Europe’s cyclists left behind as safety gap widens, new ETSC report finds
A new report from ETSC reveals that cyclist deaths across the European Union have barely declined over the past decade – even as deaths among car occupants have fallen at four times the rate. The report calls for urgent action on motor vehicle speed reduction and separated cycling infrastructure to close a widening safety gap.
30 km/h speed limits cut deaths and injuries
A review of 40 European cities finds that city-wide 30 km/h limits cut crashes, deaths and injuries substantially. They also reduce emissions and noise while improving conditions for walking, cycling and public transport.
