Our roads keep filling up with more and more cars. The #NorthSeaRegion project SN² bit.ly/41StCUA integrates shared mobility into real estate projects and aim to reduce the dependency of cars and space for parking. This will also make housing more affordable🏘️

Cycling connects people to the land. "To design cities right, we need to focus on people. Far too often, city planning is approached as an engineering problem, instead of connecting people with the land." writes Scientific American.

As urban populations rise, the bicycle is a practical alternative to the car-oriented societies in which we live. With the appropriate infrastructure and policies to make cycling attractive, we can mitigate traffic congestion & spend the time saved on more meaningful activities
