The department recently signed "Bicycle Route" designations
for Decatur Boulevard, Carey Avenue and Pecos Road to comply with the
RTC system map. These are "Share the Road" facilities
in which the bicyclist shall use the 14 foot wide, shared use lane or
break-down lane, for directional travel.
Please remember that cyclists are encouraged to wear a bike helmet when
riding, and to travel with motor vehicle traffic flow. For more
