Seattle uses sharrows, the bicycle with chevrons and also has a share the
road signage program. I don't recall seeing both the sharrow and sign.
Initially the signage was to be used at narrow points in the road where
there were no alternatives routes for bicycles.
Note: from a person who rarely rides a bike and when I do, it's on a trail
designated for bikes and pedestrians
