 As a result, some communities have designated sidepaths (locally called "safety paths") as bike routes which do not meet the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) guidelines for bicycling facilities and have been found to be less safe than on-road bike facilities.As a result, there are no designated Bicycle Friendly Communities within Oakland County.Only the city of Ferndale has a built comprehensive bicycle network of bike lanes and signed shared roadways.
