Designing streets for cycling
In this unit, expanding on the earlier discussion about designing streets for walking, we focus on the principles and strategies for designing streets that prioritise cycling.
Conrad takes you on a visual tour through a French city, explaining the principles and various types of cycle tracks and lanes.. Learn the fundamental elements that make cycling infrastructure efficient and accessible, regardless of city scale.
Let’s get rolling and learn about bike-friendly streets!
