Danish Bike Superhighway

Bicycling Magazine reports on Copenhagen’s plans for a bike superhighway. According to the report:

Considered one of Europe’s two “bicycle capitals” along with Amsterdam, Copenhagen counts more bicycles than people and cycling is so popular that its numerous bike paths can become congested. Two-wheeler traffic jams are especially regular on the main Noerrebrogade thoroughfare used by around 36,000 cyclists a day.

So the plan is:

The jammed bike paths will be widened up to four metres (yards) on either side of the road, which will itself will be reserved for buses only. The idea is to make…”Europe’s great cycling street”
