What is the key for the bicycle route markings on Google Maps?

3.03.2023 By: Zander Calloway

Google Maps has recently added a feature that helps cyclists identify the best bike routes to take. The feature uses green dotted lines to mark the most bike-friendly roads and paths, and blue dashed lines to indicate less bike-friendly routes. The green lines are typically the most direct route, and the blue lines are usually roads and paths with more traffic. Additionally, solid green lines indicate routes that have dedicated bike lanes, while a green line with an arrow indicates a route with a one-way bike lane. This feature helps cyclists identify the safest and most direct routes to take, making it easier to plan a bike ride.
