A typical installation could be 2.0m of Riley Kerb with a 1m gap to allow cyclists to enter and exit the cycle lane

Separation and road safety for cyclists is becoming of increasing concern for local councils. The challenge to engineers is to ‘ fit ’ these measures into existing road networks. Traffic Calming Australia offers a range of solutions, that can be installed on either a temporary or permanent bases quickly and in a cost-effective manner.
Multiple options are available with Riley Kerb.
Riley Kerb to narrow lane bollard separator’s to a full Copenhagen style bike lanes to provide a safer environment for cyclists.

As they are easily installed and removed, this provides the traffic engineer the opportunity to trial, monitor, evaluate and if necessary, adjust an installation without the huge capital cost of a traditional installation.
