[bikeqld] Green BAZ ??? Where ...?

[Michael Yeates]

Some will be aware of a BQ - UQ survey on cycling and health ... it 
is worth supporting if the info is made widely available.

However I was intrigued (to say the least) when I came across the 
following very confusing description in amongst some question options ...
Using designated on-road bike lanes, such as the bicycle awareness 
lanes painted green
On the road (no bicycle lanes)
Other
Surely the BFZ > BAZ hasn't had yet another change ... the BAZ was 
NEVER a "lane" and NEVER a "designated lane" ... indeed EXACTLY the 
opposite ...!

So what exactly is "painted green" ... has the BIKE symbol changed 
from yellow to green ?

Where is there an example of this facility?

Or, given it seems reasonable to expect a cycling advocacy 
organisation to be precise and accurate, is this another case of 
increasing community acceptance (or tolerance) of organisations 
failing to ensure quality ... or put another way,"due diligence" or 
QA ie "quality assurance" ?

It is a simple question of being correct and therefore reliably 
informative ... or not and therefore furthering confusion and/or 
misunderstanding.
