17 Methodology 16

18 Video Data Primarily intersections 3 locations per facility (not Austin) 2 cameras per location 2 days of video (7am to 7pm) per location 168 hours analyzed 16,393 bicyclists and 19,724 turning vehicles observed Example Video Screenshots (2 views) from San Francisco at Oak and Broderick

19 Resident Surveys Mailed to residents living near new protected bike lane(s) 8-12 pages (~40 questions) 23% response rate overall Bicyclist Bicyclists intercepted on facility and directed to online survey 33% response rate overall 18

46 Conclusions Evidence of increased bicycle volumes Within one year, mostly due to shifting routes Strong improved perception of safety for people riding on the facilities May be improving experience for women more than men Surveys of residents indicate that separation may encourage more cycling 45

47 Conclusions Designs choices affect safety and comfort, some worked better than others Clear demarcation of the merge entry point for vehicles and the use of the through bicycle lane performed best Use of signals effective (highest perception of safety) Green markings good for communicating paths Designs with buffers with highest physical separation preferred, though flexpost scored high too 46

48 Conclusions Generally positive perceptions for other road users More negative perceptions are specific to certain streets Support for the protected lane concept Road users appear to recognize larger benefits 47
