I like to draw your attending to a good report which includes samples and
strategies on how to reduce conflict between pedestrians and bicycle riders
on shared paths
Just scroll down on the page, the whole report which is quite long can be
downloaded or alternatively only the relevant sections
http://www.austroads.com.au/abc/index.php?type=main&id=7
Signage is only one of the many strategies available to minimize conflict

Subject: [BTA-WA] Shared path signage
G'day,
Due to a couple of recent complaints from pedestrians (about cyclists)
and cyclists (about pedestrians) on shared paths in South Perth, I'm
interested in signage promoting responsible sharing of the paths. In
particular
1. pedestrians keeping to the left
2. cyclists ringing their bells when approaching pedestrians from behind
If memory serves (and it doesn't) there is/was such a sign on the Mounts
Bay Road shared path just past the brewery. It's been a long while
since I cycled that path. Is the sign still there? Can anyone recall
the wording it uses.
Thanks,
Chris.
