  • In 1989, the German state North Rhine Westphalia (NRW) entered a new phase of its bicycle policy: the bicycle-friendly city programme Fahrradfreundliche Städte und Gemeinden in Nordrhein Westfalen (FFSG). The chief aim was to increase bicycle use from 12 to 25 percent of all journeys and to radically improve the safety of cyclists. There are now 29 cities in the network. A recent evaluation shows that bicycle use has risen in some of these cities, while car use has declined.
