Cycling infrastructure
Road crossings
Cycle tracks or bicycle paths can sometimes cross main roads. In these difficult zones where cyclists meet motorists, safety is the absolute priority. Barriers, marking and lighting protect the most vulnerable users.
How do we light them? At 50km/h, motorists have a narrow field of vision and need 28m to stop (13.5m at 30km/h). For these difficult zones, we use the same specific lighting distributions as with pedestrian crossings to provide a high level of vertical luminance. We combine them with cool white LEDs to ensure the sharpest contrast that helps motorists to see cyclists crossing the road.
