Product Description

We love bike lanes for their incredible innovation: they help conserve resources and clean up America’s backyard. They give us and our fellow citizens more options for our commute. They keep all of us safer from car traffic than we’d be still sharing the same lanes. We love a win-win situation.

But bike lanes are typically bordered by cheap plastic delineator posts, traffic cones, ugly concrete barriers, or practically nothing–just lines on the road. Only the concrete can actually protect anyone, and it’s liable to chip, crack, spall, and crumble in a few years’ time. Worse, both concrete barriers and armadillo-style plastic bumps can damage any vehicle or bicycle that collides with it (not to mention sending the bike-rider flying).

RubberForm Bike Lane Curbs outperform and outlast any alternative. They won’t chip, warp, or spall. They’re simple to install, remove, or relocate as needed. This is especially helpful for bike lanes that need to change to accommodate new traffic patterns. They require no maintenance, and they’re fully modular: if for some unthinkable reason one section fails, it’s easy to replace. An optional delineator post insert is available in various colors with large reflective stripes – white, yellow or green.

Our Bike Lane Curb is safe and forgiving for bikers and drivers alike. It won’t damage a car or throw a rider who crosses it, while still providing resistance and redirection. It is mountable by emergency vehicles needing to bypass other traffic quickly. It’s the altogether ideal solution for traffic flow and cyclist safety.

Our curbs are made from heavy-duty 100% American recycled composite material. That means it’s designed to endure heavy traffic, searing heat, frigid cold, and extreme weather: wind, rain, ice, and snow.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

What color stripes do you have for your Bus Lane Curb?

We have white and yellow where we use a glass beaded thermoplastic that is burned into position, the same thermoplastic material municipalities use on their roadways. If at any time a piece wears or breaks off, burn a new stripe in place, right onsite.

What are other uses for your Bus Lane Curbing?

Our municipal customers have used it for bike lane curbs as well as a delineator curb with flexible road posts. Some of our commercial customers have used it for delineation in parking lots.

How do you mount on a municipal street?

We have a few mounting kit systems for our Bus Lane curb depending on the environment. Lag bolts, shields and washers with rubber caps in Stainless steel, zinc plated or special 2-part epoxy mounting system. Each Bus Lane curb has 3 mounting positions, connected with our universal dog bone. Our End cap, has 2 mounting positions, connected with our universal dog bone to hold straight and in position.

I have not seen these bus lane curbs in America, where have they been used?

RubberForm developed this bus lane in 2019 for the City of Indelopis INDYGO Redline. We designed, engineered, built a mold and delivered 7,000 curbs in less than 5 months. We made the delivery however the contractor did not follow our specific mounting instructions and the curbs failed. IndyGo as well as the contractor did not allow our engineering team to fully engineer this first release for IndyGo’s Redline. Since 2019 we engineered it right and we now have a dedicated bus lane curb ready for deployment. Proper mounting hardware is needed to hold in position to withstand the punishment of municipal traffic. Strategically placed in road reflectors and flexible road post are needed as well to warn oncoming traffic, Bus Lane curbs are in use.
