Warsaw Bicycle Infrastructure

The Most Świętokrzyski is a bridge that spans the Vistula river and connects east and west Warsaw. It sports cars lanes in the center, bike and pedestrian lanes on each side of the bridge.

There are bicycle paths all along the west bank of the Vistula river, but the nearby high traffic road doesn't make for such a serene river ride experience.

Bicycle parking at the Warsaw Technical University didn't seem to easy to access. It even has a "No Bicycles" sign??
The Marszalkowka road in the center of the city was one of the few roads with bicycle facilities. There was a decent two-way bike path between the car lanes and pedestrian walkways. The crossings were well marked.
Bicycle parking at my host's apartment building.
