Hasselt (Brussels Morning) – Hasselt is enhancing cycling infrastructure, including a new two-way bike path and upgraded service road, with a focus on student accessibility and a 24/7 campus model.
The new plans aim to get more people especially students to ride bikes. It’s seen as more eco-friendly, healthier, and easier on the wallet. The Flemish mobility minister, Lydia Peters, even rode a bike to emphasize this message. They’ve increased funding for cycling infrastructure, from 75 to 400 kilometers of cycle paths annually. The Fun Group provided the facilities, and the minister got the images for the election campaign.
