Along the entire track, which is approximately 2,000 m long, there are three different areas:
- The first one, next to the existing roadside will be used for the location of signals and defenses. This strip will be 0.5 m wide.
- The second zone will be used by pedestrians. With a width of 2 m, it will be separated from the bicycle lane by a longitudinal line.
- The third zone will be occupied by the bicycle lane. It will have a width of 2.5m and will be visually differentiated from the pedestrian zone by the surface finish, which will be executed with a green “Slurry" type pavement. In addition, the separation between the bicycle lane and the pedestrian zone will be delimited by a continuous 10cm wide line.
