The Bicycle Routes to Rail study identifies allexisting and planned bikeways in proximity toexisting or under-construction light rail andcommuter rail stations in the Dallas / Fort Worthregion based on 2016 data. The maps reflectoff-street paths (trails) and streets designated bylocal adopted master plans for dedicatedbikeways (e.g. bike lanes, cycle tracks) locatedon the street. In accordance with the TexasTransportation Code, bicyclists have a right tothe road. As such, the map does not reflectother roadways around the station that may havesigned bike routes or by state law may be usedby bicyclists.
