I28-R264-article-163142025-08-04T12:44:24Z Territorial vulnerability of cyclist people in VW FINSA región, Puebla – Tlaxcala Metropolitan Area Vulnerabilidad territorial del pueblo bicicletero en la región VW FINSA, Zona Metropolitana Puebla-Tlaxcala Bañuelos González, David Hernández-Rodríguez, María de Lourdes Core – periphery theory explains inequality relations in different territorial scales. This research adresses the use of bicycle as a response to colloquial expression “cyclist people”, which marginalizes this mean of transport within the context of automotive industry in the Puebla – Tlaxcala Metropolitan Area (PTMA). The aim was to quantify bicycle use in urban locations around the VW industrial core, in PTMA, and illustrate its vulnerability. A 5.5 km radius around the industrial core was defined and 30 traffic intersections were appraised to register the amount of cyclists. Findings show that bicycle use in suburban locations is up to 11 times higher than in those near the industrial core. Marginalization of bicycle use in Volkswagen FINSA region is related to industrial and urban conditions of territory and locally exemplifies global dichotomy between core and periphery. La teoría centro–periferia explica las relaciones de desigualdad en diferentes escalas territoriales. La investigación aborda el uso de la bicicleta y la expresión coloquial pueblo bicicletero, en un contexto territorial históricamente marcado por la industria automotriz en la Zona Metropolitana Puebla–Tlaxcala (ZMPT). El objetivo fue cuantificar el uso de la bicicleta en localidades urbanas aledañas a la planta industrial Volkswagen FINSA, en la ZMPT, e ilustrar sus puntos vulnerables. Para ello, se delimitó un radio regional de 5,5 km alrededor de la planta, dentro del cual se realizaron 30 aforos ciclistas. Se descubrió que el uso de la bicicleta en localidades periféricas es hasta 11 veces mayor que en localidades inmediatas al centro, caracterizado por una mayor urbanización e industrialización. Se constata que la centralidad regional vulnera el uso de la bicicleta y ejemplifica localmente la dicotomía global centro–periferia.

Core – periphery theory explains inequality relations in different territorial scales. This research adresses the use of bicycle as a response to colloquial expression “cyclist people”, which marginalizes this mean of transport within the context of automotive industry in the Puebla – Tlaxcala Metropolitan Area (PTMA). The aim was to quantify bicycle use in urban locations around the VW industrial core, in PTMA, and illustrate its vulnerability. A 5.5 km radius around the industrial core was defined and 30 traffic intersections were appraised to register the amount of cyclists. Findings show that bicycle use in suburban locations is up to 11 times higher than in those near the industrial core. Marginalization of bicycle use in Volkswagen FINSA region is related to industrial and urban conditions of territory and locally exemplifies global dichotomy between core and periphery. |
