Reinterpreting the role of mobility in peri-urban areas: a multi-scale analysis in Cuenca – Ecuador
Keywords:
Movilidad, Periferia urbana, Planificación Territorial, Relación campo-ciudad, Transformaciones socio-territorialesAbstract
The assumption that all periurban areas are equal leads to mistakes in MM-policies. This cross-sectional study used a quantitative, multi-scale approach to analyze the role of mobility in periurban areas of Cuenca, Ecuador. The travel behavior of the periurban population was based on a survey of 1158 households in which four study areas were analyzed and compared using seven mobility parameters. At the macro level, the typologies of periurban areas were identified according to access to the bus service, using the partitioning algorithm around medoids. The information analyzed shows that 72.5% of the periurban population works and studies in the city. It highlights the diversity of mobility patterns of periurban residents and defines three territorial typologies in this area.
