The bike path stops every time a middle island with a pedestrian crossing is present. This leads to the fact that the car drivers don't realize that there is not enough room and during the overtaking suddently realize that there is a middle island in the way. The reaction, sadly, is mostly to suddently turn right... where cyclists are. If cyclists go in the middle of the road just before the crossing to indicate that there is not enough room, they get honked. This is just dangerous and not viable.
I would rather share the sidewalk between pedestrian and bike, as the bike path is just too dangerous going up.
