Cycling in Limburg on the rise: 22 percent more traffic on cycling highways than last year

Last month, there was a 22% increase in cyclists on Limburg's fast cycling routes compared to October last year, with 449,954 cyclists recorded. This growth was observed at nearly all measurement points across the province, indicating a positive trend in cycling habits. The notable rise is attributed to improved cycling infrastructure, which has encouraged more residents to choose cycling as a mode of transport. The measurement point at the Provincial House saw an exceptional increase of 672%, but this figure is excluded from the overall average due to contextual factors. The provincial mobility deputy emphasized the importance of this growth for Limburg's cycling culture.
