I don't understand why komoot's highlight title is "Painter's Cycle Path Through the Forest."

On July 22, 2025, the cycle superhighway bridge over the busy Panzerstrasse in Böblingen was officially opened amid great public interest. The bridge is part of Baden-Württemberg's first cycle superhighway (RS 1), which connects Stuttgart and Böblingen and has already recorded around 1.5 million bicycle rides. The supporting structure consists of a delicate steel box girder with cantilevered consoles that support the roadway slab. Slender steel supports on maintenance-free stainless steel point tilting bearings transfer the loads into the subsoil. The bridge is 200 meters long, five meters wide, features LED lighting in the handrail, and has a minimal gradient.

Very nicely done. The road is busy, so sometimes you had to wait a long time. This tempted some people to risk a small gap to cross the street. Now you can cross it really easy peasy. Great! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
