This research proposes a network of bike lanes on Avenida Sucre in Lima, Peru, aiming to improve urban mobility and reduce public transportation costs. The project seeks to create safe infrastructure for cyclists, promoting an alternative and healthy means of transportation, reducing vehicular congestion, and enhancing residents' quality of life. By 2027, the implementation of the bike lane is projected to increase demand to 232 bicycles per day, compared to 142 bicycles per day without it. This significant rise in bicycle use will enhance urban mobility on Avenida Sucre. Estimated travel time for a cyclist on the new bike lane ranges between 5 and 13 minutes, depending on traffic conditions and stoplights, with these times being more efficient at 13% and 54% than current ones. To implement the bike lane, the width of vehicle lanes will be reduced to create a 2-meter-wide unidirectional lane for bicycles in each direction. This reconfiguration complies with national and international standards and regulations. In conclusion, implementing bike lanes significantly reduces travel time in congested urban areas, optimizes the use of urban space, encourages bicycle use, and decreases vehicular congestion. Future demand for bike lanes in Peru is promising, especially among the young and urban population. However, improving infrastructure and road safety is crucial to maximize this potential
