It's cycling season, and that means Saskatoon police are out reminding cyclists of the bylaws in place in the bridge city.

It's especially important, according to a recent tweet from the Saskatoon Police Service's account, because a pedestrian claimed they were recently hit by a cyclist on the Broadway bridge.

According to The Bicycle Bylaw, cyclists are required to use due care and attention on sidewalks, including those on bridges and river crossings. They must yield the right of way to pedestrians, and dismount and walk their bike when passing a pedestrian going the same direction on a sidewalk.

Saskatoon Police said it reminds cyclists of this bylaw regularly.

CBC News spoke to cyclists and pedestrians on the bridge. Some people agreed that ringing a bell and slowing down is sufficient, and that most cyclists do this.

"I find most cyclists are good. They'll ring a bell or they'll let you know they're coming. Others don't and they'll zoom up behind you really fast. I'm worried because we don't hear them and I don't want (my dog) to get hit by a bicycle," Becky Hansen told CBC News.

One cyclist said all people need to be alert, whether they're walking or biking.

"It's a matter of both parties being really aware of their surroundings. It can't just be all because of the cyclist," Ruth Russell.

According to The Bicycle Bylaw, people can face fines for breaking the rules.
