Using Cycle Tracks Properly
This rule is a legal requirement
Cycle Tracks. These are routes for cyclists that are physically protected or located away from motor traffic, other than where they cross side roads (see Rule 206). Cycle tracks may run alongside footpaths or pavements and be separated by a feature such as a change of material, a verge, a kerb or a white line. You MUST keep to the side intended for cyclists as the pedestrian side remains a pavement or footpath.
💡Example
Cycle tracks are designated paths for cyclists, separate from motor traffic and pedestrians. For example, when riding along a cycle track next to a footpath, ensure you stay on the cyclist's side, usually marked by a white line, to avoid conflicts with pedestrians.
