• 20kph is the maximum permitted speed limit for cyclists on shared pathways
• Keep to the left to enable others to pass safely
• Be alert and cautious when crossing roads - look both ways
• All cyclists mustwear a helmet, on both roads and pathways - it's the law
• Please stay on pathways - don't cycle on gravel paths in Narawang Wetlands or on timber boardwalks
• Help keep frogs, turtles and other wildlife off the roads by shutting the gates behind you
• Please respect your Park by leaving the plants and wildlife undisturbed for everyone to enjoy
