What is the difference between a cycle path and a cycle lane?

Cycle path

A cycle path is a separate or detached road for cyclists and moped riders.

When you are going to cross a cycle path you have a duty to give way.

Cycle lane

A cycle lane is a lane on a road that only cyclists and moped riders may use.

You may only cross a cycle lane if you can do so without endangering or unnecessarily obstructing cyclists and moped riders in the lane.
