Cities release policy briefs in multiple languages
We are excited to announce the publication of the policy briefs by the five cities partners to SPECIFIC, which are now available both in English and in their respective native languages.
These briefs address current issues in cycling-based mobility, providing research-based insights and recommendations on how to favour cycling in those low-density urban areas. Ultimately, the policy briefs provide indications on how to support the implementation of 15 Minute City principles in the SPECIFIC cities.
After a deep retrospective analysis on the various initiatives each city has put in place to sustain a more cycle-friendly lifestyle (which you can dive into the “Initiatives” section), the researchers have put together a first document that summarizes the key findings coming from Bellinzona, Bristol, Graz, Maastricht, and Poznan.
These policy briefs are meant to be valuable both for the city planners and residents, and we welcome you to take a look at them by following this link ?
