Activities within the week Activities within the week

Alta organises activities during EUROPEANMOBILITYWEEK 2011, taking into account the annual theme.

All week
Vi vil få innført gratis by- og lokalbuss under hele mobilitetsuka, og aktivt oppfordre flest mulig til å prøve buss fremfor egne motordrevne kjøretøy. Samtidig ser vi på om vi skal lage noen dokument som kan legges ut på hjemmesiden hvor man setter opp lit regnestykker og bevisstgjøring ang transport og kostnader.

Further info
Som sykkelby oppgraderes en god del av sykkelvegnettet i Alta i år. Her utbedres dekke (asfalten), her ryddes det for bedre sikt (fjerning av busk og kratt), utbedring av krysningspunkt (skråstilte fortauskanter) og oppsett av lyspunkt der dette mangler.
