The cycle path, which connects the already existing section of Via La Spezia, starts from the San Giovanni stop of metro A and passes in front of the Lodi stop of Metro C, rejoining the existing network of Via Prenestina, where the tram line runs. 

This connection optimises access between the tram line and the metro network (lines A and C), making it easier to access important university locations such as the Pontifical Lateran University and one of the offices of the IED – European Institute of Design.

The NRRP aims to promote the creation of cycle networks in 40 Italian cities, through interventions of maintenance and/or new construction, for tourist/recreational (tourist cycle paths) and urban (urban cycle paths) purposes. 

Thus, Roma Capitale has set itself the goal of implementing a multi-year programme to promote the use of bicycles as structural means of transport for systematic travel.

This programme will improve accessibility and safety for cyclists in the city, by encouraging greater use of bicycles for daily travel.
