You’ll barely notice, but this arterial road is intersected by several side streets. Rather than sinking humans down into the space of crossing cars, the foot and cycle paths are raised, continuous and prioritized—reducing driver entitlement. This should be standard everywhere.

People like you make me feel so lucky to live in 🇳🇱. I really hope examples like this will be followed anywhere in the world. Because living in an unmotorized environment makes much more happy and is healthier.

Such streets are so safe that most people don’t even wear safety helmets. You don’t see that at streets that prioritize cars

I love the typical ‘Dutchness’ of this.

Lovely example of how cities can be designed to serve people, not just cars. I'd love to see this kind of infrastructure prioritized in my own city.

The Dutch have a notable aversion to rain pants and bike helmets. The reason is straightforward: neither is seen as remotely stylish or appealing.

Junctions of side roads and Fulham Palace Road in Hammersmith have had raised pads for many years to allow ‘continuation’ of the pavement. While some drivers still disrespect pedestrian priority, they certainly make it more obvious who has right of way

It's raining and they are riding bicycles - are they mad?

Yep. Taxi thought twice?.. Although I've never seen a car cut in front of either a cyclist or pedestrian at this junction.

Hold on I know that cycle path

grew up and lived there but only just realised the distinction - thanks to you you for pointing it out
