Product Overview

Rosehill Highways' Narrow Cycle Lane Defenders provide robust, surface-mounted separation between vehicles and cyclists, enhancing safety through either continuous or light segregation.

Designed in line with Cycling England and Sustrans guidelines, our units support the creation of 2.0m-wide cycle lanes wherever possible, with a minimum width of 1.5m.

Manufactured in the UK from 100% recycled tyre rubber, these long rubber units are quick to install, highly durable, and ideal for permanent or trial schemes in urban and suburban environments.
