Dutch bike infrastructure, in the form of wide, multiuse paths, is used by countless disabled people every day.
They use the same paths as bicyclists, and are safer than on our broken American sidewalks.

I am, once again, asking @hfxgov.bsky.social to stop driving full size trucks on multiuse paths. Apparently, graffiti removal at rush hour is critically important. Fella wouldn’t move his truck but folded in his mirror so I could literally scrape by 🫠

SDOT just announced they'll be completing the final block of the Beach Drive SW Healthy Street on Alki Point, finally connecting the multiuse path to 63rd Ave SW. This block was not included in the original project, installed in 2024.
Work will start before the end of the year.

Adding a pedestrian lane to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge at a cost of $1 billion as a treat for cycling organizations is a concise illustration of how the groups drive up infrastructure costs
Maryland set to nearly double the size of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge
After years of discussion, Maryland is moving forward with a plan to put eight lanes of traffic on the long span.

I also have it on good authority that they are trying to "cut costs" by removing the multiuse path.

Kind of crazy that we put a multiuse path next to a 65 mph+ freeway, separated it by a chainlink fence and a 2' berm, and said, "Yeah, that looks fine."
