[sustran] Cycling in Third World Mega-Cities

[Eric Britton]

May I suggest that the most useful concrete example and leads here may
be available from the extensive Bogota experience of the last years,
during which time cycling has been developed into a real transportation
means for a Third World mega city whose initial cycle endowment was
nothing less than awful.  

You can find a good English language lead on this if you go to the
Stockholm Partnerships for Sustainable Cities site at
www.partnerships.stockholm.se/, click The Projects, Original
Nominations, and then Search for Bogota.  You'll see it.  Complete with
extensive links to direct sources.

With all good wishes,

Eric Britton
