There are lanes for cars, where they can even enter the tram lane to turn; no bike lanes; and narrow pedestrian sidewalks. Ugh. #urbandesign #waroncars #zagreb #croatia03 Jul 2026 18:02 +0000at://did:plc:ghv727iceecipe4uksuepibe/app.bsky.feed.post/3mpr4xpzztk2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/thirdplace.bsky.social/post/3mnr5xugfr22oSolna municipality needs a bike lane design language! Color won’t fix safety, but it makes navigation intuitive. Which do you prefer: turquoise, red, or green?

Out of ALL transportation modes, why do e-scooters get to hog space meant for pedestrians and cyclists? 🤔 Instead of stealing a sidewalk or bike rack, why not convert just ONE car parking spot into a scooter drop-off zone?
