Copenhagen - City of Cyclists

 
 

Copenhagen is the city of cyclists


Cyclists in Copenhagen travel a total of 1.2 million kilometres by bike every day. This is the equivalent of cycling to the moon and back – twice!

There is a total of 350 kilometres of cycle tracks and 40 kilometres of green cycle routes in Copenhagen -the equivalent of the length of Jutland!

In Copenhagen, one person in three commutes by bike to work or school every day.
A big city with so many cyclists offers many benefits. In terms of the environment alone, cyclists help keep the city’s CO2 traffic emissions at a low level compared to other big cities. When we reach the stage that over 50% of commuters choose to cycle to their place of work or education, then Copenhagen traffic will be able to save an additional 80,000 tons of CO2 per year.
