Cycle Junction Facilities

Junctions. Some junctions, particularly those with traffic lights, have special cycle facilities, including small cycle traffic lights at eye-level height, which may allow you to move or cross separately from or ahead of other traffic. Use these facilities where they make your journey safer and easier.

Some junctions have special cycle lights allowing cyclists to move separately from other traffic. For example, at a busy city crossroads, you might see a small cycle light at eye level that turns green before the main traffic light, allowing you to cross the junction safely ahead of cars.
