Like many cities, Copenhagen saw cycling as an ideal way of cutting congestion.

But such has been the success of the policy, the Danish capital is now facing bicycle traffic jam.

Dedicated cycle lanes are filling up as Danes take to two wheels to get to work in huge numbers and now two-wheeled commuters are jostling for space, The Local reported.

Now Copenhagen's cyclists are going to get their own dedicated information screens, advising them how to avoid the worst congestion.

“More accessibility is needed for the increasing number of cyclists that unfortunately are fighting for space on cycle lanes,” the head of the city municipality’s technology and environment department, Morten Kabell, told the Danish broadcaster, DR.
