Norwegians _loves_ it when foreigners says something nice about us! So of course a great video saying that we're doing something right gets an article in one of the two biggest local newspapers in the relevant city! :D

And if you haven't seen the video from @notjustbikes yet, well prepare yourself to get your mind blown by a tunnel in sunny, warm, basically tropical city of Bergen, Norway

“U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has ordered officials to stop action on all Biden-era discretionary grants to build bike lanes and other ‘green infrastructure’ so the agency can review the project for possible removal.” 🤬

It not be as high a level of #BikeInfrastructure as the vaunted #BryantAveBikeway in @cityminneapolis.bsky.social, but I sure think @stlouispark.bsky.social knocked it out of the park with the #CedarLakeRoadBikeway! Separated, cleared in winter, reasonably wide, ... #TopNotch #BikeMore

Cedar Lake Road bikeway. Pavement markings show a bicycle symbol and an arrow indicating direction of travel. Bikeway is separated horizontally and vertically with a curb from driving lane.

Really interesting Chicago program for encouraging students to ride a bike to school.

Their feedback about #bikeinfrastructure is really interesting. Unfortunately, the girls’ feedback was they don’t feel safe.

You can construct cyclable cities in Cities: Skylines I, but to create dedicated bike paths you might need the After the dark DLC. Note also the dedicated public transport and services bridge. Like in real life closing this bridge to general trafic greately reduced traffic jams downtown.

Interesting, I have determined a spot (with bicycle lanes) that really could use separated lanes and really good lighting in my town; I don't normally go there in evening hours but there is a HUGE amount of local, economically driven bicycle and scooter traffic there (between people living in apartments and the grocery store and Walmart neighborhood store) and lots of issues with cars ignoring those pedestrians and bicyclists. Unfortunately, probably the folks who don't have the time or money to go ask for that stuff. #BikeInfrastructure #MultimodalTransportation #BikeTooter

Freeway intersection which has a lot of evening bicycle and pedestrian traffic, but is NOT very friendly to either in the dark.

When biking infrastructure is only seen as "recreational", it leads to design choices that make it unreliable for practical transportation use.

"We're not seeing drivers use the new bridge we built" with a picture of a highway overpass severed in half

Interesting take-away from the ARE-205-8/1/16/22/19 report from the Swiss Government. Low education people put a higher importance on improving the car infrastructure than high education ones. For bike infrastructure, you see the reverse pattern (albeit less strongly).

A graph (in german) showing priorities according to education level.

Car infrastructure: bridge over the creek

Pedestrian/bike infrastructure: path under the bridge that floods and gets muddy every time it rains

This is what you get when walking and biking are seen solely as recreation, rather than critical transit.

Enjoying Agnieszka (Wheels on a Bike)'s friendly and inclusive commentary as she cycles through Toronto. Vicarious cycle touring. #bikeinfrastructure #ebikes youtube.com/live/RJ1bhntz3jk?s

From just my couple weeks of using it, being able to turn onto or cross College Ave. farther from the center of Davis (where drivers are more focused on beating the light than looking for cyclists) has felt so much safer! Thank you to everyone else who supported this change at the January Davis Square meeting or emailed the city about it, and of course to the Mobility and Engineering departments for implementing it! (2/2)

View from the other side of the removed gate, replaced with flex posts in the middle of the lane and, Do Not Enter, signs with smaller, Except Bicycles, stickers in the middle.

Very quick look at Madison's first 4" bike signal

"Normalized but Marginalized" is also the impression I get from Copenhagen infrastructure: Yes we want you to ride bikes but never forget you're less important than cars when it comes to convenience or safety, you're rubbing elbows with pedestrians while cars spread their crotches across four mostly empty lanes. If cars want to turn, you share, etc. #BikeInfrastructure #ClimateAction #FuckCars #CarsRuinCities, Germany edition
