I live in the #PNW. My #city has a population of 175,096 (2021). It also has:
46 miles of shared-use paths
187 miles of on-street #bicycle lanes
71 miles of signed #bikeways/neighborhood greenways
5 #bicycle-#pedestrian bridges over the main river through town
2 bicycle-pedestrian bridges over major roads/highways
I think that's rather good. I would not say my city is an ideal city, but it is better than okay & getting better.

Our government's solution for #ActiveMobility is merely a band-aid. #BikeLanes that aren't even all connected. It's short-term.
I'm rather disappointed none of the LGUs have come up with plans/designs for elevated #bikeways to combine with road-level bikeways.
Seems all our architects and urban planners have dropped dead from COVID. ๐คจ
