There aren’t any borders in the Schengen area which is different to the EU.
Damn, this is really recently updated. Romania and Bulgaria just got into Schengen last month, and they’re already in the right spot on the chart.
Sure there are. There are border controls between Germany and Denmark and between Denmark and Sweden. They were supposed to be temporary, but here we are nine years later and they’re still up.
Same between Austria and Slovenia and Slovenia and Croatia. Well, at least on one side. Going from Austria to Croatia, nobody will stop you, but going from Croatia to Austria, they stop you on each border. Austria took COVID as an excuse to reinstate it, and Slovenia I guess chose to be very worried about illegal immigrants.
I’d love to visit Netherlands, seems like bicycle heaven…
And we all know this is the border with Belgium
Dutch people famously hate on the crappy Belgian road that separate us from our vacation destinations in France.
Akshually, those bike gutters are a bit outdated here. Many shared roads are converted to ‘fietsstraat’ (bike roads where cars are permitted but must yield to bikes) or markings are removed altogether and replaced with speed limiting obstacles
They might be outdated in cities, but on the country side a lot of the streets still look this way. Probably even more at border crossings. The only bordercrossing I haven’t see like this is the main road Kleve-Nijmegen.
Yeah, I’m fairly sure if you turned this specific instance into a fietsstraat, it would just be a regular car street. Although given that this is a 60 km/h road, I do think that the next scheduled maintenance work is not unlikely to turn it into a proper separated bike lane?
The street is still like that, but in 2022 or 2023 they added some poles on the street to slow down the cars. The speed limit may be lowered to 50 kmh on the Dutch side, but I’m not sure. It’s been a while since I’ve been there. The speed limit on the Belgian side is 70 kmh. The Belgian side has a separated bicycle lane but it starts behind the photographer of the original picture.
According to all the articles i saw, its only for water and air, not land, meaning there are still borders
its only for water and air, not land
So rain and birds can move freely, but tortoises and foxes can not?
