It is raised, but not so much that anyone would notice. I barely noticed it on my bike. Maybe it is half an inch. Certainly not more than an inch.
It's raised 6 inches....up to the level of the curb. You can see it along the picture you showed, along the left edge, where the level of the roadway goes from the normal level at the curb, up to flush with the curb, curbs are about 6 inches high, so there is a ~6 inch rise. It's gradual, because the design speed is ~30km/h. You'll notice it a little on a bike, but if you're in a car going much faster, you'll want to slow down to no around 30.
