Cool way to integrate solar panels, but building a bike lane in the middle of a highway is just awful.
The noise from cars and especially semi trucks, combined with the exhaust smell is going to suck. There also likely won’t be a lot access roads, since they inevitably need to be tunnels or bridges. And the last thing I am confused about, is why you would even build a bikeway there in the first place? It’s clearly in the countryside, while most biking is done in denser populated areas.
While I'm all for this. I would propose to start with adding these kinds of solar panels over all parking lots. It would provide shade for cars and the massive amount of space is easily accessible.

If you’re gonna put a bike path between 6 lanes of high speed traffic maybe at least offer free life insurance
