After a&nbsp;</span><a href=\"https://www.fietsgemeente.be/fietsrapporten/\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><strong>public survey</strong></span></a><span lang=\"EN-GB\">, three candidates were selected. Together with Genk and Kortrijk, Ghent was nominated in the centre cities category. A consultancy firm then carried out a field study and on Monday 13 May, Ghent was awarded the title of Cycling City 2024 at the ceremony in the Flemish parliament. Ghent had won this award before, in 2015 and 2018.</span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"></span></p><p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The jury praised the investments made in the cycling infrastructure and the fact that the city truly makes space for cyclists, which results in more people cycling. Additionally, some innovations caught their eye, such as the flex parking spaces and the one-and-a-half-kilometre-long cycling street Coupure, which has underpasses for bicycles.</span><span lang=\"EN-GB\"></span></p>\n  \n      </div>\n\n\n\n    \n<div class=\"quote-wrapper\">\n  <div class=\"quote\">\n    <blockquote>\n              <div class=\"content\">\n          <p>\n            This award is a great recognition of all the work done in Ghent to improve the safety and comfort of cyclists.
