World Cities Day

31-10-2024

Today we celebrate World Cities Day, a day created to draw attention to the challenges and opportunities that our growing cities present. At PENDLR, we see daily how fast cities are developing, and how important it is to think about the livability and sustainability of our urban environment as we grow.

The growth of cities and the need for sustainable mobility

Globally, cities continue to grow in size and population. In Europe, over 80% of the population is expected to live in cities by 2050 according to the European commision. This urban growth brings challenges such as traffic congestion, air pollution and a decline in overall quality of life. Mobility plays a crucial role here. The demand for efficient, clean and accessible transport solutions is more urgent than ever.

This is gradually being reflected in cities as well. More and more infrastructure is being built for cyclists and car parking spaces are giving way to bicycle parking spaces. These cars are then also increasingly parked outside the city, the road being continued by public transport or forms of micromobility. This is reflected in both passenger transport and parcel transport.

At PENDLR, we believe in flexible, efficient and green ways of transport

With the emergence of transport modes such as e-steps, folding bikes, cargobikes and other forms of micromobility, we can contribute to less congested, cleaner and more liveable cities. These forms of micromobility are not only sustainable, but also flexible and efficient in an urban environment. Below are some of the sustainable means of transport in our range, but above all, know that we also offer many parts and accessories for these means of transport.

Working together for a sustainable future

World Cities Day offers a great opportunity to reflect on the future of our cities. At PENDLR, we are convinced that micromobility is an essential pillar for creating sustainable, liveable cities. This is important not only for current generations, but also for the future of our children and grandchildren. Together, we can ensure that urban mobility is no longer a problem, but rather a solution to the challenges of our time.
