you mean.. sidewalks? because those are very clearly sidewalks; as they are narrow, made of concrete, and there's absolutely no sign that bikes are allowed or were considered in the design.

I mean just look at the crossings, those are explicitly pedestrian crossings lol.

Not at all, pedestrians roadways.

We bicyclist cannot accept less, I live where yes, sidewalks are rare & available in more quality in the nearest cities, but they are minimum & not wide enough. We must demand better.

Our (I assume) country is more wealthy, than Scandinavian countries, yet they have better separation & whole roadways converted for non-motorized cyclist & can be used to get to more place, where I live such roadway is 15-miles away, with traffic from my home it takes 45-Mins. to get to it & it only goes along side US1 & connects to Metrorail’s first Southern Station & Metrobus station. I think letting other non-motorized ways for pedestrians to get around is okay.
