The following pavement markings as illustrated in Figure 2.1(1) shall be used for bicycle lanes and facilities on roads:
(a) Bicycle lane line The bicycle lane line shall be placed between the bicycle lane and lanes of moving traffic and where appropriate, parked vehicles. It shall be a white continuous line.
(b) Continuity line A continuity line shall replace the bicycle lane line –
(i) where motor traffic needs to enter or cross a bicycle lane when making a turn at an intersection or major driveway; and
(ii) to show the continuity of a bicycle lane where it continues through an unsignalized intersection.
(c) Bicycle stop line A white stop line the same width as the stop line provided for other traffic shall be provided in a bicycle lane at the point where bicycles need to stop at traffic signals. The bicycle stop line may be provided a minimum of 2.0 m in advance of the vehicular stop line to give bicycles a small head start at the onset of the green period, provided the line is clear of cross traffic and any marked pedestrian crossing.
(d) Bicycle storage area A safe storage area for bicycles at the head of a traffic queue at a signalized intersection. The bicycle symbol shall be marked in the bicycle storage box.
(e) Hook turn storage box A safe storage area for bicycles to indicate an alternative option for cyclists to turn right at signalized intersections. This facility is particularly suitable where cyclists would need to cross multiple lanes to turn right. A smaller bicycle symbol and pavement arrow shown in Figure 2.1(1) shall be used to indicate to cyclists where to stop and wait for the hook turn.
(f) Bicycle pavement symbol Where used on roads, to indicate a bicycle lane, the bicycle symbol shall be as illustrated in Figure 2.2(1). The bicycle symbol may be installed in full-time and part-time bicycle lanes as follows:
(i) It may be used in lieu of the bicycle lane (R7-1-4) sign at the beginning of the lane in conjunction with the word LANE and at additional locations along the lane as required [see Figure 2.2(2)].AS 1742.9 pdf free download.
