HB04212: AN ACT INSTITUTIONALIZING THE USE OF BICYCLES AS AN ALTERNATIVE MODE OF TRANSPORTATION, ESTABLISHING APPROPRIATE INFRASTRUCTURE AND FACILITIES, APPROPRIATING FUNDS THEREFOR, AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES
This bill aims to institutionalize the use of bicycles as an alternative mode of transportation in the Philippines by establishing bike-friendly communities nationwide. This will help reduce air pollution, promote a healthy lifestyle, and ease traffic congestion.
A notable provision of this bill is the requirement for designated bicycle lanes in all primary and secondary roads. This will provide safe and exclusive lanes for bicycle riders, encouraging more people to use bicycles for commuting and recreation.
