Why do Dutch train stations have so much bike parking?

Planners have specifically chained the bike and train as one seamless mobility option: quick, convenient, affordable door-to-door travel used by hundreds of thousands each day.

Car as a guest - that's the concept behind 'fietsstraten' in the Netherlands.

On these streets, bicycles have priority, and cars are limited to low speeds, creating safer and more pleasant environment for road users.

Bicycle trips increased by 4% and walking trips by 40% among Amsterdam residents from 2019 to 2023. These findings come from the 2023 monitor of Amsterdam’s Car-Free Agenda, highlighting the city's shift towards sustainable and active mobility.
