Abstract
Afhandlingen undersøger, hvordan gadebelysningen i København fungerer for cyklister. Gennem et casestudie af udvalgte gader analyseres de nuværende anlægs fotometriske ydeevne – hvor stærkt lyset er, og hvordan det fordeles – og hvad det betyder for cyklisters oplevelse. Afhandlingen gennemgår også den nuværende tilgang til gadebelysning ved at se på regler og planlægningsdokumenter. På baggrund af analyserne foreslås syv designprincipper, der kan forbedre gadebelysningen for cyklister.
This thesis examines how Copenhagen's street lighting works for people who cycle. Using a case study of selected streets, it analyzes the photometric performance of current lighting—how bright the lights are and how the light is distributed—and considers how this affects cyclists' experience. It also reviews the current design approach by looking at regulations and planning documents. Based on these analyses, the thesis proposes seven design principles to improve street lighting for cyclists.
