Looks quite neat, I must say. Based on the bike/electric scooter traffic volume, the bike lanes seem a bit narrow at some points, especially near the bridge. Also a missed opportunity to give bike paths a distinct color, like the red asphalt used in The Netherlands or the blue ones used in Denmark. The crossing in the beginning could use a bike/pedestrian tunnel or bridge, to make the traffic flow better for everyone. It's also better for safety reasons. Anyhow, keep up the good work Helsinki!
Thanks Markus! The wider side of the bridge is paved in red asphalt since it is part of the Baana network. Interestingly this "Itäbaana" was originally going to switch sides under the bridge, but due to safety concerns this plan was scrapped and it will instead cross at level with the light rail and car traffic. You can actually see the future Baana route just after the rails. We shall see how people choose the recommended route (with bike-friendly light cycle🤞) vs. the zigzag shortcut under the bridge. With all the curbs and blind spots it could become even more dangerous than the original plan. 🤷
0:54 that pedestrian crossing sign is in a quite hazardous place in the middle of the street. It was put there so that it won't block the traffic light. But why does it need to be on the bike path? Why not on the side of the car lane? There are three lanes for cars here versus one for bikes.
