Renewed focus on bicycle and fat bike rules in shopping areas

The municipality of Zoetermeer is once again drawing attention to the rules for bicycles and fat bikes in shopping areas. The municipality is doing this to reduce nuisance and unsafe situations.

Text carts with rules

Several shopping areas have information carts displaying rules for bicycles and fat bikes. These carts remind visitors that cycling is not permitted in pedestrian areas during the times indicated. In this way, the municipality aims to provide greater clarity and raise awareness among cyclists.

Enforcement and fines

In shopping areas, enforcement measures are in place against cycling in pedestrian areas and riding on the sidewalk. Anyone who fails to comply with the rules will be fined.

With this approach, the municipality is working to improve peace and safety in shopping areas. This will ensure that Zoetermeer remains a pleasant city to shop and visit.
