All across the globe, motorcycles contribute greatly to the mobility of the masses. While this may not so much be the case in the U.S., this is certainly true across Asia and Europe, where motorcycles account for a sizable chunk of motor vehicles on the roads. Unfortunately, however, infrastructure in most cities still favors cars and four-wheeled vehicles.
In Barcelona, Spain, this could all change, as the city is planning on revamping its streets to better accommodate vehicles of the two-wheeled variety. In 2022 alone, 16 people died as a result from two-wheeler accidents. Now, instead of banning motorcycles from the street—like what's happening in Paris—Barcelona is taking a more inclusive approach by redeveloping parts of the roadways to be safer for motorcyclists.
