Why This “Anti-Car Labyrinth” Is Actually Brilliant https://video.canadiancivil.com/videos/watch/2aa826d2-520d-4401-9154-5f3b0aa1ca06 All over the world, cities are trying to make biking safer. But one design that’s totally normal in bike utopia (the Netherlands) still causes confusion and even outrage elsewhere. This is a new bike intersection in Montreal, and people online were not happy.

A few have been installed in the UK in the last year or two, with the predictable clamour of "the end is nigh", but they seem to work well for everyone once people are used to them.

I came here from YouTube to watch it on this distributed platform instead. It still has 100 times more viewers on YouTube than on PeerTube. Lets hope we can help shift traffic here.

Because I'd be perfectly happy if they replaced all of those controlled intersections with traffic circles.

No wonder Montrealers cycle in the winter--I would too if I had dedicated lanes like this.
