在2019年Velo-city的第二天，参与者有机会在由欧洲自行车联盟(ECF)传播主管Niccolo Panozzo领导的“自行车城市和地区”会议上听到欧洲主要城市分享的一些最佳实践。

哥本哈根化设计公司首席执行官Morten Kabell通过颁发哥本哈根化指数2019，这是世界上最具自行车型城市的全面和全面排名的全面和全面排名。

该项目于2011年始于2011年，现在处于第五次迭代。其主要目标是鼓励城市保持动力，更具创新性。This year’s index is a result of several months of research, evaluating cities with four main parameters of bicycle-friendliness: streetscape parameters (bicycle infrastructure, bicycle facilities, traffic calming), cultural parameters (gender split, modal share for bicycles, modal share increase, indicators of safety, image of the bicycle, cargo bikes) and ambition parameters (advocacy, politics, bike share, urban planning). This year’s edition includes a lot of success stories, among which are the cities of Seattle with its very successful regulation and control of the ‘private free-floating bike share marketplace”; Lagos with its cargo bike-powered recycling programme; Izmir with the ‘Fancy Women Bike ride’ and Brussels with its identity programme ‘Bike for Brussels”. Mr. Kabell announced that the top 20 cities will be presented during the 3rd day of Velo-city 2019 and underlined that ‘This year the competition for the top spots was extremely tight with a large number of inspirational success stories among the cities. More than that, we are happy to reveal that 4 newcomer cities have made the cut for the first time in the Index’s eight-year history”.

随后，巴伦西亚副市长Giuseppe Grezzi介绍了巴伦西亚及其在过去几年里向自行车友好型城市的转变。他介绍了该市在创建更好的自行车基础设施方面取得的进展。在过去四年里，巴伦西亚巩固了可持续的交通方式，并使骑自行车出行的人数增加了21.5%。他的演讲的另一个要点是在2017年创建的自行车环，这使得现有的自行车网络和4.8公里的自行车基础设施之间有了更好的连接。2018年是巴伦西亚城市的亮点，当地自行车机构的创建，其目标是监督和建议新的自行车基础设施，推动更好和更多的自行车停车场和停车位，以及组织推广自行车习惯和活动。

最后，负责移动性和公共场所的巴黎市的副市长以及欧洲委员会总统的副市长Najdovski介绍了巴黎及其进入更自行车友好的城市的演变。他在巴黎提供了几条街道的具体示例，展示了允许增加自行车使用的变化。This included the creation of more bike lanes on busy streets, turning a river bank into a park where people can cycle, an idea that resulted in more than 1000 cyclists registered per hour on a weekday, as well as the ‘Car-Free Sundays’ initiative. He ended the session by presenting the Paris Cycle plan 2015-2020 that has the objective of tripling cycling in Paris by 2020. One of its main priorities is to secure the movement of cyclists and to ensure the right traffic conditions, especially on the most circulated streets of the city by creating bilateral paths or bidirectional cycling facilities.
