EU Cycling Strategy handover at Velo-city 2017!

Velo-city 2017 will welcome the EU Commissioner for Transport, Violeta Bulc, for the official handover of the blueprint EU Cycling Strategy.

Stakeholders from diverse backgrounds, including Polis and some of our Members, have joined forces over the past months to develop a blueprint for an EU Cycling Strategy, lead by the European Cyclists’ Federation (ECF), which will recommend objectives and define actions falling within EU competence.

Published at the Velo-city 2017 conference in June it will then be submitted to the European Commission as a new inspiration for action.
