Dutch bike policy

Dutch bike policy emphasizes prioritizing cycling as a sustainable, safe, and integral part of urban transportation. It involves extensive infrastructure, such as dedicated bike lanes, parking facilities, and traffic calming measures to protect cyclists. Policies also promote bicycle use through subsidies, integration with public transit, and urban planning that encourages cycling over driving. This approach aims to reduce congestion, lower environmental impact, and improve public health, making cycling a convenient, reliable, and safe choice for daily travel across Dutch cities.
