Mexico City to Build 186 Miles of Bike Paths by 2012

Just this week, Tanya Muller, director of urban reforestation, parks and bike paths for the mayor’s office, announced that the city government has committed to build 186 miles (300 kilometers) of bike paths, or ciclovías, complemented by weekly street closings to vehicle traffic (not unlike what Bogota does), by 2012. It’s an ambitious goal, and the city will have to build 37 miles (50 km) of paths every year for the next five years. The city will also construct a series of bike parking lots, watched by security guards, adjacent to Metro station hubs and in the financial district.”*
