Lesson plan
Numbered-node cycle network
region and points the way to nodes 31 and 62. The numbered-node cycle network ( ; [formal] and ["bike-by-numbers", informal] ) is a wayfinding system for cyclists in Europe. It works by assigning each junction or intersection (here called a node) on a bicycle-friendly cycling route a number: these numbers are then signposted at junctions along such routes so that the cyclist always knows which way to go to get to the next junction / node on their itinerary. , the numbered-node cycle network is expanding rapidly with extensive coverage across the Netherlands and Flanders in Belgium, good coverage across Wallonia in Belgium, as well as parts of France, Germany, Denmark and Croatia. Node numbers are not necessarily unique but those that do have same number will be situated so far apart that they cannot be confused. To design a route, the cyclist simply creates a list of node numbers, which will be the sequence of junctions or intersections that they will be passing through. The list of node numbers can be generated with a website. The cyclist can then see these nodes on a downloaded map or write them or circle them himself on a paper map. Cycling networks are, by nature, more distributed than car routes, with more junctions; they do not gather all cyclists onto arterial bike routes.…
