Cycle lanes for micro-mobility operators

About

The development of infrastructure for micromobility is becoming an important task for cities amid the growing popularity of this mode of transport. According to statistics, after the introduction of cycle lanes and bicycle lanes, the accident rate on the streets decreases by up to 40%.

What we did:

We developed projects to organise temporary cycle lanes for 6 Moscow streets: Tsvetnoy Boulevard, Dobrolyubova Street, 10th Anniversary of October Street, Efremova Street, Donskaya Street and Konniy Lane. These projects enabled the organisation of dedicated infrastructure for kickshare users, cyclists

Design solutions

Moscow operators of micromobility services came up with an initiative to improve the infrastructure for scooters. Together with the Moscow City Road Traffic Managment Centre, 6 streets were selected where it was possible to create an additional lane for micro mobility facilities within the existing dimensions without worsening motor vehicle traffic.

These temporary cycle lanes are realised in markings, which allows for extreme cost reduction and speed of implementation.

We developed 6 projects with temporary bike lane infrastructure, allowing scooter users to enjoy summer Moscow while safely travelling in a dedicated lane.
