SUM-Türkiye and the Interface for Cycling Expertise (I-CE), a Dutch non-governmental organization, trained a local team on designing safe cycling corridors that meet are working with the Antalya Transport Directorate to develop a pilot cycling corridor and improve traffic signalization, which is currently unsafe for both pedestrians and motorists and contributes to traffic congestion.
The project, partly funded by the CIVITAS Initiative, aims to provide a safe and appealing environment for cyclists by creating world-class cycling routes, improving intersections, and educating motor vehicle drivers about sharing the road. The city looks to have a 'state of art' cycling network with the bicycle as an integral piece of the city’s transport infrastructure.
