A man is riding a bicycle in the freshly-polished bike path corridor as he carries a medium-sized advertising board at the back of his cart shadowed by the cloudy weather, around Bole (in front of Sky-light hotel). The Addis Abeba city administration is on a mammoth task of developing the second faith corridor development project under the spirit of unveiling new roads, cycling lanes, and walkways. Plans include 134.4Km of asphalt paving to open up key routes, along with 140.7Km dedicated to cycling lanes. Nearly half of the 566.5hct is earmarked for green spaces, including golf courses, sports fields, forests, and an extensive network of parks and recreational facilities.
