"Cykelregnskab" Every two years, the City of Copenhagen prepares a so-called bicycle account. Here it is made clear how it is possible to achieve the goals that have been decided in the bicycle strategy. The bicycle accounts have been published since 1995 and provide a good overview of what is happening to improvements for cyclists - and what can be done better.
Copenhagen’s guidelines for bicycle infrastructure is described in detail in the publication Focus on Cycling. This includes intersection design, bicycle track width, signage, bicycle parking, maintenance.
Through words, data and pictures this strategy outlines what needs to be done in order to reach the goal of Copenhagen being an even better cycling city with more people choosing to bike.
