<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 0 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>This data consists of existing bikeways, grouped by "On-Street" to include the following types:</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 0 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>BIKE LANE – STANDARD: In most cases new lanes will fall into this category. This is the standard bike lane with striping, generally along the edge, of either side of the road.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 0 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>BIKE LANE- TWO WAY: This Bikeway Type will be a single lane, with bikeway travel in both directions.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 0 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>BIKE ROUTE: This type must have a green sign with a white stencil; they are no longer commonly installed. The primary indicator of a bike route is the sign. They typically do not have any markings or striping along the road, although one may rarely find "Sharrows" accompanying a bike route sign. </SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 0 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>BUS BIKE LANE: These lanes will have paintings or markings noting that the lane is shared by both bicycles and buses. </SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 0 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>BIKE BLVD: This type can have bike dots, markings, no markings, or just signage identifying this type. Most often there are signs denoting BIKE BLVD.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 0 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>SHARED USE – PAVED: These types will have some sort of paving, but will be available for pedestrians, cyclists, scooters, etc. These paths will be detached from a roadway and are generally too narrow for automobile traffic. They can often be found along canals, or near roads where there is no dedicated striping for bicyclists. </SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 0 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>SHARED USE – UNPAVED: The description above for SHARED USE - PAVED also applies to this type, except it will not be an improved, paved surface. There are many hiking trails where foot traffic may be shared with cyclists.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 0 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>BRIDGE: This type will consist of a raised surface, or bridge usually intended to connect other group types, although it can sometimes be a stand-alone or terminal point.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 0 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>TUNNEL: Tunnels, like bridges, usually connect to other groups. </SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 0 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>There are also Potential Connectors and Removed Routes. These types are meant to be transitional, and do not represent the actual bikeway network.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-size:16ptmargin:0 0 0 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>This data is used in EZMap and open data AKA existing bikeways in EZMap. Grouped Bikeways are updated weekly by the GIS Asset team. </SPAN></SPAN></P><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN /></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
