Plus précisément, selon le concept de «perméabilité filtrée», la liberté de mouvement d'une personne doit être plus grande si elle se déplace à vélo qu'en automobile. Le réseau accessible aux cyclistes doit donc être plus perméable, c'est-à-dire plus étendu (configuration), plus dense (densité) et mieux connecté (connectivité) que le réseau pour l'automobile.
