    You know how Belgium does this? Designate the entire length of the road as “bike priority street”, which means 30km/h max and no passing the bikes. Doesn’t require a scrap of extra planning, construction or what have you.

    Sure, you put the bikers at the mercy of the drivers, but hey, gotta know what to sacrifice.

      The Netherlands also does this. They create ‘Bicycle streets’ or ‘fietsstraten’ where drivers have to give priority to and aren’t allowed to pass cyclists. Way better than this and doesn’t require too much construction in principle.
