road safty

The Public Works and Transport Ministry (MOPT) is reminding drivers that cyclists have a right to the road.

The new bike path is replacing a previous route inaugurated in 2015 that is mostly unused today.

The ministry is calling on the population — particularly urban cyclists — to take an online survey on the proposed bicycle parking types and locations.

Costa Rica is participating in Car Free Day on Sept. 22. Get your bicycle tuned up, plan to walk or take the bus, and challenge someone else to join.

Drivers in Costa Rica lack respect for cyclists and runners on the road, and it's costing some athletes their careers and even their lives.
