The Ministry 1 of Transportation and Communications (MOTC) is planning to allocate 2 special bikeways for cyclists in major metropolitan 3 areas. The plan will first be implemented 4 in Taipei for a trial run, then gradually expand to other cities.
MOTC officials said they plan to designate a special route on Dunhua North Road and Dunhua South Road. The bikeway will be painted in a distinctive 5 color, so it can be distinguished 6 easily.
Bikers applauded the concrete step in answering their repeated calls for the right to public road networks. They have been complaining for many years about the government's inaction to build convenient networks for them, in spite of the government's goal of minimizing air pollution.
However, not all people embrace the new plan.
Motorcyclists, currently higher in numbers than those using public transport systems or bicycles, are concerned that their right to the road will be compromised because they have to share the narrow slow lanes with cyclists, and might be tempted 7 to ride into the fast lanes.
Some experts have urged the government to spend more efforts on mapping out a sound system that can maintain the smooth traffic flow while accommodating a wide variety of transport tools in the urban areas. For example, cyclists should be encouraged to ride short distances then use public transport systems, the experts suggested.
