I’m sharing this article on the best bike lanes in the United States:

Holbrook, A. (February 12, 2024) “The 5 Principles That Make America’s Best Bike Lanes: A Lot More Than Painted Lines,” Velo, https://velo.outsideonline.com/urban/urban-gear/five-principles-the-best-bike-lanes/ [Last accessed: 2/15/2024]

This is a follow-up on an article on the best new bike lanes or bikeways that I shared earlier. This article features an interview of the author of the previous article about what features distinguish these bike lanes over others that have been implemented. Definitely, bike lanes should be designed beyond the usually painted lines that offer little protection to cyclists.

Here are examples of bike lanes in the Philippines:

Painted bike lanes along Ortigas Avenue Extension, Cainta, Rizal

Protected bike lane along Katipunan Avenue (C-5), Quezon City
