How did it start? Last year we met family Rokos (Ljiljana and Borjan) at bike tour who were delighted by organization and they initiated arrival of their friend from Europe. Several people cancelled arrival due other obligations. But others came in Slavonski Brod: Giani Udovicic (France), Christelle Laborde (France), Tamas Soos (Hungary), Piotr Majchrzak (Poland) i Petri Laine (Finland).

We organized tourist guidance for them, they participated in bike tour, they were guests at new radio station Radio92 and they were sailing above our city in glider.

We would like to thank Tourist guide’s society (Vera Pudic), Aeroclub Brod (Filip & co.) and Radio 92.

We thank our friends who came from other countries and we would like to see them next year here!

Paris encourages cycling

Slow-speed zones are an increasingly widespread tactic to improve street safety and urban livability. Inspired by a German town that limited motor vehicle speeds to 30 kilometers per hour — or roughly 19 miles per hour — British activists have made 20 mph zones a core street safety policy across the nation.

The movement has begun to catch on in the United States, where New York has been implementing 20 mph zones on neighborhood streets.

The just-elected new Mayor of Paris, Madame Anne Hidalgo, has prepared a revolutionary sustainable mobility project whereby virtually all of the streets of the city will be subject to a maximum speed limit of 30 km/hr.

The only exceptions in the plan are a relatively small number of major axes into the city and along the two banks of the Seine, where the speed limit will be 50 km/hr, and the city’s hard pressed ring road (périphérique) where the top permissible speed has recently been reduced from 80 to 70 km/hr. At the other end of the slowth spectrum are a certain number of “meeting zones” (zones de rencontre) spotted around the city in which pedestrians and cyclists have priority but mix with cars whi

This major policy initiative has not however taken place overnight, since for some years now there has been a steady increase in the number of zones reserved for pedestrians only, and more recently a step-by-step movement to “eco-areas” where top speeds are already limited to 30 km/hr. By 2013 some 560 kilometers of the city streets were already in such areas, about one third of the total.

 

In Slavonski Brod, Gerhard Ablasser presented traffic strategy of Graz that is similar like examples above.
