Paris has announced a €200 million cycling plan to deliver 140 kilometres of additional cycle paths and improve safety at 420 junctions by 2032. The programme will also introduce a specialist municipal police unit targeting dangerous driving and trial new warning systems on refuse trucks.
The Plan vélo 2027–2032 combines network expansion with measures to close gaps between existing routes and improve connections to neighbouring municipalities. It includes a further 220 kilometres of contraflow cycling routes, allowing cyclists to travel in both directions on streets that are one-way for motor vehicles...
Safer junctions and connected routes
Work to improve safety at 56 junctions is scheduled for 2027, building on 350 junctions treated since 2020. The city will combine permanent redesigns with quicker interventions that can subsequently be made permanent following evaluation.
