Design intersections with bicycle facilities to reduce conflicts between bicyclists and other users (vehicles and vulnerable road users) by heightening visibility, denoting a clear right-of-way, and ensuring that the various users are aware of each other. Continue marked bicycle facilities at intersections (up to crosswalk), and, where needed, place the bike lane pocket between the right turn lane and the rightmost through lane.

Provide approximately 12-foot wide shared use paths in areas where pedestrians and bicyclists need to share the path of travel.

On constrained right-of-way streets with on-street parking where bike lanes are not possible, provide an 11- to 12-foot wide right lane and a shared-lane marking to indicate the position of the cyclist outside the car door zone.

On constrained right-of-way streets without on-street parking where bike lanes are not possible, provide wide curb lanes 14 feet to 15 feet wide. Separate the space for cyclists by striping to discourage motorists from driving there and to reduce traffic speeds is preferred.

Locate buffered bike lanes on wide, busy streets, where physically separating bike lanes with cycle tracks is undesirable due to frequent pedestrian crossings, driveway or loading conflicts, cost, or operational or maintenance reasons. Slow traffic by narrowing the adjoining travel lanes, and provide a painted divider between bike lanes and travel lanes.
