Leave city because:too polluted,
too much cars,not safe.
Commute by car because:no alternative transport,
its a habit & prestige,developed road infrastructure.
Endless loop
Curing car traffic problems by adding car lanesis like curing obesity with loosening your belt.
- Lewis Mumford

Riga has favourable conditions for cycling
Cycling is not a goal in itself but rather
a highly prioritised political tool for
creating a more liveable city.
Ayfer Baykal
Head of Copenhagen Planning dept.
Growing cycling in cities is inevitable
The sooner we will aknowledge it as
part of mobilitythe faster we will get a livable city
