Bicycle Holding Rails

Additional Information

Protect pedestrians and cyclists!

Bicycle holding rails are U-shaped rails that are placed along the border of a path, which approaches a road or another pathway. They aim to provide cyclists and pedestrians something to grasp onto or rest against while they wait for a suitable break in the oncoming traffic.

Ensure your holding rails are correctly placed

Holding rails must be positioned on the left side of the path, within easy reach of bicycles, to guarantee that they:

• Allow bikers to come to a complete stop without dismounting or moving their feet off the pedals.
• Encourage cyclists and pedestrians to come to a complete stop when necessary.
• Assist cyclists as they hop off their bicycles, minimising the amount of time spent cycling through a junction. This also enhances their balance, thereby increasing their safety.
• Give good warning of the presence of an intersection.

In addition to the benefits mentioned above, Bicycle Holding Rails have many other great safety features.
