Sharrow

A sharrow is not a bike lane but a road marking indicating the shared use of a travel lane by bicyclists and motor vehicles. Cyclists are considered equal to motor traffic in these lanes, meaning that drivers of motor vehicles and cyclists share the lane (a "shared lane" or "sharrow" comes from "shared lane arrow"). On such roads, we can expect increased bicycle traffic, so it's important to proceed with caution and look out for each other. We are all on the same journey, so let's ensure we stay safe.
