Where are bicycle paths built? How are cycling conditions planned in Helsinki and is it possible to affect the process? Everything you need to know about bicycle traffic in Helsinki will be available for you at the City Planning Department’s exhibition space Laituri from April 14th onwards.
The exhibition allows you to find out more about new cycle routes, and a simulator will allow you try them out in a matter of minutes. It also offers various bicycle traffic games, so come and test your knowledge of traffic rules or what kind of a cyclist you are.
The visual look and contents of the exhibition have been planned and realized in close cooperation with the Design for Everyday Mobility (LAD) project. The appearance and elements of the exhibition are designed by Metropolia’s student Sofia Frantsi specialization in Interior Architecture, and also the production, the bike simulator and the mobile games are carried out by students and alumni of Metropolia.
