Ten Cities Will Get Up to $1 Million for New Cycling Infrastructure
A new program from Bloomberg Philanthropies and the Global Designing Cities Initiative will select cities looking to build more bike lanes and increase ridership.
A new program will provide as much as $1 million to 10 different cities worldwide to transform their cycling infrastructure in an effort to make streets safer for riders and reduce dependency on cars.
The Bloomberg Initiative for Cycling Infrastructure, a collaboration between Bloomberg Philanthropies and the Global Designing Cities Initiative, will target cities with more than 100,000 residents and accept applications on a rolling basis from Nov. 10 to Feb. 3. Those selected will also receive guidance from GDCI, which has helped local governments in more than 30 cities with similar initiatives.
