Spicycles'
Final Brochure
When
the Spicycles
project was
launched in
2006, cycling
was not the "hot" mode
of transport
that it has
become today.
As project
partners, we
wanted to gather
experience
related to
specific areas
of cycling
policy. We
were keen to
explore how
key elements
such as communication
and awareness
raising, and
the building
of local partnerships,
might increase
the modal share
of cycling.
We had big
expectations
at the beginning
of the project
regarding cycling
planning, but
could not have
predicted the
explosion in
the popularity
of public bicycle
systems that
has taken place
during Spicycles.
All Spicycles'
results can
now be seen
in the reports
and newsletters
on the website spicycles.velo.info,
which also
features an
innovative
interactive
map for cycling
planning, a
benchmarking
tool and a
pool of consultants.

on the rise'.

Brochure.
