40 years ago Copenhagen was just as car-clogged as anywhere else

I know Copenhagen shares many things with other cities... but wondering if you could help me itemize what we could borrow to improve our use of bicycles in transportation.

40 years ago Copenhagen was just as car-clogged as anywhere else but now 41% of the population arriving at work or education do so on bicycles, from all over the Metro area. 55% of Copenhageners themselves use bicycles each day. They all use over 1000 km of bicycle lanes in Greater Copenhagen for their journeys. Copenhagenizing is possible anywhere.
Copenhagenize.com - Bicycle Culture by Design: The World's Most Bicycle Friendly Cities - from Copenhagenize.com

PS... that copenhagenize site is wonderful. Thank you Mikeal Colleville-Andersen.
