The CHIPS project (Cycle Highways Innovation for smarter People transport and Spatial planning) financed by Interreg North-West Europe has been 3 years of knowledge sharing and research between partners from Belgium, the Netherlands...
5000 cyclists and pedestrians per day use Maastunnel in Rotterdam to travel under the city’s main river. Both user groups have their own separated space in the tunnel – pedestrians walk one floor below the cycling path. Maastunnel, in the...
Benelux tunnel, a part of TEN-T road comprehensive network near Rotterdam, was originally meant for motorised traffic only. But during the reconstruction in 2002 the oversight was corrected, and a bicycle tunnel was added. Benelux tunnel is a part...
A special edition of Cycle Highway Academy on Wayfinding took place on 13 September 2018 in Tilburg, Netherlands, with new networking, information exchange and bicycle experience for all the participants. After a welcoming speech...
Car traffic can be “filtered out” on selected streets to create better conditions for walking and cycling, and at the same time maintain necessary access to every location. On the cycle highway Batavierenpad Zuid filtered permeability improves...
Instead of cutting trees to widen carriageway, an old car connection between Nijmegen and Beuningen was turned into a cycle path. Now this tree-lined avenue is a particularly scenic section of cycle highway Batavierenpad Zuid. Beuningen is a...
The F261, the fast cycle route along the Midden-Brabantweg from Waalwijk to Tilburg, becomes the first cycle highway in the Dutch Province of North Brabant with the new signposting. For the final selection of the design, 2 designs were...
Road markings play an important part in cycle highway’s readability and safety. They help the cyclists to follow the route, especially in poor visibility conditions, improve the recognisability of cycle infrastructure for other users, and can also...
In our series of articles showcasing infrastructure of cycle highways we return once more to RijnWaalpad, to examine “het Groentje”. The bridge was incorporated last minute into the design of Nijmegen ring road to avoid interruptions and delays for...
Continuing our journey on RijnWaalpad, the cycle highway from Arnhem to Nijmegen, we arrive to Snelbinder – a two-kilometre long bicycle bridge, used by 6000 cyclists daily. It is interesting both as an engineering accomplishment and from the urban...
Where cycle highways meet busier roads, crossings are often grade-separated to maximise safety and minimise the need of stopping. We revisit RijnWaalpad to see how to design safe, comfortable and attractive bicycle tunnels. Bicycle tunnels...
CHIPS project partner, the Dutch province of Gelderland can be an example on how to minimise the number of stops and interruptions on a cycle highway. Cycling 18 km on the RijnWaalpad between Arnhem and Nijmegen train stations, you only have to...
