one dutch road over 200 years

Posted: August 21st, 2009 | Author: newamsterdamize | Filed under: bike lane, livable streets, video | No Comments »

From hembrow.blogspot.comMark Wagenbuur has made a great new video showing how a street in Utrecht, the Amsterdamsestraatweg, has evolved over 200 years. Mark says “Good cycling infrastructure is also possible in old streets. This street in Utrecht (Netherlands) was designed by Napoleon when the Netherlands were part of the French Empire in 1812. It was part of the ‘Route ImpĂ©riale no. 2′ which connected Paris via paved direct roads with Amsterdam. The street design was changed several times in 200 years. It got the separate cycle paths that exist today around the year 2000.”

every morning, i ride over the wburg bridge and have to deal with countless fixies racing up and down buzzing me like i’m some kinda of mile marker. in my ideal world, fixes and unicycles would be vanquished to bike polo and interpretive floor dance competitions… after watching these two women, i’m extending my exemption to ballets or operas… (h/t bikehacks.com)
