Mandatory when cycling the M2 (and M7) to bring your bicycle to a 'HALT' on the LHS of the cycle lane immediately prior to every 'off-ramp', eg Windsor Rd, so as to have unimpeded vision of when entirely safe to cross back onto the M2 (or M7) from the left side of the off ramp, because you could be real dead, real fast without clear vision of approaching vehicles that expect cyclists to know better.  You might also want to adopt the same risk mitigant at each 'on-ramp', although motorists entering the ramp are travelling slower than when egressing the tollway
