Head of Transport Planning - Arup

Today, the EU took a major step forward in promoting the most inclusive, affordable, and sustainable mode of transport: all Member States and EU institutions have signed the European Declaration on Cycling, the first inter-institutional cycling policy at the European level. It sets out 36 strong commitments such as creating safe and coherent cycling networks in cities, improving links with public transport, and providing secure cycle parking spaces and access to recharging points for eBikes. Look forward to seeing the commitments flow down to national level in Ireland throughout our regions, cities and towns and continuing our role delivering on some of these commitments already. #wearearup #cycling #cities #sustainabletransport

  • A visual of the front side of a yellow bike cycling. The bike has a blue tire. The stairs of the EU flag surround the tire and recreate the EU flag with the blue background.   

A text reads in the middle of the tire “European Declaration on Cycling”.
