Cycling experience in Beijing's urban areas: Bikes share roads with vehicles and pedestrians
Vehicles occupying bike lanes, hidden dangers at T-junctions, and some vehicles going against traffic flow leave almost no space for cyclists. The Beijing municipal government is actively addressing public concerns such as "cycling is strenuous, parking is difficult, and bikes can easily go missing." On September 24, the local standard "Urban Road Space Planning and Design Code" began soliciting public feedback, with hopes of "returning road rights to cyclists and pedestrians." It proposes that for all newly built urban roads in the city, if non-motorized vehicle lanes are provided, car parking spaces will no longer be designated, and existing ones will be gradually phased out to facilitate cycling. Is cycling convenient? What difficulties might one encounter? Recently, I took a public rental bicycle for a firsthand experience.
