But as Wadjda secretly practices her balance on Abdullah\u2019s bike, she grows more determined to get one of her own. Her desire for spokes and wheels grows as she begins to realize everything else that girls and women aren\u2019t permitted to do.

And while the story of these changes often gets simplified in the press, the fact is that the benefits of the redesigns go far beyond cycling. A street with a protected bike lane also has less speeding, shorter pedestrian crossings, less lane-shifting and more predictable movements for drivers, and the opportunity to add more trees and plantings. Injuries to pedestrians, cyclists, drivers, and car passengers drop wherever the new designs go in. And on the East Side, these improvements have been paired with dedicated bus-only lanes with camera enforcement, making service more convenient and attractive for thousands of bus riders.<br \/>\nUNQUOTE<\/p>\n<p class=\"diigo-tags\"><span>tags:<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.diigo.com\/user\/lampertina\/urbanism\">urbanism<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.diigo.com\/user\/lampertina\/walkability\">walkability<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.diigo.com\/user\/lampertina\/vimeo\">vimeo<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"diigo-ps\">Posted from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.diigo.com\">Diigo<\/a>.
