Cyclists must obey Ontario’s Highway Traffic Act and always use appropriate caution.
The routes are intended for experienced cyclists. Experienced cyclists are those who road cycle daily/regularly and have high cycling skill level on roads and/or those who have completed the CAN-BIKE level 2 course, or an equivalent training course. These maps and Cycling Routes are not intended for use by children or novice cyclists.
When planning a route, each cyclist should evaluate the Cycling Route based on:
(1) cyclist’s level of experience and ability;
(2) cyclist’s comfort level when cycling in close proximity to motorized vehicles;
(3) the weather conditions and time of day;
(4) the posted speed limit; and
(5) road obstacles, whether temporary or permanent, such as construction, potholes, changes in grade, or road closures.
The designation of an area on the map as a Cycling Route, bicycle lane, route or pathway does not guarantee any minimum width, facility surface quality, or traffic condition.
