If you want to take a bicycle ride in Sfântu Gheorghe you must be a true professional, otherwise you risk falling off.
Several bicycle lanes festively inaugurated last week were made in vain. Many have trees right in the middle of them, others are cut short by pillars or even stairs.
Three trees stand tall on a new bicycle lane festively inaugurated in Sfantu Gheorghe a week ago.
To avoid hugging the trees, cyclists must ride on the highway. The bicycle lane stretches across the whole sidewalk, so pedestrians are no longer safe walking on it. But neither are bikers, because their lane goes uphill.
A few streets away, another sidewalk was turned into a bicycle lane. But, in order to follow this lane up or downhill, one must jump over several stairs.
Another sidewalk, another problem! The bicycle lane ends abruptly, down street.
The footage with this new bicycle lane went viral on the Internet too. Romanians from all over the country are mocking the latest investment made by the Sfantu Gheorghe City Hall.
