Public transport often treats bikes as a luxury—or worse a competitor—but without them leaves revenue on the table.

's-Hertogenbosch offers cyclists an app via which they can trigger an advance green light when they approach a junction. The traffic lights start to learn and predict the behaviour of cyclists, so it can ensure an efficient flow through the city. WATCH: youtu.be/3rB4KP_yx24
