A new cycling underpass in Utrecht | Bicycle Dutch

Utrecht opened a new cycling underpass in the canal route through the city on the rainy morning of 1 December 2020. The underpass replaces the only remaining at-grade intersection in a main cycle route next to a canal. According to the Utrecht chapter of the Fietsersbond (Cyclists’ Union) it remains now possible to cycle from Houten – via Utrecht – alongside the canal all the way to Amsterdam, a journey of almost 40 kilometres, without seeing a single traffic signal.
