Length of cycle paths more than doubles in six years

There are now 37,000 kilometres of cycle paths in the Czech Republic, 20,000 more than six years ago, CzechTourism said on Thursday. That distance is similar to the figure for Germany, which is over four times bigger, said the state agency. However, the quality of the Czech Republic’s cycle paths is another matter, said a representative of the transport research authority, adding that there was also a lack of supplementary services for cyclists in this country.
