Our solutions
Cycle lanes
We believe that cycling should be safe and accessible for everyone. While it is increasingly being encouraged for its benefits, we recognise the risk posed to cyclists as the most vulnerable users of multi-modal zones. To support safer conditions, we offer a wide variety of solutions that improve protection for cyclists on cycle lanes.
Cycle lane markings
Lane delineation
Line markings can be used for luminant delineation of partially segregated cycle lanes.
Lane demarcation
Colourful lane demarcation increases visibility, helping to raise awareness of dedicated lanes within multi-modal zones.
Arrows and wayfinding
Arrows and wayfinding symbols enable cyclists to more easily navigate around other road users.
Words and guidance
Words and guidance markings like “STOP” and “SLOW” play a vital role in cyclist safety and traffic management.
Signs and symbols
Improve awareness of dedicated cycle lanes with bike symbols that are quick and easy to apply.
Braking zones
In hazardous areas, it is vital to provide clear guidance and extra traction for enhanced grip.
Cycle lane range
We have developed a range of cycle lane systems that deliver excellent skid resistant, vibrant pigments, and rapid installation.
Active travel
As we see an increase of ‘cycle to work’ schemes and ‘congestion charges’, it is increasingly evident the benefit of bike usage on emission and congestion reduction. However, it is critical that cyclist safety is prioritised through the implementation of partially or fully segregated cycle lanes, or relevant signage to raise awareness of bike users.
Cyclist safety
Shared roadway bicycle markings are vital in ensuring the safety of cyclists in multi-modal zones. These act as a warning, alerting drivers of shared roads and encouraging caution in these areas. We aim to make cyclists feel safer by regulating traffic and increasing driver awareness in these zones through highly visible and distinctive road markings.
FAQs
-
Are there regulations on cycle lane markings?
Regulations on cycle lane infrastructure depend on local authorities and trafficking levels. For more information about UK regulations, see governmental guidance at Cycle Infrastructure Design.
-
Are your cycle lanes suitable for busy urban areas?
Yes, our cycle lane markings are ideal for busy urban areas, providing clear visibility and safety for cyclists in high-traffic environments. The application process can be quick, minimising disruption to traffic flow.
-
How do cycle lane markings improve safety?
Properly marked cycle lanes help ensure the safety of cyclists by clearly separating them from motor vehicle traffic. Well-defined cycle lanes also reduce confusion, preventing accidents and conflicts.
-
Are your cycle lane markings anti-skid?
Yes, our cycle lane markings are made with anti-skid materials to provide enhanced traction and reduce the risk of slipping, especially in wet or slippery conditions. This ensures safer cycling for users, even in adverse weather.
