Cycling has long been recognised as beneficial for a whole range of
environmental, health, economic and social reasons, but somehow it
seems to always be on the decline. What does it take to &amp;#39;Make Cycling
Viable&amp;#39;?
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This two-day symposium seeks to answer that question.
Are road conditions too dangerous- and if so how should that be
tackled? Is cycling really that practical for modern lifestyles? How do
cycling groups get organised, projects get going, and what are
government and other official agencies doing? What is going on outside
New Zealand and what can we learn from it?
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Using interactive
video technology- itself an underused &amp;#39;green&amp;#39; energy saver- we will
hear two experienced leading thinkers from Britain, and in person the
leader of Australia&amp;#39;s National Cycling Strategy developmen. New
Zealand&amp;#39;s own Cycling Strategy Foundation Project will present its
draft recommendations. Political and government policy leaders will
give main papers and specialist workshops will be held on topics
ranging from local policy, engineering, safety and health, advocacy,
and even how the weather affects cycling. We&amp;#39;ll hear first-hand from
thos who attended the world &amp;#39;VeloMondial&amp;#39; conference in Amsterdam the
month before. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This symposium is aimed at engineers, cyclists,
planners, policy makers and anyone intrigued by what it takes to &amp;#39;Make
Cycling Viable.&amp;#39;  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
