ECF’s Cycle-friendly Employer Certification (CFE) is instrumental in creating a culture of cycling to work. ECF quantified the benefit of cycling to economic productivity at a €4.5 billion benefit to the European economy due to reduced...
Last newsletter we introduced the Safer Cycling Advocate Programme: The Best Practice Guide. This week we run through some of the infrastructure elements of the document to see how the Danes and Dutch go about cycling infrastructure development....
Road safety is a pressing issue in Europe, with over 25,000 deaths recorded on European Roads in 2019. Of these people an increasing proportion are cyclists, rising as a proportion of deaths from 6-8% from 2007 to 2018. What can be done? In this...
The CHIPS project (Cycle Highways Innovation for smarter People transport and Spatial planning) financed by Interreg North-West Europe has been 3 years of knowledge sharing and research between partners from Belgium, the Netherlands...
Car traffic can be “filtered out” on selected streets to create better conditions for walking and cycling, and at the same time maintain necessary access to every location. On the cycle highway Batavierenpad Zuid filtered permeability improves...
Instead of cutting trees to widen carriageway, an old car connection between Nijmegen and Beuningen was turned into a cycle path. Now this tree-lined avenue is a particularly scenic section of cycle highway Batavierenpad Zuid. Beuningen is a...
Road markings play an important part in cycle highway’s readability and safety. They help the cyclists to follow the route, especially in poor visibility conditions, improve the recognisability of cycle infrastructure for other users, and can also...
In our series of articles showcasing infrastructure of cycle highways we return once more to RijnWaalpad, to examine “het Groentje”. The bridge was incorporated last minute into the design of Nijmegen ring road to avoid interruptions and delays for...
Continuing our journey on RijnWaalpad, the cycle highway from Arnhem to Nijmegen, we arrive to Snelbinder – a two-kilometre long bicycle bridge, used by 6000 cyclists daily. It is interesting both as an engineering accomplishment and from the urban...
Where cycle highways meet busier roads, crossings are often grade-separated to maximise safety and minimise the need of stopping. We revisit RijnWaalpad to see how to design safe, comfortable and attractive bicycle tunnels. Bicycle tunnels...
