For the past three years, the Cycling Cities campaign has worked to communicate and scale best practices from Global South cities that are leading the way in cycling. These cities tend to have a few things in common – a cycle network (or similar) plan that establishes a connected network of safe cycle lanes, dedicated funding for cycle infrastructure and program implementation, and a range of initiatives that support access to cycling, such as bikeshare.
In this webinar, we heard from three Cycling Cities that are successfully implementing these key elements. City representatives briefly shared their projects, and then participate in a moderated discussion to share insights about program design, vision and goal setting, funding, communications, and maintenance.
