Call for papers for Velo-City 2003

Or, in English, ‘The bicycle, an essential tool for winning the city back.’

2. The future, the vision, the aim: a more friendly city

3. Integrating the bicycle in comprehensive policies.

4. Strategies: methods, alliances

5. Conditions for efficient implementation.

Abstracts should be submitted to:
