I guess the title wants to say that despite already having the best bicycle infrastructure in the world, massive investments are still being made.

Frankly, the article doesn’t make that case very well. €65 million on a population of about half a million is about €130 per head. Over a 5 year period, that is €26 per year. I wouldn’t call that massive.

https://fietsberaad.nl/Tour-de-Force-English/Home aims for “an increase of 20 percent in the amount of bicycle kilometres in 2027, compared to 2017”. They don’t mention costs, but I would think that’s quite a bit more expensive.
