OK. So, searching for interesting bicycle elevators, I find a connection to a 4 storey car park.
;-)
But obviously useful, "opening up the city" as I called it, and also used by cyclists.
(Wide enough for a cargo bike? Used by cargo bikes?)

Lift to the Grund celebrates 30 years
The lift, connecting Plateau Saint-Esprit and the Grund, cost 60 million Luxembourg francs to build and can hold 15 people. The tunnel leading into the lift measures 55m and the journey from the upper city to the Grund is 45m high.

I mentioned this recently, in a piece called "Vertical transport opens up the city", mainly agitating for the development of a truly cargo bike friendly elevator. For outdoor situations like this, for bicycle parking, for bicycle tunnels, and for inclusive mobility in gen.

I have written an article (in Danish) in a city planning/architecture magazine about vertical transport of bikes, cargo bikes etc. And how The Cargo Bike Friendly Elevator (sorry, lift) could open up the cityscapes, in more ways than one.

Many people with disabilities cycle, and in many cases it is their preferred means of getting about.

It does; it isn't just people are people asked to leave the space for such, it's also that the area marked out is large enough too. Just a nice addition to the cycleway scheme.

We have something similar here in Norwich. On Pottergate (a major cycle route into the city) paving slabs have been inlaid into the cobbles on both sides. Makes a huge difference.
If I was to quibble, they could be a bit wider...
