This is an intersection close to where I live, as you can see there are no designated bike paths and cyclists have to be in the middle of the road to ride. In this intersection, you can see how the illegal parking in the intersection blocks the field of view for drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists. Combine this road infrastructure network common in the vast majority of Portugal with a car driving culture and you get a very constant uncomfortable situation for cyclists.
Didn’t know NYC had segregated bicycle lanes within their existing road infrastructure! (barring the Hudson and East River boardwalks)
A great example of the Dutch model being implemented overseas.
Hi everyone, my name is João, I’m a Masters student of Sustainable Urbanism and Territorial Planning from Portugal.
I have a background in Geography and Urban Planning/Studies from my bachelor’s degree. I believe that the analysis and subsequent mapping of the territory, which is something very much ingrained into me during my geographical studies, helps understand the territory that will be a target of urban interventions and infrastructural development.
