You can ride in bus lanes. Be aware of other vehicles using the lane, especially when coming up to intersections as all vehicles can travel in a bus lane if they’re turning left. When riding in a bus lane, you must follow the main traffic lights. You can’t go on the green ‘B’ bus signal and must wait for the main traffic light green signal.

Tips on how to ride in traffic, plan the safest route for your ability and use bike lanes, shared paths and quieter roads with lower speeds.

Wear bright or light-coloured clothing so other road users can see you. You should also wear reflective clothing at night, along with a high-visibility slap band. Wear closed-toed shoes that fully cover your toes and heels, such as sneakers or running shoes.

Don’t wear any caps or hats under your helmet. Doing so compromises the fit and safety of the helmet, as the hat or cap can push the helmet higher on your head, which can expose your skull in a fall or crash.
