Making a U-turn for instance is very easily done on bike in case you run into a traffic jam or accidentally make a wrong turn. You can also change modes very quickly from cycling to walking if confronted with long lines behind stoplights and going with the pedestrians is a faster way to cross an intersection.

Especially in the centre, and about 1km around it. I'm not sure how to include maps, but the Terborgseweg is a prima example. At one of the roundabouts drivers have to left, cross train tracks get past three sets of traffic lights, and then turn right twice, to get to the same location as a cyclist who only has to go straight ahead on the Annekehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13303232666607267415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3102538965694240940.post-19509035803748167572011-02-14T12:44:35.107+01:002011-02-14T12:44:35.107+01:00Klaus: The numbers up the left hand side are relat...Klaus: The numbers up the left hand side are relative times. i.e. at 1.0, both modes take the same time. At 0.8, a bicycle journey takes 80% as long as a car journey, while at 1.1, the car is ten percent quicker than the bike. The distances are along the bottom.<br /><br />The summary at the bottom of the post in italics describes it.David Hembrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14543024940730663645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3102538965694240940.post-89075887776745506112011-02-14T12:37:32.398+01:002011-02-14T12:37:32.398+01:00Thanks, David, nice post.
