IMAGES: IrishCycle.com is — as readers will know — focused a lot on infrastructure. It’s worth also looking at the level and type of cycling safe and attractive infrastructure will provide for.
Here’s A Portrait of Cycling in Utrecht, taken over a few days last October.

Hello Reader... IrishCycle.com is a reader-funded journalism publication. Effectively it's an online newspaper covering news and analyses of cycling and related issues, including cycle route designs, legal changes, and pollical and cultural issues.
There are examples, big and small, which show that the reader-funded or listener-funding model can work to support journalism -- from the Dublin Inquirer and The Guardian to many podcasts. To make it work for IrishCycle.com, it just needs enough people like you to believe!
Monthly subscriptions will give IrishCycle.com's journalism a dependable base of support. But please don't take free access for granted. Last year IrishCycle.com had an average of 15,800 readers per month and we know our readers include people who cycle and those who don't, politicians, officials and campaigners.
I know only a small percentage of readers will see the value of keeping this open enough to subscribe, that's the reality of the reader-funded model. But more support is needed to keep this show on the road.
The funding drive was started in November 2021 and, as of the start of February, 210 readers have kindly become monthly subscribers -- thank you very much to all that have!
But currently, it's only around 1.3% of readers who subscribe. So, if you can, please join them and subscribe today via ko-fi.com/irishcycle/tiers

Very few helmets !
great pictures cian i like the proper lanes and the signage something we lack. the pride lane is interesting and something that could be done here as part of incluson.Looking at one or 2 pictures which showed large groups beside a bus at a stop do they have an advance light as id say it could be frightening starting off in a big group beside a quick moving bus
Be assured; The buses and bicycles have different traffic signals at this junction.
8 men 6 woman in the cycle lane.
