A.) Bike Boulevard - A low-traffic street with slow vehicle speeds is designed to prioritize bicycle travel while still allowing local vehicle access.

B.) Advisory Bike Lane - Shared street where cyclists have designated lanes on either side of a two-way street and vehicles may temporarily enter these lanes to pass oncoming traffic, after yielding to cyclists.

C.) Conventional Bike Lane - An exclusive space for bicyclists with pavement markings and signs. Conventional bike lanes are located adjacent to vehicle travel lanes.

D.) Buffered Bike Lane - Like conventional bike lanes but include designated buffer space, separating the bike lane from the vehicle travel lane and/or parking lane

E.) Shared-Use Path or Sidepath - Shared use paths and sidepaths are wide paths dedicated to non-motorists. Shared-use paths (paved trails) are off-street facilities whereas sidepaths are located adjacent to a roadway

F.) Separated Bike Lane - Similar to buffer bike lanes but includes a vertical element to enhance separation between bicyclists and vehicles. Separated bike lanes are distinct from sidewalks and sidepaths
