Bicycle Excursions for Professionals
Experiencing firsthand how a bicycle city works can be a valuable lesson for anyone concerned with traffic, bicycling, urban design, sustainability, etc.
Fietsersbond Amsterdam (the Cyclists’ Union in Amsterdam) organizes excursions about bicycling. The excursions offer a range of information about what it takes to turn a city into a bicycle friendly environment and allow you to profit from Fietsersbond's extensive expertise in design and policy for bicycling.
Along the way you will find out about:
- Bicycle facilities: what they do and how they came to be
- Traffic policy: past, present and future
- Finding space and money for bicycle facilities
- Trouble spots that have no easy solutions
- New challenges
- Road safety, city planning, traffic design
- And more
The excursions are aimed at professionals and students in the fields of urban transport, city planning, sustainability, public health, etc.
Professional bicycle planners with wide experience in Amsterdam will show you around and explain.
