Argentine Republic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few years ago, the Municipality of the City of Mendoza embarked on an ambitious project to design, develop and construct a dense network of cycle lanes connecting the city\u2019s different neighbourhoods with each other and with the neighbouring boroughs that make up Greater Mendoza, an urban area with more than 1 million inhabitants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Project requirements and objectives.<br><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\"

the north and Godoy Cruz to the south, both constituents of Greater Mendoza.<br>The construction of a cycle lane along this avenue is key to connecting these three cities by making them accessible to bicycle users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

Zebra<strong><sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/strong> 9 separators<\/a>.<br>The project also includes the improvement of footpaths to protect pedestrians and cyclists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

add another cycle lane to those already existing in the city of Mendoza on the streets of Marcos Avellaneda and Mariano Moreno and on avenida Manuel Belgrano.<br>It also brings to light the decided support of the municipal government for the use of bicycles and for improving mobility conditions in the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mendoza Municipality also promotes \u201c<a

be collected from strategically located stands at different points in the City of Mendoza and Godoy Cruz and must then be returned to the station closest to the destination.<br>The aim is to discourage the use of cars in the city, to promote the use of healthy and non-polluting means of mobility such as cycling, and to favour the coexistence of pedestrians, cyclists and motor vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The mayor of the city of Mendoza, Ulpiano Suarez, recently underscored the importance of this new cycle lane in a report: \u201c<a
