Module 8 – Land-use and mobility Question 19: In what way is the current land-use planning supporting the cycling policy ?
The land use planning and strategic documents integrate all modes of transport, but mainly on the level of „policy on paper“ – more measures needed Example – Integrated transport system in South Moravia Region
Module 8 – Land-use and mobility Question 19: In what way is the current land-use planning supporting the cycling policy ? In CR – the level 2 is max. by now, reccomendations to revitalise the railway stations and integrate all modes of transport (example Nordhein-Westfalen, Germany)
Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany: Programme ‚100 cycle stations‘ at railway stations

Some negative factors: • Bad surface quality of some cycle routes • Missing or damaged cycle signs • Lack of space for construction of separated cycle paths in cities and municipalities • Lack of financing • Additional services to be completed – bicycle rentals and repair services, catering and accommodation in small municipalities, cycling equipment needed etc. • High intensity of car traffic in big cities
Selected positive factors : – The interest of tourists and local citizens in cycling is increasing (cycle transport, cycle tourism), healthy life style – Good supply of interesting destinations – natural and cultural heritage – Local governments interested – link with the reg.gov. – Dense network of signposted local cycle routes, plans for development exist (planned cycle plans in urban and rural areas) – Cooperation with public transport operators, railways and bus companies for intermodality with cycling
