This image was taken right before the tram station, with no context at all. There is so much space wasted to allow the passengers to safely get off the tram without getting hit by cars (see 3rd picture to see how people get of the tram). This is done because they cannot move the buildings.
In the 2nd picture you can see how the tram continues and how the tram lines move together to allow for a |CAR|TRAM|TRAM|CAR| street.
> It also doesn't look like a comfortable place for bikes.
It is not, you drive in the middle of the street there to prevent cars from dangerously overtaking you.
> Cars and trams separated in one direction, but not in the other
Its only for a very short section
> I guess it's okay for pedestrians.
Sometimes you are faster walking up there than cars drive.
