Bikeway Traffic Control Guidelines for Canada outlines the
appropriate traffic control for the installation of signs and pavement markings
on bikeways and contains diagrams of typical installations. Many of the
guidelines may be applicable to both on-road and off-road bikeways.
This 118-page document was produced with the intention of
providing guidance in the application of bicycle-related traffic control
devices on bikeways that are within the public right of way. Signs and pavement
markings must be designed carefully and installed properly to maximize their
effectiveness. It is important that agencies responsible for the application of
these guidelines use sound engineering judgement and principles when
implementing bicycle-related traffic control devices.
These guidelines are expected to evolve over time, depending
on prudent engineering judgement, experimentation and testing which is
anticipated to take place in an effort to continue addressing the needs of
cyclists in Canada.
