Abstract :
    Cycling has become an increasingly popular mode of transport in urban areas, but the infrastructure for cyclists in peripheral areas is often lacking. However, developing cycling infrastructure in these areas can be challenging due to limited resources and competing priorities. This is especially important in marginal areas where resources may be limited and there may be competing priorities. This study examines the challenges, benefits, and necessary facilities for the development of cycling infrastructure in these areas using the AHP method. Based on the analysis and 8 effective sub-criteria, the results indicate the importance of education options with 0.264, rules with 0.275, and ways with 0.230, which are selected based on priority and planned based on them.
