WEBINAR: POP-UP BIKE LANES – A GAME CHANGER IN CYCLING?

The corona pandemic has challenged users of public transportation, but many people still need to move from A to B every day. As a response, so called pop-up bike lanes are being implemented very fast all over the world from Berlin to Bogota.

Pop-up bike lanes not only make cycling in cities possible during the current crisis, but also provide an opportunity to demonstrate how streets can quickly be redesigned to accommodate more people moving through the city in a healthy and sustainable way.

May 14th at 14.00 (CEST) Ramboll Smart Mobility has invited the City of Berlin, the New Zealand Transport Agency and DG Move (European Commission) to share how public authorities at different levels can implement and support pop-up bike lanes.
