Cycling across borders: Implementing the right infrastructure in different global contexts

19 Jun 2024      10:45 - 11:45       GRAVENSTEEN (Green room)      Panel discussion
Connecting regions, cities and Neighbourhoods
This session is an exciting opportunity to hear from non-European cities implementing cycling infrastructure and will facilitate an exchange of ideas about how to adapt to different local contexts. The Bloomberg Initiative for Cycling Infrastructure (BICI) is a new program from Bloomberg Philanthropies and the Global Designing Cities Initiative (GDCI) funding safe, interconnected, and innovative cycling infrastructure projects in ten cities around the world. This panel discussion brings together representatives of three of the BICI cities, from different global regions, to discuss their experiences with delivering cycling infrastructure and to talk about their plans for the program. The discussions will identify similar challenges and opportunities, as well as highlighting unique approaches to implementing cycling infrastructure that respond to specific contexts.
