Policies

Maynooth Cycling Group strongly endorse the  policies put forward by international urbanists to promote cycling and reclaim towns and cities for people and communities rather than cars:

  • Keep scale dense and low
  • Turn car parks into public squares
  • Encourage student living
  • Honour the human scale
  • Populate the core
  • Reduce traffic and parking gradually
  • Adapt the (city) townscape to changing seasons
  • Convert streets into pedestrian thoroughfares
  • Promote cycling as a major mode of transportation
