There are now a total of 33,000 bike parking spaces in the Utrecht Central Station area. That doesn’t mean this is sufficient for the future.

They are expected to be at capacity by 2025, and the city is already working on solutions to meet rising demand.

"The Dutch 🇳🇱 cycle 🚲 so much it’s like planting 54.000.000 trees 🌲🌳 every year."

And that's only ONE of the many benefits for people 👫, cities 🏘 and society 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦!

Create cycle lanes, connect them all, safe intersections, discourage cars, communication of benefits clearly. It is not a rocket science but institutional support for sure. #cycling #cyclelanes

Cycle needs to win back it's space which is being encroached by motor vehicles! For sustainable future.

"Cities around Europe are spending money to reorient urban travel through dedicated infrastructure for bicycles — a citywide bikeway network can be built for about the cost of a single highway junction." https://t.co/XELpYfEYpx

8 years ago, a prominent mayor of a major city (who is still mayor today) insisted to me that in 10 years we would all be riding in driverless/automated vehicles. I said we wouldn’t be close to that in 10 years, & if we were, it wouldn’t be a good thing for cities.

2 years left.

They say “We can’t do that. We’re not Amsterdam.” You respond “Amsterdam wasn’t always like that either,” showing before & after transformations illustrating that cities we admire made CHOICES. They make more tired excuses. Don’t accept them. (1e van der Helststraat, 1978 & 2005)

Amsterdam used 1970s oil crisis as catalyst for change. It took 40 years of consistent planning to become the cycling city we know today.

If you think more highway is part of the solution...
...you are probably part of the problem.
