bikers, from protest to proposal

Waterfront City Council

Monterrey Monterrey this week we saw an example of how authorities offend public participation, when they approved a new traffic regulations which ignored the proposal to include pedestrian and cyclist.

to the council and Mayor Fernando Larrazabal, includes only transit vehicles and would be even dangerous to include cyclists. What a difference from what was done in Mexico City, where the rule is specifically modified to include bicycles! In the video that made fellow bikers Village, you can hear the mayor and council members and, frankly, pitiful arguments.

The submission of proposals

now underway is a moviento public pressure to change the regulations to include the proposed alternatives presented mobility of citizens. We have to wait to see if it results or no results, but urges him to Monterrey itself to include in your vision of the city on foot and cyclists, because the streets in that city, and of course the fate of budgets and work public, are intended for private car.

Meanwhile, it is important to note the huge lobbying that made the youth of Pueblo bikers and those who have much to learn. On its website, as well as Facebook, there are photos and videos to this story. In the press there is also some evidence, here I put just a small sample.
