  2. 2. Is there a willingness to pay for shade provision as part of cycling urban infrastructure? Eliciting attributes of a discrete choice experiment in Neiva, Colombia

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Jorge Andres Arce Correa; [2023]
    Keywords : Bicycle commuting; shade; sustainable development; stated preference; welfare economics;

    Abstract : This manuscript reports on an exploration of whether shade provision is valued by urban users of cycling infrastructure. A description of the elicitation process has been outlined in order to build a general but detailed analysis of the different stages included in the exercise of attribute elicitation. READ MORE
