OSM differs between cycle lanes and cycle tracks. A cycle lane lies within the roadway itself (on-road), whereas a cycle track is separate from the road (off-road). Tracks are typically separated from the road by e.g. curbs, parking lots, grass verges, trees, etc. For general information see Bicycle.

The tag sets given below

assume a consistent interpretation of all oneway related tags, unaffixed or not.
are interpreted solely based on the direction of the osm way which is given by the order of its node list.
refer to the left side location of a subject walking forward from first to last way node, for :left suffixed keys
.. and respectively to the right side location for :right suffixed keys

Cycle lanes in bidirectional motor car roads

A lane marked on a portion of a carriageway (UK), roadway or shoulder (USA), designated for cyclist use.

L1a	L1b	L2


`cycleway:left=lane` `cycleway:right=lane` `cycleway:left:oneway=-1` (implied?) `cycleway:right:oneway=1` (implied?)	`cycleway:right=lane` `cycleway:right:oneway=no`	`cycleway:right=lane` `cycleway:right:oneway=1` (implied?) (nb: bikes can use the normal highway on the left side)

Cycle lanes in oneway motor car roads

Way A and if present Way B all have oneway=yes in common for M1..M5 cases.

M1	M2a	M2b	M2c	M2d


`cycleway:left=lane` `cycleway:right=lane` `cycleway:left:oneway=-1` (implied?) `cycleway:right:oneway=1` (implied?)	`cycleway:right=lane` `cycleway:right:oneway=1` (implied?)	`cycleway:left=lane` `cycleway:left:oneway=1` (implied?)	??	`cycleway:left=lane` `cycleway:left:oneway=no`
	M3a	M3b	M4	M5


	`cycleway:left=lane` `cycleway:left:oneway=-1`	`cycleway:right=lane` `cycleway:right:oneway=-1`	Way A : same as M2a Way B : same as M2a	Way A : same as M2a

Cycle tracks

Road (UK) or path (USA, Canada) dedicated to cyclists on separate right of way.
All Way A's have bicycle=use_sidepath in common if that applies within the jurisdiction of the object mapped for T1..T4 cases.

T1	T2	T3	T4


Way B : `highway=cycleway` + `oneway=yes` Way C : `highway=cycleway` + `oneway=yes`	Way B : `highway=cycleway` + `oneway=no`	Way B : `highway=cycleway` + `oneway=no`	Way B : `highway=cycleway` + `oneway=yes`

`cycleway:left=track` `cycleway:right=track` `cycleway:left:oneway=-1` (implied?) `cycleway:right:oneway=1` (implied?)	`cycleway:left=no` (implied?) `cycleway:right=track` `cycleway:right:oneway=no`	`cycleway:left=no` (implied?) `cycleway:right=track` `cycleway:right:oneway=no`	`cycleway:left=no` (implied?) `cycleway:right=track` `cycleway:right:oneway=1` (implied?) (nb: bikes can use the normal highway on the left side)
