Cycle Routes
are principally indicated by signs and markings. They may be either
on the carriageway, on footways either shared with or segregated
from pedestrians, or specially designated cycle
paths. | |
Toucan
Signals
These are special traffic
signals, similar to pelican crossings - they have a red man and
green man to show when it is safe to cross - but they also have an
extra signal, a green cycle. This means that cyclists need not
dismount, but can cross over at the same time as pedestrians.
Advanced Cycle Stop
Lines
Within ordinary traffic
signalled junctions, there are two sets of stop lines on each
approach. The one further from the signals is for general traffic,
and the one nearer to the signals is for cyclists. This is to give
space for cyclists wishing to turn right to safely change from the
nearside to the offside.

signage and road markings can be found

Those applicable to cyclists are also included.
