Cycling is already an important part of daily life many of Brazil’s urban residents. To grow the country’s cycling culture as well as provide better conditions for users, EMBARQ Brazil developed this “Manual of Projects and Programs for Encouraging Cycling in Communities” in partnership with the Institute of Architects of Brazil (IAB – RJ). The manual gathers successful experiences in the field of urban mobility and sustainable transport and brings together these examples into concrete lessons to create a technical guide for future urban cycling projects.
