Weird Infra Quiz (lemmy.world)

This is a photo from two years ago, i stood there for a good minute wondering how the hell and why this weird cycle path was there. It is in southern France, on the climb to Col d'Ecre, bit north of Nice.

Take a guess, i finally fully understand.

It is on the uphill side. Location

I will wait a little bit more before i post the solution.

Another hint: It has nothing to do with cars.

It is on the uphill side.

Aha, now I see.

Further guesses: Place to pull over and rest; Place for cyclists to make a U turn - perhaps just before a particularly steep or difficult section.

No. Why is there an internet connection? What else is there?

I posted the solution but you can keep playing if you want.
