Study shows why bike lane projects are controversial and what cities can do to make it easier

"Key findings from the study highlight the significance of challenging the status quo to garner support for new initiatives. Despite initial opposition or skepticism, the report suggests that public opinion often shifts in favor of cycling infrastructure once the benefits become evident. However, policymakers are cautioned against adopting a paternalistic approach in promoting active travel schemes, as it may risk alienating segments of the population."

Our country keeps astounding me with how backwards we are.

Banning all cyclists from pedestrian areas is a dangerous move.

There are so many better solutions, such as:
-marked #CycleLanes
-scrapping the #GigEconomy for deliveries
-investing as much in cycle infrastructure as is invested in vehicle infrastructure

Hey folks, there's a #ClimateEmergency underway, please don't carry on as usual

Ah, cycle lanes in Spain, a gift that keeps on giving. Here is an example where adding the cycle lane is pure #enshittification. Before the cycle lane you had a nice, wide road to share with other traffic. No need to give way to traffic coming from side streets. Add a cycle lane and a stop sign for cyclists at each side road. Genius! Of course I ignore it, but I'm doing so at my own risk.

Both incidents were in the borough of #Poole.

Given the change in political make up of the county - Bournemouth recently kicked out it’s two Tory MPs (Tobias Elwood and Connor Burns) I’m hopeful that sound judgement can prevail at local council level too to ensure #cyclists are properly protected within road design.

@karlstanley One of the objections that the worried middle class make against bike lanes is "How will ambulances and fire brigade get to people if the ROAD IS BLOCKED BY A CYCLE LANE?"
#CycleLanes #EmergencyVehicles
This is how

Drivers pass cyclists *a third of a metre closer* when the cyclist is in a painted (not protected) cycle lane

The best part about living in #Europe is that I can get on a train and experience different cultures, architecture etc. We should be copying good, sustainable urbanisation practices (e.g #cyclelanes ) while conserving cities’ identities.

Cooky ideas like putting a traffic cone on a Duke’s statue (à la #glesga ) add extra character to a city, it probably tells us that folk like a drink and roadworks are a commonly occurring thing.These things are fun because they are/were organic though… I think

There are plans for an edible garden, nature play and a cycle lane for St James’ Linear Park. It’s the next phase in developing the park along a skinny kilometre of the Luas Red Line from Basin View in the east to Suir Road Bridge in the west.

I don’t cycle for pleasure but only as a means of getting from A to B.

@BrentToderian this is brilliant. I’d love to see this here in Nz instead of over-engineered hard landscaping solutions.
