European bicycle plan - the mobility of the future

European bicycle plan - the mobility of the future

All over Europe, the bicycle is already an important part of the efforts led to achieve sustainable and affordable mobility

In June 2017, the European Cyclists` Federation published a document entitled EU Cycling Strategy. Recommendations for Delivering Green Growth and an Effective Mobility in 2030, in which they write that “the benefits of cycling are widespread and concrete; they range from less congestion and better air quality to more jobs, and improved mobility.” They argue that cycling contributes to at least 11 of the Sustainable Development Goals.

The European Cyclists`Federation has defined four objectives for 2030: grow cycle use by 50 % across the EU; halve rates for killed and seriously injured cyclists; invest 3 billion euros in cycling in the period 2021-2027, and 6 billion euros from 2028 to 2034; treat cycling as an equal partner in the mobility system.
