Liveable Cycling Cities (VR Film)

In partnership with NLinBusiness, the Dutch Cycling Embassy is proud to present this VR film about resilient and sustainable mobility. “Liveable Cycling Cities” takes viewers on an immersive journey through the Dutch cycling (r)evolution, from the 1970s road safety protests in Amsterdam to the spectacular Hovenring suspended bicycle roundabout in Eindhoven.
The key message: cycling is now a universal mode of transport in the Netherlands, but it wasn’t always that way. It was the outcome of decades of strategic investment in active travel, establishing a set of best practices the Dutch are able to share with global cities looking to follow in their footsteps.

Thank you so much for creating this. It's content like this that makes it so easy to "show" people why cycling is so incredible for people.

My daughter and partner live in Eindhoven and we visit several times a year. When we're there we always use bikes and it's so refreshing to get about the local area safely and quickly - that cycle roundabout you featured is amazing and makes so much sense 😀
Thanks for doing so much to promote cycling!

Lol there is no need to reinvent the wheel. That is Tru, but looking ad the countries that try it, they don't understand that. 😂😂

Not interfering with the car traffic is not necessarily a good thing. Car traffic has to be impeded wherever possible, so that only those who absolutely have to will still want to go by car.

I see your point. But you can do that with barriers, blocked roads, narrow lanes and road features, traffic lights, single lanes, chicanes, trees and lots of other infrastructure without actually forcing your slower road users to be the speed bumps that slow the cars down.
