Well, judging by the old StreetView photos, they seem to be exactly where the original rail lines used to be prior to the road realignment…

I loathe those artist’s ideas like the embedded rail lines. They’re fake, made to order and added to the build. They’re not real work-hardened rails so they rust, and confusingly they can be slick like tram tracks in the rain. Clearly designed by someone who doesn’t turn that corner in the winter. Infrastructure should be function over form.

As for different bikes – have you seen the guy commuting on the tall bike?
