Tourism and Leisure Route is a solution designed to optimize the cycling network in cities, focusing on the interaction between permanent and operational cycling networks. Its purpose is to extend the sections for cyclists, especially during Sundays and holidays, thus facilitating access to the main urban tourist spots. This tool supports the Ministry of Tourism in the planning and execution of temporary cycling networks, ensuring broad and strategic coverage that connects tourist attractions. In addition, it promotes the use of data to improve decision-making in the tourism field, contributing to more efficient and user-oriented management.
