Since 1997, the network has developed and shared practical approaches to municipal cycling promotion, infrastructure planning and policy implementation. Its own initiatives include the PyöräKompassi municipal assessment tool, the national Kilometrikisa and Talvikilometrikisa campaigns, and active school travel programmes. In 2023–2024, it led the development of Kunnossapito kuntoon, practical guidance covering winter-ready infrastructure, maintenance organisation, procurement, methods and quality management for year-round cycling and walking.
