5 What is a Two-Stage Left Turn Queue Box?

6 How to Use a Turn Queue Box Right Turn on Red restrictions at select intersections

7

8 Transverse Markings Evaluation Provides a barrier between cyclists and parked vehicles Encroaching cyclists and length of encroachment was evaluated

9 Right Turn on Red Compliance Evaluation of driver compliance with right turn on red restrictions Evaluated driver performance on approaches with turn queue boxes present Each study intersection had different type of restriction Spring & Elijah Pierce No RTOR When Bike Present Spring & Lester No RTOR Except Curb Lane Spring & Grant No RTOR Images from Google Street View

10 Data Collection 6 Collection Periods 24 hours of video per intersection Collection Schedule 1: Before Installation 2: Immediately After Installation 3: One Month After Installation 4: Three Months After Installation 5: Nine Months After Installation 6: Twelve Months After Installation Installation Delays Schedule Changes

11 Data Collection

12 Evaluation Conflict Rates Compliance Rates Right Turn on Red Compliance Transverse Markings Evaluation Noted Observations Many Iterations of Analysis

13 Number of Cyclists Counted in 24 Hours on Turn Queue Box Approaches Collection Total Cyclists Counted on all Intersection Approaches with a Turn Queue Box Highest Volume Lowest Volume Median of all Counts Average of all Counts Collection 1 1, Collection 2 1, Collection 3 1, Collection 4 2, Collection 5 2, Collection 6 1,

18 Results & Trends

19 Right Turn on Red Compliance Spring & Elijah Pierce No RTOR When Bike Present Spring & Lester No RTOR Except Curb Lane Spring & Grant No RTOR

20 Anecdotal Observations for Turn Queue Box Evaluation Better Turn Box usage takes place Downtown rather than north OSU Campus area Joggers use bike lanes Most conflict comes from cyclists using sidewalk & quickly changing lanes in roadway Very minimal conflicts with actual use of turn queue boxes Cyclists take fastest path from A to B Seattle, WA

21 Transverse Markings Evaluation Transverse Markings Cyclist Count Data

22 Transverse Markings Evaluation Transverse Markings Encroachers & Lengths of Encroachment

23 General Results Turn Queue Box Evaluation Overall Compliance 73.8% Overall Conflict 2.1% Turn Box Approach Compliance 85.4% Turn Box Approach Conflict 1.2% 4.3% of total cyclists made turn queue box movement Of the 4.3% above, 21.6% of those cyclists utilized the turn queue box RTOR Compliance Overall Right Turn on Red Compliance 97.0% Transverse Marking Evaluation 13.6% of all cyclists encroached Encroachment occurred for average of 40.8% of observable length

24 Conclusions Low Turn Queue Box Utilization Initial dip in utilization but then trend is up Low total vehicle volumes at intersections Comfort level Additional time Sidewalks/Crosswalks Utilization likely to increase as Columbus traffic volumes grow N. 4 th Street & E. Long Street Columbus, OH

25 Conclusions Positive Turn Box Impacts Reduction in Conflicts on turn box approaches Trending towards even less conflicts Increase in compliance on turn box approaches No noticeable issues with driver behavior Compliance trending upward Sidewalk use trending down Effects of bike lanes + turn queue boxes

26 Conclusions Transverse Markings Benefit Number of cyclists encroaching in hatch trending down Right turn on Red compliance Good and trending upward Limited data

27 Recommendations Turn Queue Box education for drivers and cyclists Further evaluation as Columbus traffic volumes continue to grow

28 What could we have done differently? Evaluation of weather/time of year on results Evaluation of bike lane installation prior to turn queue box installation
