Bicycle Safety
TDOT is committed to the development of a transportation infrastructure that improves conditions for bicycling through the following actions: Provisions for bicycles will be integrated into new construction and reconstruction of roadway projects rough design features appropriate for the context and function of the transportation facility.
The design and construction of new facilities should anticipate likely future demand for bicycling facilities and not preclude the provision of future improvements.
By addressing the need of bicyclists to cross corridors as well as travel along them and designing of intersections and interchanges to accommodate bicyclists in a manner that is accessible and convenient.
The design of facilities for bicyclists will follow design guidelines and standards as developed by TDOT. The measurement of usable shoulder width does not include the width of a gutter pan.
Where shoulders with rumble strips are installed, a minimum clear path of 4 feet of smooth shoulder is to be provided.
In cases where a minimum shoulder width of 4 feet cannot be obtained, such as in restrictive urban areas, an increased curb lane width will better accommodate bicycles and motor vehicles within the shared roadway. The recommended width for shared use in a wide curb lane is 14 feet.
