Following the launch of the Manchester Interim Cycling Strategy earlier in the year and subsequent press coverage of Manchester City Council's stated ambition to become the No.1 Cycling City in the UK by 2017 comes the welcome announcement of the Love Cycling GO DUTCH event in Manchester on 20th November.
The meeting, co-sponsored by Netherlands Business
Support Office in Manchester and the Embassy of the Kingdom of the
Netherlands in London will provide an opportunity for local council officers, transport planners and cycling advocates to meet with leading Dutch and UK experts and policy makers in the fields
of cycling and urban planning.
With the recent successful £36+ million Local Sustainable Transport Fund (LSTF) bid and the Cross City Bus Oxford Road Corridor funding - Manchester has the opportunity to develop more imaginative, consistent, coherent, connected and safe cycling infrastructure.
Time to Go Dutch!
When: 9.00am-5.30pm: Tuesday 20 November 2012
Where: Manchester Town Hall, Albert Square, Manchester, M60 2LA.
