Bicycle Program: Sharrows Shared Lane Pavement Marking a.k.a Sharrows Shared lane pavement markings (or “sharrows”) are bicycle symbols that are placed in the roadway lane indicating that motorists should expect to see and share the lane with bicycles. Unlike bicycle lanes, they do not designate a particular part of the roadway for the use of bicyclists.What do sharrows mean for motorists and bicyclists? Motorists: • Expect to see bicyclists on the street • Remember to give bicyclists three feet of space when passing • Follow the rules of the road as if there were no sharrows Bicyclists • Use the sharrow to guide where you ride within the lane • Remember not to ride too close to parked cars • Follow the rules of the road as if there were no sharrows  |
