The cycle paths

The cycle paths are protected routes or in any case reserved for bicycles, where motorized traffic is generally excluded. The purpose of these routes is to separate cycle traffic from motorized traffic and pedestrian traffic, which have different speeds, to improve road safety and facilitate the movement of vehicles. Precisely for the greater safety of cyclists, they also play the role of a tool for shifting mobility quotas from private motorized vehicles to bicycles, thus reducing congestion and pollution.

In this section we intend to propose all the useful information for designing a cycle path, geometric and altimetric data, regulatory references and design schemes.
