cont'd: The City of Berlin
developed so called traffic regulation plans for quick implementation. Companies specializing in road marking are familiar with this type of template and work from construction sites, using markings and cones. Templates: https://www.berlin.de/sen/uvk/_assets/verkehr/verkehrsplanung/radverkehr/regelplaene_radverkehrsanlagen.pdf

cont'd: The wider planning process is elaborated in this guide ”Making Safe Space for Cycling in 10 Days: A Guide to Temporary bike lanes from Berlin”:
