RECREATIONAL BICYCLING AND THE USE OF RECREATIONAL CYCLE TRACKS IN TOURIST AREAS

REKREATIEF FIETSEN EN HET GEBRUIK VAN REKREATIEVE FIETSPADEN IN TOERISTISCHE GEBIEDEN

The motive for this study was the discussion about the future need for cycle tracks for recreational use. The opinion was that in some cases the need for cycle tracks would increase, whereas in others there was doubt that there would be any need for cycle tracks. The first chapter discusses the purpose of recreational cycle tracks. The second chapter gives a review of the study. The third chapter gives an answer to the questions of recreational cycling and the recreational use of cycletracks, as well as the demand for the construction of cycle tracks. In the fourth chapter some political recommendations are made. /TRRL/
