  • Bicycling Beats Two Global Challenges; Health and Transportation

    (Transportation-News.com, March 13, 2014 ) Berlin, Germany -- With the increasing petroleum price, traffic congestion and pollution, a lot of Nations lead to bicycling as an alternative form of transportation.

This is a huge step in creating a bicycle friendly environment. Transport Enhancement activities highlight provisions of facilities for pedestrians and bicycles, provision of safety and educational activities for pedestrians and bicyclists as well as Landscaping and other scenic beautification to make bicycling pleasurable.
