Fuck Cars@lemmy.ml•Desire paths can tell us how to design safer, better public spaces.

Clear desire line here in Royal Park. South bound bikes want to go from the West path to the East path without wasted time. This line has been used so much, the junction with the inner path is eroded & now dangerous & a second desire line is forming further North, at a terminus of the East path.
Park management should seal an appropriate bike route without 90 degree turns.
@Showroom7561 Wow! Complaining about you riding in the middle lane when there are parked cars, bus stops & turning traffic in the left lane.
Perhaps there should be some sort of training & testing before people are allowed to drive a car. There doesn’t seem to be any at present <sarcasm>
