Bike Lane Line Marking
We've marked hundreds of kilometres of bike lanes, shared paths, and cycling infrastructure across Australia. Green bike boxes, Copenhagen-style separated lanes, and shared path symbols that make cycling safer. Working with councils and developers to build connected cycling networks.

Compliance Standards
Bicycle Facility Pavement Markings
AS 1742.9:2018, the primary standard for bicycle infrastructure marking. Specifies bike lane widths, symbol designs, arrow types, and requirements for separated, buffered, and painted bike lanes.
Shared Path Requirements
AS 1742.9:2018 Section 4, covers marking requirements for shared pedestrian and bicycle paths including centreline separation, symbol placement, and priority markings at conflict points.
Green Pavement Treatment
AS 1742.9:2018 Section 7, specifies requirements for green coloured pavement in bicycle facilities including colour specifications, surface texture for slip resistance, and application locations.
Austroads Cycling Infrastructure Guide
Austroads Guide to Road Design Part 6A, provides detailed design guidance for cycling infrastructure including marking integration with physical separation and intersection treatments.
Slip Resistance Classification
AS 4586:2013, relevant where green surface treatments are applied. Cycling surfaces must maintain adequate slip resistance especially when wet to prevent cyclist falls.
Intersection Pavement Markings
AS 1742.2:2009, governs general pavement marking requirements that apply alongside bicycle-specific markings, ensuring integration with standard road marking at intersections.

Frequently Asked Questions
Green surface treatment is coloured pavement that clearly identifies bicycle space, particularly in conflict zones where bikes interact with vehicles. AS 1742.9 specifies its use at bike boxes, intersection approaches, driveways crossing bike lanes, and any location where drivers might encroach into cycling space.
AS 1742.9 specifies minimum 1.2m for exclusive bike lanes and recommends 1.5m where possible. Buffered lanes add a 0.5m to 1.0m hatched separation zone. Shared paths for bikes and pedestrians need minimum 2.5m width and typically 3.0m for higher volumes.
A bike box is the green waiting area at the front of an intersection that allows cyclists to position ahead of traffic. A two-stage turn box is a separate waiting area allowing cyclists to make turns in two stages, avoiding merging across traffic lanes.
Standard bike lane lines and symbols in thermoplastic last 4 to 6 years. Green surface treatment typically lasts 3 to 5 years depending on traffic volumes. High-traffic shared paths may need more frequent maintenance. We can advise on appropriate maintenance cycles.
Yes, we've marked numerous pop-up cycling facilities for councils trialling new infrastructure. We use removable materials where required or standard marking for longer trials. These projects often convert to permanent infrastructure after successful trials.
We're happy to work with council cycling committees and advocacy groups during the design process. Good marking design benefits from input from people who actually cycle the routes. Upload your proposed plans and we'll provide technical input on marking specifications.
