Cycling routes Bicycle guidance system Landkreis Diepholz

Bicycle route network (bicycle guidance system) in the district Diepholz On the initiative of the district Diepholz, signposts for cycling have been installed across the board, so that you can reach the destination almost without a map. In addition, the signs offer a certain guarantee of the quality of the designated routes: with a few exceptions or short cuts, you can rely on the following standards: a. There is little car traffic on the route. b. The route is also easy to navigate with children. c. The route is more or less well fixed. These criteria were queried when planning the signposts. Where the criteria are not met, the municipalities are encouraged to rectify them. Exceptions are only allowed where the use of a main road is inevitable due to the lack of roads or secondary roads. As a rule, the next places within a radius of up to 10 km are shown on the signs. In other words, if you go on a national tour, you still need a map. Especially in the suburbs, the signs are helpful to get through the places on low traffic lanes, but still relatively targeted. Of course, the most benefits are those who are not quite as familiar with reading a street map.
