Sidepath
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A sidepath, or cycletrack, is a particular type of segregated cycling facility: it is a path for bicyclists located next to (alongside) a roadway. A sidepath is similar to a sidewalk, but designated for anyone traveling by bicycle.
Note that sidewalk bicyclists, especially those who travel opposite the direction of traffic on the roadway, are statistically significantly more likely to be involved in a collision than roadway bicyclists.[1]
