This road turns into a cycle path, goes over a bridge which crosses a cycle underpass and then crosses a road.

This allows cyclists to take a much more direct route than drives travelling in the same direction.

Play the video to see how this all works.

It may look as if I go through a red light. I don't. The red is for pedestrians, and no pedestrian has pressed a button. The bike light has a sensor and turns green for myself and the bike going the other way.

The glass barrier at the left hand side of the picture has been erected to reduce noise from the 70 km/h speed limit road behind it. The residential roads joined by the bike path have a 30 km/h speed limit.
