Back in December, we shared a video that mentioned how Copenhagen is so focused on making bikes the preferred form of transportation that the lights on one of their major roads is timed to allow cyclists 6 km of travel without having to stop. Rotterdam is installing an even higher tech version called Evergreen that will let cyclists know the right speed to travel to avoid the dreaded red. LEDs embedded in the pavement will run the length of the road at the rate of speed you need to be going to either speed up or slow down to make there during the green. Pretty slick!

This system should be installed by this summer.
