Let \((X,\rho)\) be a geodesic space (a complete convex metric space), as was defined by \textit{V. A. Efremovich} [Usp. Mat. Nauk 4, No. 2(30), 178 (1949)], and let \(M\) be a nonvoid subset of \(X.\) The \(\delta\)-metric projection of \(x\in X\) onto \(M\) is defined by \(P(x,M,\delta)=\{y\in M: d(x,y)\leq d(x,M)+ \delta\}\). The author defines a kind of uniform convexity of geodesic spaces, which generalizes the uniform convexity of Banach spaces. He obtains sufficient conditions for several kinds of connectedness of \(M\) in a uniformly convex geodesic space \(X\), expressed in terms of \(\delta\)-metric projections. The continuity of \(P(\cdot,M,\delta)\) is also studied. The results represent generalizations of the corresponding ones for Banach spaces, obtained by \textit{L. P. Vlasov} [Mat. Zametki 3, 59--69 (1968; Zbl 0155.45401)] and \textit{A. V. Marinov} [in Approximation in concrete and abstract Banach spaces, Collect. Sci. Works, Akad. Nauk SSSR, Ural. Nauchn. Tsentr, Sverdlovsk, 82--95 (Russian) (1987; Zbl 0678.54020)].
