Each colour represents a different type of road or cycling path. We worked with councils and municipalities to bring this feature to life so you can suss out which route is best for your level of riding experience.

Blue: Off road shared path
These are shared paths for bikes and pedestrians that aren’t on roads. They’re usually found alongside rivers, creeks or train lines.

Green: Protected lane
These lanes are on roads. They have a physical barrier (usually made of concrete or plastic) to separate bikes from cars. You’ll also hear them referred to as ‘Copenhagen’ lanes. Very European.

Gold: Buffered bike lane / Shimmy route
Buffered lanes have two single white lines around 1m apart. They also have another painted strip along either white line for an additional .5m buffer to separate you from parked cars and motorways.
Shimmy routes are Council endorsed bike routes using low traffic and low speed roads, as an alternative to using arterial roads with higher traffic volumes and speeds. These segments comprising several streets have designated street signage and white bike symbols on road to assist bike riders in way-finding.

Orange: Painted lane (Green or White)
These lanes have two single white lines around 1m apart. Sometimes, they’ll also have fancy green paint inside the lane to boost visibility.
