A city council recently debated whether to replace several downtown parking spaces with protected bicycle lanes. Supporters argued that safer routes would encourage more residents to bike, reducing traffic and air pollution. Opponents worried that fewer parking spots could hurt nearby businesses, especially during busy weekends. To inform the decision, the council reviewed traffic counts, surveyed shop owners, and studied similar changes in other cities. After weighing the evidence, members proposed a   period, meaning the plan would be tested temporarily before becoming permanent. This approach would allow officials to collect data and revise the design if needed. Using context clues, what is the best word for the blank in the passage?
