The 500,000 people who use bicycles each day in Copenhagen
are not “cyclists,” nor are they “environmentalists.” They merely choose to
ride because of safe, quick infrastructure. After 30 years of traffic and urban
planning, the bicycle has become a democratic tool liberating Copenhagenites
from cars and created the foundations for one of the world's most liveable
cities. Speaker Mikael
Coleville-Andersen is Denmark's leading bicycle advocate, advising cities,
towns and organizations about bicycle culture, infrastructure and urban
planning with a unique focus on the anthropological aspects of getting more
citizens to choose the bicycle.
