Article Overview

A sharrow is a pavement marking installed on streets popular with bicyclists but too narrow for conventional bike lanes.  The sharrow is installed 11 feet from the curb, or approximately 4 feet from parked cars.  It is intended to indicate where bicyclists should ride to avoid travelling within the door zone of parked cars.
