Seems like they're not only able to accommodate cyclists but able to achieve a much higher level of service for drivers as well.
Amazing. Pretty sure we don't have anything close to that. No ubiquitous sensors for sure.
"Before, it was believed green waves would make life better for people, but that is simply not true. It was very difficult to arrange and only if you were lucky it would work, for one direction, possibly."
So maybe that's how to make bi-directional Erb and Bridgeport work.
Also the warning-for-green, which exists in a more rudimentary form in some European countries as the yellow-red before green. Switzerland has it but Paris doesn't.
