Bavaria: Alliance wants a referendum for a Bavaria-wide cycle network

Munich (dpa / lby) - An alliance of associations and parties is calling for a Bavaria-wide bicycle network and wants to achieve this with a referendum. "There are no cycle paths on well over half of the state or federal roads," said the chairwoman of the General German Bicycle Club (ADFC) in Bavaria, Bernadette Felsch, on Thursday in Munich. The aim of the "Radentscheid" is to make cycling safer and more attractive. The collection of signatures will start on June 16th. The application for approval of the referendum must be signed by at least 25,000 voters.
