Bicycle Awareness Zone (BAZ)
Typical 4 - Way Intersection signalised
These are painted bicycle markings positioned in the traffic lanes and are generally used to indicate to motorists that bicyclists may be in the road environment. Often these are used on roads where cyclists travel but there is limited road space to provide desiccated facilities. These markings have caused some confusion to all road users about what message they convey. Their use is becoming less common and many local authorities are not renewing these as the marking fades over time. Cycle lane treatments through intersections typically do not have any markings but do have advanced stop line areas where cyclists can position ahead of the traffic queues.

Typical 3 - Way Intersection (T) – unsignalised
Cycle lanes at Tintersections operate the same way as normal vehicular conditions. In some cases a lane is marked across the intersection so motorists from the minor road are aware that cyclists are in the area.
