The New York City DOT has created an innovative cycle track that gives cyclists safety and separation from cars when accessing the Manhattan Bridge. The area around the bridge is heavily trafficked by cars and trucks, making it challenging for cyclists, but the bridge itself has a protected path and is a vital commuter link between Brooklyn and Manhattan. The new path connects popular cycling neighborhoods in Brooklyn to the bridge and makes it safer for everyone, especially newer cyclists.
Funny what you call innovative.... we have had good infrastructure for decades now in the Netherlands. Not only on a bridge, on ALL roads with average and higher traffic pressure. Nevertheless, I find it great that there is such enthusiasm for cycling in the US. Make it cycling heaven, and we will certainly come over to cycle by the hundreds!
