Which article are you evaluating?
Bike lane

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because there is a rising popularity of increasing bike lanes and other urbanist policies amongst people. I feel that this matters because with increased curiosity into these subjects that curious newcomers to the urbanist ideology would like to read more about these subjects. My initial impressions of the article were that it was rather short and neglected to include information from parts of the world not in the United States or Europe.

(Compose a detailed evaluation of the article here, considering each of the key aspects listed above. Consider the guiding questions, and check out the examples of what a useful Wikipedia article evaluation looks like.)

The lead section of the article is well done and meets each of the points listed. The content in the article is well done and concise and remains well focused on the topic, it does seem to under represent Asian countries since they are not included in the articles' sections. The article does a great job of remaining neutral. The citations are well done and use the best possible sources they can, after clicking several of the links, they do work. Organization and writing wise the article is clear and concise. The images are well done and provide adequate information and are properly sourced while also being visually appealing. There are unfortunately no comments on the talk page of the article. The article is C-rated by both the WikiProject Civil Engineering and Wikiproject Cycling Groups. Unfortunately there is not discussion on the article under the talk page. The article's overall status is a C-rating and it is strong by having a clear and concise description for the subject at hand but it can be improved chiefly by expanding into how Asian countries approach bike lanes. I would personally say it's a well-developed article.
