Transforming urban transport 

Bicycle Łódź is a dynamic social initiative launched by the “Normal City” Foundation “Phenomenon” to promote cycling as a sustainable alternative to cars and public transport in Łódź, Poland. Through this project, the foundation advocates for the development of better cycling infrastructure and encourages local authorities to prioritise cycling-friendly policies. 

Cycling made easy 
The project’s key activities include creating resources such as a detailed cycling map, offering tutoring for cyclists, and developing a Cyclist’s Code to help educate the public. The initiative also actively monitors and contributes to the improvement of existing bicycle infrastructure and roads, aiming to make cycling safer and more accessible for everyone in the city. 

Connecting people and places 
Bicycle Łódź reaches a wide audience, including those who cannot afford a car and rely on cycling as their main form of transport. The initiative has significantly influenced local authorities’ decisions on infrastructure and road maintenance, and its events attract a large number of participants. Their efforts have earned them over 20,000 followers on social media, showing growing public support.
