Strasbourg by Bike: Riding Brand New Cycling Infrastructure (Timelapse)

In 2025 and 2026, major cycling infrastructure projects were completed across Strasbourg, significantly expanding and upgrading the city’s bike network.

For this ride, I intentionally relied almost exclusively on newly built or redesigned cycling facilities to cross the city from south to north. The result is a continuous, mostly protected route that illustrates how Strasbourg’s cycling network is evolving.

This video also includes before/after comparisons to highlight the transformation of key sections.
