Madrid plans to introduce an extra lane for motorcycles. However, the planned lane is very short and basically they want to avoid filtering motorcycles.
The planned lane for motorcycles is about 70m long and 1.30m wide. Mayor Jose Luis Martinez-Almeida wants to test it on a section of the Avenida de Asturias. The road between Montoya and Carmen Montoya usually has a very high traffic volume and on the new lane, which is planned to the right of the normal lanes, motorcyclists should be able to drive unhindered up to a traffic light.
The aim is to prevent motorcyclists from weaving through traffic.
The pilot project will be tested for a few months. It is hoped to improve traffic flow and reduce the number of accidents.
