Promoting sustainable mobility: EU funding for cycling routes in Gornja Radgona

Ljubljana, 26 April 2021 – Government Office for Development and European Cohesion Policy has approved funding for the project “Cycling routes Gornja Radgona, Phase I”. The project implemented by municipality Gornja Radgona under the Agreement on the Development of the Pomurje Region is worth EUR 308 thousand with the European Regional Development Fund contribution standing at EUR 96 thousand.

As part of the project, the municipality will establish safe cycling routes that will enable daily mobility of cyclists, especially from the surrounding areas to the city centre, to the workplace or for other errands. The project will have a significant impact on improving traffic safety and accessibility of the area for weaker road users. It will also promote sustainable mobility and improve conditions for development and for increasing visits of tourist attractions. In the first phase of the project, the municipality will develop two sections of the cycling connection in total length of 733 metres.
