Democrats CD&V, place question marks at the figures for cycling infrastructure that the Flemish minister of Mobility and Public Works, Ben Weyts (N-VA), extract. Who says that there is a historically high amount of the bike goes, last year was 138 million euros. But according to Flemish member of parliament, Dirk de Kort (CD&V) plans and budgets established, “but we can’t see achievements on the ground”, as he says in The Standard .
Weyts announced the past five years, 64 projects, of missing links (or missing links) – mostly fietsbruggen and tunnels. That were good for a total of almost 85 million euros. If The Short there the projects, filtering information out that is either not always performed, or that all were ready before 2014 or who doesn’t fietsbruggen, then he keeps 24 achievements, good for 26.3 million euros.
in Addition, he states that large percentages of what the general expenditure for cycling infrastructure as ‘fietsgeld’ listed, go to other things: expensive expropriation, coordination, archaeological research, carpoolstudies, construction of a roundabout and even soil. “That record of 138 million so that you have to with a grain of salt,” says The Brief. Also, the Cyclists feel that messages about holdings are at odds with the achievements on the site.
