What is the source?

Best UX design I have seen for ages 😊 🚲 ☔️ ❤️ 🇳🇱
In 2015, @rotterdam installed the first rain sensors at a downtown intersection.
Now, when it starts to shower, the traffic lights prioritize cyclists so they don’t wait as long. Drivers must wait a bit longer, because they are inside and can remain dry.
