What is it?
Zincir is a system which aims to instill in university students the habit of using bicycles in their daily commutes, to remove obstacles against the students’ bike use by establishing bike lanes and shared bike networks, starting with pilot areas. Thanks to this, the students will have easier access to bikes.
Why?
Bicycles are not regarded as means of transportation, university students do not use bicycles for transportation, and individuals who grow up in this culture gravitate towards car ownership. As a consequence, the number of cars in traffic and carbon emissions are on the rise.
