12 April 2023 - Conference: ‘MaaS and the promotion of cycling in (not only) smaller cities’

A bicycle is an ideal means of transport for short distances, for example within a small town. What are the possibilities, methods and experiences in promoting cycling? Can the concept of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) help in this respect? The EUKI project CLIMASUM is co-hosting a conference in Říčany near Prague, one of these “smaller” cities that are successfully trying to promote the development of cycling in their territory, to share tools, practices and the challenges of Říčany and other cities.
