Boost cycling by making Oxford a mini-Holland
Oxford MailTHINGS are changing slowly; more people are using bikes. All councils in Oxfordshire agree we are in the middle of a climate emergency. We will be encouraged to drive less and cycle more, however gradually.\n\nJust like an Oxford campaign to change the way people travel in the east of the city has said: “The zeitgeist is with us.”\n\nMore than £8,000 has been pledged for a campaign to turn part of Oxford into a ‘Mini Holland’ – a nation where there are more bikes than people.
