An Empirical Study on the Characteristics of the Number of Bicycles Parked on Blind Paths in Beijing and the Optimization of Urban Road Distribution Based on Mathematical Models
To address the issue of the lack of protection of the rights of visually impaired people due to the occupation of blind paths by shared bikes in Beijing, this study, based on spatial analysis and mathematical modeling methods, integrates multi- source data to explore the spatio-temporal characteristics and distribution patterns of bike parking on blind paths. Through comparative analysis of different areas such as the core area, suburbs, and areas around subway stations, the spatial differences and key influencing factors of the occupancy rate of blind paths were identified, and a three-dimensional optimization model of “demand-facility-policy” was constructed. The study found that the occupancy rate of blind paths within 1 km of metro hubs and CBDS was recorded 47–62% higher than in other areas, and the rate of illegal parking in areas covered by electronic fences decreased by more than 80%. Based on the empirical results, a road optimization plan of “zoned control + technology empowerment + supply and demand matching” is proposed to provide theoretical support and practical paths for balancing barrier-free access and the development of shared bikes.
