Sioux Falls maintains striped bike lanes on key corridors and the Big Sioux Greenway shared-use path; cyclists must use lanes where provided and obey traffic signals under Ch. 124 and SDCL 32-20A.
Bike lanes run along corridors including West 26th Street, Sycamore Avenue, and parts of Minnesota Avenue. The 30-mile Big Sioux Greenway path connects Falls Park, Sertoma Park, and southern neighborhoods. Cyclists 18 and over may ride in lanes or on adult sidewalks outside the downtown business district. Helmets are not mandated. Motorists must give three feet when passing under SDCL 32-26-26.1. Sioux Area Metro buses carry bikes on front racks. Hospitals Avera and Sanford host bike valet during major events.
Failure to obey traffic signals or riding the wrong way carries fines around 50 to 100 dollars; motorists violating the three-foot passing rule face state traffic citations.
