D3: The large toolkit of joint working groups at the local level: We take care of cycling!

Joint working groups at the local level have a large number of tools to promote cycling. Among other things, representatives from participating local authorities report of publicity campaigns, planner workshops, use of bicycle counters and parliamentary evenings. In nearly all federal states, there are local joint working groups for cycling (AGFK, AGFS, AGNH, RAD.SH, RAD.SN).
