Gallery: 'Hybrid' cycle tracks - on-road but protected

#13703, nearby

Hybrid Cycle lane. Click on the photo to get a clearer indication of the nature of this provision - on-road but with a feeling of off-road provision.

'Hybrid' cycle lane provision in Groningen, Netherlands. These paths are on-road, thus giving cyclists the usual visibility and priority over sideroads, but there is some kind of physical demarcation between the cycle lane and the carriagew ... [more]

Hybrid track in Aarhus. (Exact location on map unknown.)

#11194, nearby

'Hybrid' contraflow cycle track in Aarhus, Denmark. The path is on-road but there is a physical demarcation between the cycle lane and the carriageway.

#9041, nearby

Location may not be exact, but it was somewhere near here. A nice example of 'Hybrid Provision' - near segregation of bikes, pedestrians and cars, though sadly it didn't last for long. At road junctions this cycle lane does have the same ... [more]

Hybrid cycle lane, Manchester

#17217, nearby

Hybrid cycle lane - on-road but some protection from the traffic.

#17218, nearby

Hybrid cycle lane - on-road but some protection from the traffic. Merges back onto the road height, maintaining priority over sideroads (unlike pavement-style provision).

#17219, nearby

Hybrid cycle lane - on-road but some protection from the traffic. Merges back onto the road height, maintaining priority over sideroads (unlike pavement-style provision).

#17220, nearby

Hybrid cycle lane - on-road but some protection from the traffic. Close up of detail of this particular solution. The raised height may not be the best solution for this kind of provision.

#17221, nearby

Interesting but apparently controversial road layout, where a bus zone on the left half of the road takes up most of the space, and all other traffic, including cycles goes to the right. Cyclists have a choice whether to go through the b ... [more]

#17223, nearby

See previous pictures #17222 and #17223. This is the continuation of the cycle lane. Notice how much road space has been given to non-car transport.

#17224, nearby

Detail of slightly raised hybrid cycle lane continued from photo #17223. Seems to use a solid white line, so presumably is formally a MCL, as well as no park signs (not that space for unloading would be useful in this location).

#17225, nearby

Merge of cycle lane at crossing.

#17226, nearby

Merge onto slightly raised hybrid cycle lane

#17227, nearby

Merge from hybrid cycle lane back onto the road (in distance). Not quite clear why it needs to narrow.

#17228, nearby

End of hybrid cycle lane - merges back to road height gracefully.

#17229, nearby

Parking bay provided on other side of hybrid cycle lane. (Potential dooring zone issue but the cycle lane is wide.)

#17230, nearby

Hybrid cycle lane - cycle lane continues across junction, maintaining priority over sideroads.
