The opposition Christian Democrats (KDH) are proposing to reward employees for commuting to work by bicycle, KDH spokeswoman Lenka Kovar said, adding that to this end, they are preparing legislation aimed at motivating people to cycle to work.
Through this measure, they also want to combat the number of cars on the roads and traffic jams, while promoting ecological solutions. They also want to appeal to the Transport Ministry to build more cycle paths.
The Christian Democrats pointed out that it's common abroad to encourage cycling to work through various benefits. They referred to the findings of the Parliamentary Institute, which prepared an analysis supporting cycling to work.
