The role of the federal states in the promotion of cycling today and in the future

Tuesday 02.00 – 03.15 pm / Block C1

Promoting cycling is first and foremost a local authority responsibility. However, the challenge is enormous, not least against the backdrop of current crises and developments such as the shortage of skilled labour. The question then arises as to which tasks can the federal states take on to promote cycling at the local level? The format provides an impetus for all those who directly or indirectly promote local government initiatives, be it on part of cities, municipalities and districts, federal states or the federal government.
