This is great. Just back from holiday cycling from Antwerp to ghent and bruge. Brilliant long distance car free routes. Great for kids and family holidays. Imagine if we could say the same for Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Hull!
Ten years ago, the five Flanders provinces began an ambitious dream: a 2,800km network of cycle highways to connect all cities and towns in the region. With a full subsidy from the Flemish government, municipalities have now built 2,000km—like the 25km “F7” from Ghent to Deinze.
