B

Do you know that more than half of the people living in Copenhagen,the Danish capital,ride a bicycle to school or work every day? The city has set a goal to become the world's first carbon neutral capital by 2025.

Cycling is actually a faster and more time-saving way to travel in Copenhagen. That's why you’ll find more bicycles than people and more than 5 times as many bicycles than cars in this city!

Copenhagen is a cycling paradise (天堂). The city has gone all out in encouraging its cyclists — it has built

more than 1,000km of cycling roads,and added footrests and handrails at junctions (^cXS&P) . The city planners have even added 6 bike butlers’ who help park cycles and carry out free thoughtful repairs as a 6 thank-you’.... wow!No wonder Copenhagen's cyclists hardly break traffic rules. Several of the city's main streets are closed to cars and used for bicycle lanes (車(chē)道) instead. Bike lanes along major roads are wide and slightly raised.

Copenhagen is developing 38 bike super-highways along the main city roads. The city's light rail system has recently allowed cyclists to bring their bikes on board,free of cost.

The city planners are working hard to make cyclists feel safe. So when cyclists get closer to a major junction, sensors (傳感器) a little way down the streets ‘tell’ the traffic lights to give them a ‘green’ signal, which means cyclists are seldom held up by traffic. Isn’t that cool? One smooth continuous journey from home to school!Even in the bitterly cold winters,the cycling lanes are cleared of snow before car lanes.

Lately,however,the city is facing a new problem - there are not enough parking lots for cyclists. Some have even now started leaving their cycles just about anywhere. Perhaps the best way to deal with it is to make more space for bicycles or build underground parking lots.

At the same time,other big cities are following Copenhagen's example,such as London,Paris,New YorkBeijing and San Francisco. They are all taking actions to encourage cyclists,inspired by the City of Cyclists.
