The cycle path along the Grand Canal doesn't serve solely cyclists. If you cycle along, you've probably seen pedestrians walking on it all the time. Joggers love it in particular, as they see themselves faster than other footwalkers. And, as you can see from the photo above, teenagers on skateboard also love to use this fabulous facility. Who knows, perhaps one day he will also become a cyclist.
In any case, it demonstrates how cycling infrastructures serve the whole community, not only cyclists, ergo it's a wise investment. You can read more about segregated cycle facilities here.
I took the picture last week, on 12 February 2013, by the canal.
