Smart cities, innovative infrastructure and human-scale planning put cycling in the forefront of future mobility. "In our cities we don't need more driveless cars, we need more carless drivers". With this phrase, urban planner Marco te Brömmelstroet set the tone for a day that had it all. Latest trends and tested solutions in design and infrastructure, hot debates on smart cities and insightful information on what makes people of all ages cycle. Spanning across an impressive variety of content and format, sessions of Velo-city 2017 in Arnhem-Nijmegen had one thing in common: centering transport around human needs. The long day concluded in a spectacular Mass Bike Parade which has become a Velo-city tradition!
