1,000 people from around the world gathered in Copenhagen in June for the Velo-City Global conference to learn, discuss and share best practices about urban street design and bicycling. The conference was held in the 'City of Cyclists' where almost 40% of people commute by bicycle every day! Come to the LivableStreets' StreetTalk to hear stories and see photos from the conference in Copenhagen, and travels around Denmark, Netherlands, and Sweden by our own:
