What initiatives are there for cities?
In recent years, the use of bikes in cities has kept growing. This sharp increase has led to the implementation of many projects in metropolitan areas, to the great delight of our cyclists!
But what are these initiatives put in place by cities? And how can they benefit our cyclists… We'll tell you everything! If you are still hesitating to take up cycling, you'll have no more excuses after reading this article!
THE TREND!
Cycling lanes
Having become a fixture in major European cities, cycle lanes have clearly managed to integrate durably into the daily lives of French people!
Subject to much criticism, particularly from motorists, these zones dedicated to cyclists are a boon for all cycling enthusiasts who want to ride safely. Since 2019, the French government has already invested more than 365 million euros in cycling infrastructure. A figure that shows no sign of stopping.
THE LITTLE BOOST
Cycling subsidies!
One of the true ecological goals of recent years is the limitation and reduction of petrol-powered vehicles, and particularly cars. The bicycle is therefore emerging as one of the major alternatives to this widely popularized mode of transport.
That is why the French government has introduced a subsidy to encourage the purchase and use of bicycles. A welcome boost that will benefit both your wallet and the planet!
Choosing a bike is great… Choosing a well-equipped bike is even better!

AN ECO-FRIENDLY DAY!
Car-free days
Want to fully enjoy a bike ride in the city? Many municipalities are choosing to bet on "car-free" days, to offer their residents a chance to rediscover the city from a new angle.
These days are also the nirvana of cyclists! Don't hesitate any longer, September 22nd is your moment! Cities also regularly organize pedestrian days in certain neighborhoods, especially in summer. One more reason to take advantage of it.
There are still a multitude of initiatives put in place by cities, to offer cyclists all the comfort and peace of mind needed to ride with complete freedom of mind. Want to discover more? Feel free to check with your local municipality!
