Bike lanes? |
Do Class II Bike Lanes run across both sides of the street or just on one side? Does anyone have any information regarding Class II Bike Lanes? Class II Bike Lane A Class II Bike Lane shares the right-of-way with a roadway or walkway. It is indicated by a bikeway pictograph on the pavement and a continuous stripe on the pavement or separated by a continuous or intermittent curb or other low barrier. Because some separation is provided for bicycle travel, a Class II Bike Lane provides some level of safety for the bicyclist and pedestrian. While crossings by pedestrians or automobiles are discouraged, they are not as controllable as they are on a Class I Bike Path because the Class II Bike Lane is adjacent to the walkway or roadway. Because Class II Bike Lanes are tied to the adjacent roadway or walkway, route selection is important to maintain appropriate bikeway gradients and curvature. Class II Bike Lanes generally require less space than Class I Bike Paths because they follow the alignment of and share the right-of-way with a roadway or walkway. ... To answer your question specifically - the Class II lane is usually on the curb side of the street, riding in the same direction as traffic. It is entirely possible to have another Class II (or Class III) lane on the opposite side of the street for travel in the other direction. Also not the relative difference in widths for the class of lanes; Class I (dedicated bike path) has a minimum width of 2 m = 78 inches), Class II has a minimum width of 2 m = 78 inches, and Class III has a minimum width of 1.2 m = 48 inches.
