Leeuwarden internationaal podium voor derde World Cycling Congress

Winter Cycling Congress 2015 Leeuwarden is about uniting hearty souls from communities of all climates, sizes and levels of bicycle development who share the ambition to make two-wheeled travel normal, even when the snow flies.

Using the perspective of all different types of professionals – from engineers to planners to bloggers to public health officials and more – we are planning a conference meant to show winter cycling is more than a sustainable solution for transporting people, it is also a way to develop a culture and built environment supporting the health, wealth and happiness of many people. Winter cycling enthusiasts will be gathering in Leeuwarden 10-12 February. Join
us in a dialogue about the latest academic research, experiences of other communities and international best practices and leave the congress ready to take action at home. We’re envisioning a future where cities around the world — not just here in the Netherlands — have mass cycling and walking all through winter. Winter Cycling Congress 2015 Leeuwarden is hosted by Regionaal Orgaan verkeersveiligheid Fryslân, (Regional Traffic Safety Board of the Province of Fryslân) and organised by Mobycon a research & consulting business in traffic, transport & mobility. The Winter Cycling Congress is a project of the Winter Cycling Federation.
