E-bikes: The future of urban mobility

Thursday, May 30, 2019 at 6 pm, free admission
Electric-assist bikes are revolutionizing urban travel. In the Netherlands, e-bike sales already account for 50% of the market. The wave has spread to Europe and China and is about to hit North America, mainly Quebec. No longer deterred by long distances or steep slopes, more and more people will consider commuting by bike. This new reality should influence infrastructure designers and promote, among other things, the development of decent bike parking facilities. Ready for the revolution?

Lecture with Christopher Cherry
