Abstract

This report brings together the experience of 21 countries and 7 municipalities in developing and implementing policies and measures to promote cycling as a means of travel. Based on the findings of the study, a Declaration on National Cycling Policies for Sustainable Urban Travel was agreed by ECMT Ministers at their 2004 Ljubljana Council. With this Declaration, Ministers recognized for the first time the importance of a national policy and institutional framework for promoting cycling. It is considered that a national cycling policy, tailored to a country's specific circumstances, can provide a common, integrated basis for the long-term development and implementation of cycling policies among various sectors and levels of government.
