A car-free bicycle highway marks attitudinal shift


Germany has opened the first three-mile stretch of a bicycle highway that will eventually span over 62 miles, connecting 10 western cities including Duisburg, Bochum, and Hamm, as well as four universities.

And this highway is an entirely separate roadway that will remain completely car-free.


(Motor vehicles are major contributors to global carbon pollution and so this switch to human powered transport is significant and it marks a significant attitudinal shift, a small but important change – Robert McLean.)
