The best bike plan starts with a better car plan.
Dutch cities don’t just graft bike lanes onto busy streets. They practice “ontvlechten”; structurally untangling cycling and driving by limiting car speed and access.
Fewer conflicts. Calmer streets. Networks that actually work.

For taxpayers, bike infrastructure is a gift that keeps on giving. An asset that returns annual savings in congestion, maintenance, safety, pollution and healthcare over its lifetime. Stop asking whether your city can afford to invest in cycling. Ask whether it can afford not to.

Nice! It's a reminder that e-scooter riders help beef up the argument for building more protected lanes.

12 MILLION RIDES! 🎉 Chicago’s micromobility network Divvy and Lime has officially hit a new record. Even with the cold setting in, Chicagoans continue to embrace bikes and scooters as an essential way to get around the city. The micromobility boom continues in Chicago!
