Cycle tracks

Denmark, and especially Odense and Copenhagen, are notable for its extensive system for bicycle transportation. Nearly one-fifth of all trips in Copenhagen are by bicycle, and for home-to-work commutes, nearly one third of all trips are by bicycle. Odense has been appointed the "bicycle-city of the year" because of the vast amount of bicycle-tracks in the town. A complete network of 350 km all-weather serviced tracks are laid out in the town - this is as much as some states in Germany.

• Cycle tracks: Danish cycle tracks comprise of a whole network of road area exclusively designated for bicycle traffic. Generally these cycle tracks run one-way on either side of the road, as a separate lane system between the center of the road, driven on by motor vehicles, and the sidewalk. Where there is parallel parking, the cycle tracks ard generally found outside the row of cars, between the parked cars and the sidewalk. Cycle tracks are usually wide enough for two bicycles to ride side-by-side (2.2m), particularly in urban areas. This allows for passing on the lefthand side and a greater space buffer between cyclists and motor vehicles. In Copenhagen's 2002-2012 Cycle Policy, the city described plans to widen some of the lanes to fit 3 bikes across (3.5m) in particularly congested areas. On the main-roads, the roads are usually separated into two or three lanes, each with its own traffic lights and directional arrows, so as to assist bikers in getting faster from one point to another during rush-hours.

Traffic lights will sometimes differ where there are several lanes of traffic. ...
