Santa Isabel, a small city in Ecuador, faces challenges in urban mobility due to the increase in traffic and noise within the city. This is why GAD Municipal, despite its scarce resources, is willing to improve through a mobility plan that consists of several degree projects of students from the University of Cuenca where together they aim to improve traffic conditions and city mobility. Despite not being a large city, it has a tendency to use motorized vehicles. This is because new modes of sustainable transportation are not promoted within the city. This is where the use of the bicycle presents itself as an alternative, since in several cities in Ecuador, it has gained more users and recognition. In this Project, an analysis was carried out on the disposition of the population of Santa Isabel with the intention of implementing a public electric bicycle system. Through surveys to better understand the behavior of the population in order to develop the sizing of a public electric bicycle system, in addition to proposing connection routes between stations as a cycle route that connects them. The study considered that the population is receptive to a new transportation alternative, so that the public electric bicycle system would improve mobility if it has the support of the authorities to implement it.
