====Cycle networks==== [[File:Vélam Amiens.jpg|thumb|Vélam public [[bicycle sharing system]] in Amiens]] Amiens has developed two bike services: Buscyclette and {{interlanguage link|Vélam|fr|3=Vélam|lt=Velam}}. * Buscyclette is a service of rental bikes on demand, created in May 1999. In 2014, nearly 2,400 "green bikes" are available for rent, essentially city bikes but also [[electric bicycle|electric bikes]] (VAE), [[folding bicycle]]s and specific bikes (such as kids bikes, child trailers, [[mountain bike]]s, [[cargo bike]]s, [[tandem bicycle|tandems]]). The rental period varies from half a day to one year. * Velam is a [[bicycle sharing system|bike sharing system]] created on 16 February 2008, an adaptation of the {{interlanguage link|Cyclocity|fr}} system managed by [[JCDecaux]], similar to [[Vélo'v]] in Lyon and [[Vélib']] in Paris. Velam offers 313 bikes distributed every 300 to 400 metres in the center of Amiens and 26 stations. In 2012, [[Communauté d'agglomération Amiens Métropole|Amiens Métropole]] had {{convert|100|km|mi}} of routes for cyclists.<ref name="PDU" /> Despite the development of a bicycle plan in 1997 which was planning the development of {{convert|500|km|mi}} of equipped cycleways, the network of the territory in terms of paths is still incomplete. The blueprint of the bicycle facilities of the agglomeration (SDAC) provides, over a period of 10 years (2014–2024),<ref name="PDU" /> for {{convert|188|km|mi}} of cycle routes and equips 490 sites for the parking of bikes. This plan also includes the deployment of parking facilities over the entire territory of the city, close to the facilities frequented by bikers, as well as {{interlanguage link|Tourne-à-droite cycliste|fr|3=Tourne-à-droite cycliste|lt=cyclist right-turns}} at traffic lights or even the maintenance of existing facilities.
