Xining - A Chinese cycling city
Task: HOE360 Consulting was responsible for planning and execution of a three-day course in the Chinese city of Xining, including learning-based presentations, workshops and discussion with the city's official traffic office. At on-site visits concrete solutions were discussed and developed so that they fit the local context and traffic culture and standards.
Value creation: Xining wanted to get Danish expert eyes on their plans, partly to ensure the quality, partly to hear and add Danish cycling experience in the design and planning before construction.
Background: Xining has ambitious plans, primarily driven by an expected doubling of the population from the current 1.3 million inhabitants to 2.7 million in 2020. Therefore, the city has planned the establishing of 600 km bike lanes, a bike-share system, 17 new pedestrian -and bicycle bridges and nearly 100 km subway lines over the next three years.
