It runs for three years 2022-2024 and provides funding, already allocated, of 943 millionof a total value of 1.2 billion. There are also two areas of development in cycling:

• Urban and metropolitan area.
• Extra-urban area (provincial or inter-municipal, regional, national and European).

What will be done in concrete terms?

La cyclist safety will be the cornerstone of the Plan: improved signage, creation of a shared space between the different road users. Along with these, inevitable will be the creation of cycle paths in urban and suburban centres also to promote the development of tourism in the territories.

The big goal

The big goal is to promote a change of mentality regarding the use of two-wheelers. Looking at bicycles not only as a leisure vehicle, for recreation, but as a real means of transport to replace cars and more. The benefits of cycling are many, but apart from being an environmentally friendly and healthy means of transport, it is also convenient, efficient and safe for the movement of people and goods. Suffice it to say that in many European countries, deliveries are made by cargo bikeVans are already the past.

To arrive at this collective imagination, it is good to inculcate this mentality starting with primary school students reaching across all strata of the population down to the business community.
