Cycle streets are specially designed to offer cyclists a safe and priority space. They organise traffic taking into account the needs of cyclists and coexistence with motorised vehicles.

Traffic in cycle streets

In a street specially designed for cyclists, on a one-way road, cyclists have the option of occupying the full width of the public road.

Dans une rue conçue spécialement pour les cyclistes, sur une voie à sens unique, ces derniers ont la possibilité d'occuper la totalité de la largeur de la route publique.

Using the two-way carriageway

When the cycle street has two-way traffic, cyclists must confine themselves to using the right half of the road.

Lorsque la rue cyclable comporte un double sens pour la circulation, les cyclistes doivent se cantonner à l'utilisation de la moitié droite de la voie.

Speed limit and equivalent driver types

Speed is limited to 30 km/h in these streets, and people riding bicycles or speed pedelecs are treated in the same way as cyclists.

La vitesse est restreinte à 30 km/h dans ces rues, et les personnes conduisant des cycles ou des speed pedelecs sont considérées au même titre que les cyclistes.

Understanding the specific rules for cycle streets, particularly regarding traffic, priority and speed limits, is essential to guarantee the safety of all road users and promote the harmonious sharing of the public road.
