Improved Bike Lane Safety
Ride-a-Way – High Performance Colored Bike Priority Lanes
Ride-a-Way has worldwide acceptance and is the optimal choice for colored bike lanes on both asphalt and concrete surfaces
Safe
-
Skid and Slip Resistant
Ride-a-Way has been extensively tested for it’s skid resistance properties and consistently exceeds State Department of Transportation requirements
Durable
-
Will Not Peel, Shrink or Delaminate
Ride-a-Way bonds permanently to asphalt and concrete and is a flexible material so will not contribute to or cause surface cracking -
UV Stable Colors
Ride-a-Way incorporates color pigments that do not fade when exposed to UV rays. Colors remain stable for years even in desert climates -
Oil & Gas Resistant
Ride-a-Way is not affected by the likes of fuel spills and de-icing chemicals and protects underlying surfaces from contamination -
Wear Resistant
Ride-a-Way is a high performance material that is resistance to wear in demanding conditions
In extreme conditions such as high traffic intersections where bike lane surfaces may be exposed to high vehicle traffic, it may be used in conjunction with the DuraTherm inset thermoplastic system. DuraTherm resists wear in the most demanding situations
Cost Effective
-
Long Lasting
Ride-a-Way will not peel or delaminate and is color stable. Used in conjunction with DuraTherm Sharrows, there will be virtually no maintenance liabilities. -
Simple Installation
Ride-a-Way is simple to install, efficiently minimizing traffic and community disruption.
Environmentally Responsible
-
Water Based – Nontoxic
Ride-a-Way is a specialized water based acrylic polymer material with epoxy cross links. It is environmentally benign. -
Extends service life of asphalt and concrete – Long term protection of surfaces from erosion and UV damage
By protecting the underlying pavement Ride-a-Way actually extends its life expectancy. Longer pavement life means less consumption of new materials and less disposal of old. -
