Suggestive bike lanes of just 1.25 m are far too narrow for safe and comfortable cycling. They even invite drivers to overtake dangerously close — we need complete infrastructure, not half-baked concepts

What happened to the bike lane on #pontjosephbechlux ?

The advantage of red bike lanes is that you can easily spot bad design and bike lanes that are not connected.

Connecting bike lanes is overrated ... 🙄

The planned bike lane on Kirchberg for the tram extension (K2A) is once again not continuous. This fragmented design creates conflict between cyclists and pedestrians. If we’re serious about sustainable mobility, we need coherent planning—not another patchwork solution

Quo vadis, Velosexpresswee Richtung Norden?
@mmtp-lu.bsky.social @yurikobackes.bsky.social
D'N7 géif sech ubidden, fir endlech d'Gepiddels vu Veloswee zu Walfer op laang Siicht lasszegin. Anerwäerts verbaut een de Projet "Velosexpresswee" wuel fir Joren. Wou soll en dann nach duerchgoen?

Missed opportunity: @yurikobackes.bsky.social didn’t respond to the criticism of the narrow 1.50 m bike lanes on CR154. It would’ve been the right moment to rethink and improve the project. In 🇳🇱, 2 m is the new norm – Luxembourg still has a long way to go for safe cycling.

👉 Cyclists are still expected to share bus lanes, and the bike path network is fragmented and inconsistent.

👉 The final roundabout lacks any connection to Rue de l’Église, cutting off a crucial link in the network.

👉 Even worse: in some sections, the bike lane is only 1.00 m wide, far below any standard for comfort or safety. 🚫

📉 This is not what a safe and future-proof cycling route looks like – and certainly not the fast cycling route promised in the #PNM2035. The planned connection between Heisdorf and Dommeldange? Still nowhere to be found.

The N7 in Walferdange is finally being redesigned – but the cycling infrastructure still falls far short! 🚴♀️❗
After years of waiting, the redesign of the N7 in #Walfer is finally moving forward – but anyone on a bike quickly sees the flaws.

🚲✨ To truly make this pilot project a success, we urge the Ministry of Mobility to review and improve the lane design.
A pioneering project deserves world-class standards – let's make rural cycling truly safe and inviting in Luxembourg! 🚴♀️

🚴♂️ A strong political step – but technical execution still lags behind best practice.
👏 Kudos to Minister @yurikobackes.bsky.social for the vision!
👎 Sadly, as too often, Ponts & Chaussées fails to fully deliver real cycling safety.

Narrow lanes create the illusion of safety but not actual protection.
Vulnerable cyclists – children, seniors, less confident riders – will feel exposed and unsafe. 🚴♀️🚴
Infrastructure should invite, not intimidate.

Suggestive lanes offer no physical separation.
Narrow lanes make it difficult for drivers to maintain a safe overtaking distance at 50 km/h or more. 🚗💨🚴♂️
Without enough space, passing becomes dangerous by design. (Hello #RueDesAubepinesLux)

But let's look closer. The new “suggestive bike lanes” are only 1.25 meters wide per side. 🚨 That’s far too narrow to be safe, especially at 50 km/h! Let’s dive into why this matters. @mmtp-lu.bsky.social @yurikobackes.bsky.social

They promised us bike lanes. They promised safer streets. They promised change. Two years after the elections - NOTHING.
No more delays. No more excuses.
Your promises are not PR slogans – they’re responsibilities.
