Guangzhou isn’t just building bike lanes. It's building a healthy, liveable city.
With 6,000 km. of greenways, it boasts one of the world's largest cycling networks.
What was once overlooked is now impossible to ignore: a vital link in their modern, multimodal transport system.

Noticed quieter roads this week?
🚸 The school Christmas holidays have a HUGE knock-on effect on traffic.
🚗 In some areas, the #schoolrun has been reported to increase pollution and bus times by 50% compared to holidays.
This has to change.

Thanks, it is positive but listed as 'Amber' and 'subject to resource availability' so still lots to do to try and move this forward. Please help spread the word about the petition - ipetitions.com/petition/a-ca… – at Lambeth, London
