Cities across Europe are looking for ways to reduce congestion, improve air quality and create healthier, more liveable urban environments. Cycling has the potential to play a much larger role in everyday mobility — but turning ambition into reality requires the right policies, infrastructure, data and collaboration.
In this panel discussion, leading experts and city representatives will explore what it really takes to make cycling a mainstream and preferred mode of transport. From safe infrastructure and smart integration with public transport to behaviour change and inclusive design, the discussion will highlight practical lessons, challenges and success stories from cities that are already making progress

Herbert Tiemens, Claire Bailly, Tobias David, Henk Swarttouw (Moderator)

By combining his experience in the field of (cycling) mobility and his training as an urban planner Sjors can create effective connections between these fields of expertise. He believes that public space is not just transportation space, just as that traffic and mobility is not just about moving goods and people. The trip, be it on a bicycle, in a car or in a train, can add value to the traveller and to the inhabitants of a city. By allowing people to move in and between places you create connections and facilitate social interaction creating innovation and a sense of belonging to space and place. In the past years Sjors has worked at several governmental levels; local, regional, and national level.
Sjors has extensive experience in planning cycling infrastructure and developing cycling policies. He can combine different views and cultures and combine those in tailor-made approaches; aimed at a specific city, region, or country. He integrates deep knowledge on design principles (protected intersections, cycling highways) with extensive policy and political experience; all to make sure that sustainable, cycling friendly, cities can be developed.
