The City of Copenhagen’s Bicycle Strategy 2011-2025 (EU)

Copenhagen’s bicycle strategy was approved by the City Council in December 2011. The strategy includes new initiatives and plans, which lay down guidelines for the longterm and overriding priorities for bicycle planning. These initiatives and plans are intended to help Copenhagen reach the goal to become the world's best bicycle city before the end of 2015. This strategy replaces Copenhagen’s former bicycle strategy ”Cycle Policy 2002-2012”.

Copenhagen’s overall goal for cycling include goals for the number of cyclists as well as the quality of cycling (sense of security, safety, travel time and comfort). One of the more ambitious goals is increasing the modal share for bicycles to 50% of all trips to work or educational institutions by the end of 2015. In 2010 the modal share was 36%.
