Waze and Garmin are launching real-time cycling alerts to help create a safer environment on the road.

Now, when cyclists turn on Garmin LiveTrack™ on their Garmin Edge® bike computer or Garmin smartwatch, they can choose to show up as a real-time, moving icon on Waze for extra peace of mind. Drivers will also see a notification when a cyclist is nearby, giving them a helpful reminder to slow down, stay aware, and share the road thoughtfully.

This feature is completely opt-in and built with privacy in mind. Drivers only see a temporary alert that a cyclist is nearby — never information about a specific cyclist or route. Plus, alerts automatically turn off the moment a cyclist ends their ride on their Garmin device.

Cycling alerts powered by Garmin are rolling out now globally on Android and iOS.
