CIVITAS Webinar "Bikes on Buses"
How bikes can be transported on bus lines? Why combining bikes with public transport and where this solution can be convenient and effective? Which normative, technical and operational aspects have to be taken into account?
Several measures have been already developed and tested in different CIVITAS cities. From the first experiences in Krakow, La Rochelle and Funchal to more recent solutions implemented in Brno and Zagreb, the option of carrying bicycles on board public transport vehicles is not only limited to tram and metro or restricted to folding bikes but could be easily implemented also on bus networks. Â Â Â Â Â
On Monday 30th November 2015 the members of the CIVITAS Thematic Group Collective Passenger Transport debated and learned from the CIVITAS experience in a free webinar open to all urban mobility practitioners. Â Â
The registration of the webinar is available on the CIVITAS YouTube channel @ https://youtu.be/bj4Vm4itrm0
