Zwolle’s bicycle roundabout
In the summer of 2013, the municipality of Zwolle constructed a unique bicycle roundabout at the Philosofenallee-Vondelkade bicycle crossing. Prior to its construction, cyclists had to give way to (motorised) traffic on the Wipstrikkerallee, a busy access road. As a result, cyclists were inconvenienced by long waits and impeded in their travel. Giving cyclists priority and introducing traffic lights did not fully address or solve this issue.
