Notice, NO curbs for cyclists, just a smooth connection.
To be honest, I don't really understand why our engineers have problems with things like this. It seems to be a struggle for them to understand how to do drainage properly, but it's not like the Netherlands is a dry place with no drainage issues. FWIW...I almost never seen water pooling the way we do in Ontario.
