Only two bicycles per SkyTrain car are allowed. Bicycles must not be carried on station escalators. Use elevators or stairways to access platforms. Bicycles are not per-mitted at any time at Metrotown Station. Cycling access to Sky-Train is commonly restricted during special events.

Designated Bicycle Lanes: are signed and paved portions of the street for the exclusive use of cyclists.
Shared Bike Lanes: are signed and marked streets where bicycles and vehicles share the travel lane.
Neighbourhood Bikeways: are unmarked routes where bicy-cles and vehicles share the road-way and tend to be traffic calmed.
Multi-use Trails: are paved or unpaved pathways physically separated from vehicles and shared by cyclists & pedestrians.
Rules of the Road
Obey Traffic Signs & Signals As a vehicle, bicycles must obey the rules of the road. Cyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as other traffic.
Use Lights at Night See and be seen! Always use a strong white headlight and a red taillight at night or when visibility is poor. Use bike reflectors and reflective clothing.
Ride in Single File Ride in single file when riding in a group except when overtaking or passing.
Wear a Helmet Wearing a helmet is the law in BC. An approved bicy-cle helmet can greatly reduce the risk of death or permanent injury in the event of an accident.
Cycling in Shared Traffic
Use Appropriate Lane Avoid being in the right-turn-only lane if you plan to proceed straight through. Move into the straight through lane early. In narrow lanes or slow traffic it may be safer to take the whole lane.
Ride in a Straight Line Avoid weaving between parked cars. Ride in a straight line at least 1m from the curb to avoid any hazards. Watch for cars entering from driveways.
Be Careful at Intersections The majority of accidents occur at intersections. Pro-ceed with care and watch for turning vehicles.
Use Appropriate Hand Signals Signal all turns and stops ahead of time. Shoulder check and proceed when it is safe to do so.
Options for Turning Left 1. Make the left turn as a vehicle. 2. Ride to the far crosswalk and walk across as a pe-
destrian.
Make Eye Contact Confirm that you are seen. Establish eye contact with motorists to ensure that they know you are on the roadway.
Be Aware of Car Doors Be wary of parked cars. Motorists can unexpectedly open car doors. Always ride one car door width away.
Scan the Road Behind Shoulder check regularly and use a mirror to monitor traffic. Although bicycles have equal rights to the road, be prepared to manoeuvre for safety.
Crossbike (Elephants Feet): Indicates crossings where cyclists are permitted to ride. Crossbikes may or may not be exclusive to cyclists; often they are shared with pedestrians.
Shared pathway: Indicates an off-street pathway shared by pedestrians and cyclists. Cyclists must yield to pedestrians.
Bicycle with arrow: Indicates that the direc-tion of a bicycle route is changing.
Sharrow (shared roadway symbol): Indicates where cyclists should generally position themselves while sharing the roadway with other vehicles.
Dedicated bicycle lane: Buses, motorcycles and other motor vehicles are not permitted to travel or stop in this lane unless making a right turn onto a cross street. Transit buses may stop at designated stops for passengers.
Cycling on Off-Street Paths & Trails
Right-of-Way Pedestrians always have the right-of-way. Cyclists and in-line skaters must yield to pedestrians.
Signal to Others Use your voice, bell or horn to inform others that you are passing then pass safely on the left.
Be Alert Be sure the pathway ahead is clear of obstructions and watch for slippery sections. Ring bell for others where visibility is restricted such as on hills and turns.
Respect Nature Keep to the pathways and established trails to protect habitat. Do not disturb or feed the wildlife. Do not collect plant or animal material.
Be Visible Ensure you are visible at night by wearing light-toned clothing and reflective tape material.
Keep to the Right All pathway users must keep to the right half of the pathway except when passing. Move off the pathway to the right when stopping.
