As recent studies of bicycle traffic have shown, more and more Minsk dwellers choose a bicycle not only for recreation, but also as a full-fledged form of urban transport. By the way, the theme of the European Mobility Week 2019, which takes place annually from 16 to 22 September, is “Safe walking and cycling”.
The action "Cycling to Work" was organized by the Minsk Cycling Society and the Center for Environmental Solutions with the participation of the Minsk City Committee for Natural Resources and Environmental Protection. The event was supported by the European Union within the framework of the Urban Cycling in Belarus project and the GEF Small Grants Program within the Development of Cycling in the Regions of Belarus project.
