The EU Cycling Strategy, published in 2017, has significantly advanced cycling across Europe by expanding cycling networks, integrating cycling with other transport modes, and increasing funding for cycling projects. Many EU countries have developed national cycling strategies, aligning with broader goals for sustainable transport and climate action. This has led to reduced emissions, improved public health, job creation in the cycling industry, and boosted local economies. However, challenges remain, such as infrastructure gaps in rural areas and the need for ongoing efforts to encourage more people to cycle. Overall, the strategy has made notable progress in promoting cycling as a sustainable and healthy mode of transport.
