January 11, 2022 - The Metropolitan City of Milan has approved the new €225 million Cambio cycling mobility plan. The ambitious project will build another 750 km of cycle paths by 2035, connecting the entire city and its surroundings.
Milan has approved an ambitious cycling mobility plan which will provide innovative infrastructure to the 2.6 million inhabitants of the Italian city of fashion. The Cambio bicycle plan will use advanced technology and an extensive network of cycle lanes to increase bike trips and help reach the city’s goal of a 20% modal shift to cycling.
Mobility councillor for the Metropolitan city of Milan, Beatrice Uguccioni, observes that the main goal is to make the bicycle the most convenient mode of transport for everyone.
The Cambio project – from the Italian word cambiare, meaning to change – clearly takes its inspiration from the outstanding work done in Paris with the Plan Velo 2021-2026, which aims to promote cycling education, improve cycling infrastructure and reduce motorised traffic in the Parisian capital.
