Leading the change for sustainable transport
The Finnish Cycling Federation (Pyöräliitto) is at the forefront of advocating for cycling as a primary mode of transport in Finland. As a key player in shaping cycling policies and infrastructure, the Federation strives to make Finland a better place for cyclists through various campaigns, legislative changes, and collaborative projects.
From lawmaking to public awareness
The Federation engages in lawmaking, public discussions, and supports local cycling organisations. It organizes VeloFinland, a major seminar, and has been a driving force behind impactful changes, including legislation for bike-friendly infrastructure and the promotion of cycling as an eco-friendly mobility option. Its projects reach various groups, including seniors and immigrants.
Paving the way for a cycling revolution
The Federation has achieved remarkable milestones, such as influencing the introduction of electric bikes into the scrapping premium system, contributing to a reform in traffic laws, and driving the government’s goal of increasing cycling by 30% by 2030. Its efforts continue to encourage sustainable mobility, particularly in urban and semi-urban environments.
