220 Dutch municipalities are now participating in the Doortrap programme. The Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management hopes to reduce the number of traffic casualties among the elderly by means of courses, a bicycle check or trying out a different type of bicycle. “This program is fantastic,” Harbers says. “People can practice, get tips and very nice contacts are created. That way we keep it really fun, and especially safe for everyone.”
