via Phnom Penh Post, 09 December 2019: The APSARA Authority announced at last week’s ICC_Angkor meeting a dedicated bike trail through the Angkor Park, starting at Angkor Wat and ending at Takeo temple to alleviate traffic on the motorways.
The International Coordinating Committee for the Safeguarding and Development of the Historic Site of Angkor (ICC-Angkor) welcomed the Apsara National Authority’s initiative to construct a bicycle lane at the Angkor Archaeological Park.
The purpose of constructing the bicycle lane was to protect the safety of travellers, the environment, and the cultural value of the countryside heritage.
“The experts had applauded the initiative of the Apsara National Authority in preparing the bicycle lane and considering the safety of the travelling public, students, and tourists, and protecting the environment,” the Apsara National Authority said on its Facebook page.
Authority spokesman Long Kosal told The Post on Sunday that ICC-Angkor acknowledged that the lane would benefit the public, and provide safety for students on their daily commute.
Also, the bicycle lane would enable tourists to visit the temples and communities around the historical park.
