New bike path
On todays route, to Dutch standards through the middle of nowhere, I noticed that a new bike path is constructed (about 3-4 km long) along a quiet road. Even I was surprised that we go to this kind of trouble.

I think we should conquer NL and take the bike paths. -- Jay Beattie. |

Even I was surprised that we go to this kind of trouble. https://photos.app.goo.gl/gAFqDSnOECBcxETP2 That almost looks like an American width path. I don't know the laws and regulations in NL but California and many of its cities have rules about that. If you build a road or part of it anew (tear out, re-routing, new intersection and similar) you have to install bike facilities of at least class II (bike lanes). If you plop down a major housing development you must include class I facilities (bike paths or MUP) to that. Which is great. Lou Wow, I guess that's what you get when you don't have to pay for cruise missiles. That's what you get when other people pay for most of the cruise missiles. ... I think we should conquer NL and take the bike paths. Vladimir will do that after holding a "referendum", if he finds there's Russians riding on those bike paths. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ |

Highest point 40 meters, lowest point 20 meter....sigh... Lou |

The roads were quite bad though. Cracks, potholes, missing asphalt pieces. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ I live in Noord Limburg. Moving 70 km to the south means a daily commute by car of 1 hour one way. No thanks. Lou |
