Protected Bike Lanes

Protected bike lanes are designated cycling paths that are physically separated from vehicle traffic, providing a safer environment for cyclists. These lanes are often separated by barriers such as curbs, posts, or parked cars, which help shield cyclists from cars and trucks. They can be found in urban areas where biking is encouraged as a sustainable mode of transportation. The goal of protected bike lanes is to reduce accidents, promote cycling as a viable option for commuting, and enhance overall road safety for both cyclists and drivers.
