Cycling Superhighway

Every day, 35 percent of Copenhagen's residents travel to work, school, or shops by bicycle. They cycle a combined distance of over a million kilometers per day, which equals 25 trips around the Earth. Copenhagen expects the volume of cyclists to reach over 50 percent of the population soon. Cycling is a healthy and environmentally friendly type of transportation. Plus, it is cheaper and usually faster than taking public transportation. Wherever you go, more and more people are choosing cycling.
When a large number of people started cycling in Copenhagen, it caused problems at first. They solved it by building a cycling superhighway designed after highways for motor vehicles. This made cycling much easier and safer. Perhaps all large cities will follow Copenhagen's example and build cycling superhighways for their bike-loving citizens one day.

哥本哈根每天有百分之三十五的居民藉由騎自行車去上班、上學或買東西。這些人每天所騎的距離加起來超過一百萬公里，等同環繞地球二十五圈。哥本哈根當局預料，他們單車騎士的數量很快就會超越其人口的百分之五十。騎自行車是一項既健康又環保的交通方式。此外，它也比搭乘大眾運輸工具來得更便宜，而且通常也比較快。無論您到哪裡，都有越來越多人選擇騎單車。
起初，哥本哈根因開始有許多人騎乘自行車而造成了一些問題。他們的解決之道就是以機動車輛行駛的高速公路為設計藍圖，建造了一條單車專用的超級高速公路。這讓騎自行車變得更方便也更安全。或許某天，所有大城市都會跟隨哥本哈根的範例，為喜愛騎車的市民建造一條條的單車超級高速公路。
