Active mobility, particularly cycling, has become a relevant component of sustainable urban mobility in several Latin American cities. However, the existence of bike lanes does not necessarily guarantee adequate conditions of safety, comfort, and connectivity for users. In this context, La Marina Avenue, located in the district of Pueblo Libre, represents one of the main road corridors in Metropolitan Lima. Along this corridor there is a heavily used bike lane, despite physical deterioration and deficiencies present in several of its sections.

This research aims to evaluate the quality of cycling infrastructure along the sections of La Marina Avenue between Brasil Avenue and Universitaria Avenue. It also seeks to analyze whether the design and current condition of this infrastructure adequately respond to its role within the city’s active mobility system.

To achieve this, the study proposes a methodology based on a multidimensional evaluation approach, taking as reference the work of Zhaoqiu Tan and Jinru Wang (2025). This approach integrates criteria related to structural connectivity, mixed-traffic interference, cycling environment comfort, and continuity in the presence of urban barriers. The research also adapts the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to the urban conditions of the case study. The analysis is supported by field observation, spatial analysis of the corridor, and systematic recording of the physical and functional variables of the bike lane.

The results reveal significant contrasts in infrastructure quality along the studied corridor. Sections with higher levels of traffic conflict, pavement deterioration, lighting issues, and discontinuities in the cycling network are identified. Finally, the study establishes a precedent for the analysis of other urban corridors and contributes to planning efforts aimed at improving active mobility and road safety in Metropolitan Lima.
