders • Facilitators Barriers • City government • JICA • Urban planning (IDU) • Public utility companies: EAAB – ETB – Codensa • IDRD • Police • Bike activists • Favorable context • Vision of the city: sustainable transport • Budget allocation • Changes to roads that supported the new infrastructure • Non-integrated interventions • Lack of comprehensive policies • Lack of a lead entity • Imbalance of transport priorities • Low status of bicycles • Circuit interruptions • Road insecurity and crime • Funding for maintenance
TransMilenio Photo: Andrea Ramírez -30% of the trips in Bogotá are made by public transport (9% TransMilenio) -TransMileniobuses operate in exclusive lanes with fixed stations ~500m -Average of 1.2million passengers per day -The fastest mode of transport 28km/h Cervero et al. 2009
TransMilenio Photo: Andrea Ramírez Adults living in a neighborhood with 1 or 2 TM stations are more likely to walk for transport and meet PA recommendations than those who live in neighborhoods without TM stations Cervero et al. 2009
Physical activity &TransMilenio >22 minutes daily of MVPA (PR = 1.36, CI = 95% [1.08-1.63] Relation between moderate and vigorous physical activity (MVPA) minutes per hour and time of day for users and nonusers of TransMilenio (N = 250).
TransMilenio Stakeholders • Facilitators Barriers • City government • Urban planning • Public transport operators • Private concessionaires • Media • Urban planning experts and academics • City residents • Favorable context • Political will • Unsuccessful earlier experiences • Fixed stations • Problems in execution and operation • Reduced user satisfaction • Cost of the fare

Outdoor gyms Stakeholders • Facilitators Barriers • Private company • City residents • IDRD • Public-private partnerships with benefits for all • Community participation • Funding • Vandalism
Lessons learned • Multi-sectoralwork. • Use of existinginfrastructuretopromote PA tooptimizeresources • Comprehensiveinterventions. • Health sector needstobuildonothersectorsinitiatives. • Topromotesustainability—commongoals and active interactionsamonginstitutions. • Communityparticipation & politicalwill: both are necessary but neither is sufficient on its own.

Recommendations • Include the health sector in urban planning processes. • Include health indicators in the design, evaluation and monitoring of urban development programs. • Promote different dimensions of PA through comprehensive approaches. Photo: Olga Sarmiento
