Signal Phasing Strategies for Intersections with an Exclusive Bicycle Path
… agencies installing experimental exclusive bicycle traffic signals in conjunction with vehicular traffic signals. These signals, mostly found at intersections with protected two-way bicycle paths, may cause operational inefficiencies if unsatisfactory phasing strategies are used. The source …

Revealing challenges and opportunities in cycling safety through crowdsourcing
An increased modal share of bicycle traffic is a key mechanism to reduce emissions and solve traffic-related problems. However, a lack of comfort and (perceived) safety keeps people from using their bicycles more frequently. To improve comfort and safety in bicycle traffic, city planners need (a), …

Towards a Comprehensive Bicycle Motion Behavior Model and Naturalistic Cycling Dataset
Most of the existing bicycle flow traffic research is limited to characterizing the longitudinal motion of bicyclists based on the assumption that there is no significant differences between the dynamics of a single-file bicycle traffic and the longitudinal motion behavior of cars. This research …

Utvärdering av cykelfälts effekter på cyklisters säkerhet och cykelns konkurrenskraft mot bil
This work presents an evaluation of bicycle lane effects on cyclist safety and the ability of bicycles to compete with car traffic. Thirteen Swedish urban streets were studied before and after bicycle lanes were introduced. Data was collected using video recordings, speed studies, road side …

Bicycle detection through the use of inductance loop detectors at vehicular actuated traffic signals
In the United States the bicycle continues to increase in importance as a transport mode for a growing number of people. However, due to significant differences in physical size, mass and operational speed when compared with motorized vehicles, this increase in bicycle traffic has led to a number …

Development of a Bicycle Level of Service Methodology for Two-Way Stop-Controlled (TWSC) Intersections
… research on multimodal performance measures for traffic on streets and highways. The Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) published by the Transportation Research Board (TRB) provides Level of Service (LOS) methodologies which enable engineers and planners to evaluate the overall performance of roadways …

Bicycle and Pedestrian Traffic Monitoring and AADT Estimation in a Small Rural College Town
Non-motorized (i.e., bicycle and pedestrian) traffic patterns are an understudied but important part of transportation systems. A key need for transportation planners is traffic monitoring programs similar to motorized traffic. Count campaigns can help estimate mode choice, measure infrastructure …
