Other bicycle-related changes include new signs marking dismount zones, a bike path that runs from Dana St. to Spruce St. past the Valley Life Sciences Addition, increased enforcement of mandatory California bicycle registration, more bike racks, warning notices for improper parking, and a bicycle court. The non-criminal bicycle court will allow cyclists to choose two hours of bicycle traffic school in exchange for reduced fines. A new bicycle safety plan created by the UC Police Department and the Office of Parking and Transportation introduces several new bicycle riding rules. These dismount zones are clearly marked by signs and ground stencils. Pedestrians have the right of way.
Cyclists are responsible for avoiding collisions.
Cyclists will be cited by UC Police or Parking and Transportation personnel for riding recklessly or inappropriately. All bicycles on the Berkeley campus must be registered with a California State bicycle license. For information call 642-4936.
