1 Cycling Facilities in Europe Signs of Acceptance by Low Cost Prepared by Difu, presented by Jörg Thiemann-Linden Pardubice, 22nd February
2 1. Cycling facilities types, outside settled area, maintenance 2. Bicycle Parking in city center, in dense housing 3. Traffic calming the safety issue, speed limits, mixing the modes 4. Outlook Measuring cycling, sources Content 2
3 Introduction: User s Perspective Other people cycling Quick and simple from A to B Feeling safe a condition for experiencing the bike in daily life (after having had good experiences from leisure use) Cycling is fun! Visible signs of social and political acceptance of cycling Quality Infrastructure = keeping the potential 3
4 Cycling Facilities 1. Balanced public space 2. Basic Types (sorted from mixing to separation) - cycle street - advisory safety lane - cycle lane - cycle path 3. New elements 4. Maintenance 5. Outside settled area Hannover: Former mandatory cycle path; new cycle lane 4
5 New generation of guidelines From FGSV e.v. German Transport and Road Research Association Bases for ERA: 2010: RASt 06 Street design guidelines: to design the street from the sides, not from the middle 5
6 Ascain possible street cross section 6 6
7 Advisory Cycle Cycle safety lane path lane 7
8 Criteria for pre-selection (to be confirmed in detail construction plan) Motorized vehicle frequency per day Car speed (V85) Choice of the adequate type of cycling facility I entire mixed II mixed with assistance III potential separation IV separation 8
9 9 Cycle lanes Visibility! Quick and easy travel, cheaper than to build cycle paths Adequate space at intersections Self-explanatory design Enforcement on parking! 9
10 Outside settled area Separation because of driven speed (but long time effort to create a network priorities?) Bicycle lanes outside? (not in Germany, but CH, NL, BE, FR) Speed limit at km/h in minor roads without cycling facilities? Focus on entries to villages 10
11 Road separator - for crossing and turning Crossing in two phases Substitute for traffic light Necessary at the end of a two way cyclepath CMB Expert Seminar, Pardubice, 22nd February
12 Visible sign of acceptance e.g. bike box, indirect turning (coloured lane in general) CMB Expert Seminar, Pardubice, 22nd February
13 In future capacity oriented planning? 13
14 Dutch new tradition of cycle streets and cycle highways Reasons for national Cycle Highway programm: - increase commuter distances cycling - Improve health effect - reduce work load of public transport during peak hour - avoid congestion on motorways 14 14
15 Bridges, worth kilometers of cycle paths 15 15
16 Tunnels, worth kilometers of cycle paths 16 16
17 Leisure route for inliners and cyclists (Flämingskate, signed cycle street) 17 17
18 Greenways on former rail tracks 18
19 Copenhagen Green Wave, cycle highways 19
20 No passing cyclist in small roundabout (but plenty of mistakes in detailled design!) Gdansk bicycle roundabout 20
21 Requirements on Bicycle Parking Stability: for locking the bicycle, no front wheel clip Right location close to shops Dry under roof (if parking for longer time) Theft-proof: bright at dark in public area (guarded parking) 21
22 Neighbourhood Bicycle Garages Utrecht, Rotterdam (NL), Antwerp (BE) Network of community garages (boxes, new shelters, former shops Organisation by municipal garage company of civil society bureau. Utrecht / Antwerpen: funding from municipal car garages assets (due to public interest to memove any barriers from cycle use) 22 22
23 23 Copenhagen: capital of bakery bikes Each fourth familiy with children in central Copenhagen posseses one 1 box for 4 tricycles on 1 car parking lot
24 Pedelec parking at work location solar filling station CMB Expert Seminar, Pardubice, 22nd February
25 Parking capacity problems (Münster, DE); Red carpet for pedestrians (Groningen, NL) 25
26 City center bicycle parking mostly for free; Apeldoorn, Den Haag (NL), Münster (DE) 26
27 New station Alphen a.d.rijn, NL (2010) 30,000 inhabitants, guarded parking + free parking in bicycle apple 27
28 Houten, NL (2011); 50,000 inhabitants 3200 bicycles capacity in station hall 28 28
29 Safety a matter of cycling density Exposure of the single cyclist Source: ECF 29
30 Thoughtfullness the rule, not exception Speed limit of 30 km/h. Closer to cycling speed The reasons (from info on new traffic law in France): CMB Expert Seminar, Pardubice, 22nd February
31 Speed limit of 30 km/h! Thoughtfullness the rule, not exception Reasons: CMB Expert Seminar, Pardubice, 22nd February
32 New street law in France fomal status of street maximum speed balanced traffic / local function French Highway code since 2008 Zone de rencontre Switzerland Belgium France CMB Expert Seminar, Pardubice, 22nd February
33 Hierarchy of streets: Self-explaining roads 30 km/h in most streets (EP 2011: the rule, not exception) 50/70 km/h in some streets (with cycling facilities) some Ped. Zone and 20 km/h streets Key for good cycling condition: >> balanced spaces for the modes >> low speed of motorized modes CMB Expert Seminar, Pardubice, 22nd February
34 Shared Spaces squares Duisburg / Ulm / Lüneburg (DE), Haren (NL) All driving at cyclist speed CMB Expert Seminar, Pardubice, 22nd February
35 Mixing the modes in peaceful co-existance CMB Expert Seminar, Pardubice, 22nd February
36 Respect! Pedestrians Needs Relaxed joint use : Common green paths with pedestrians: sufficient space Avoiding (mountain) bike routes on high level hiking paths The cycling speed issue Bicycle parkings and handicapped pedestrians 36
37 Measuring Cycling Simple methods: Counting cyclists at central spots (bridges) year by year, or steadily for public awareness Users satisfaction survey by interviews Point out problem spots on open map (wiki mapping?) Hands-up in school classes before, after cycling to school action 37
38 Copenhagen bicycle balance - users satisfaction 38 38
39 Netherlands bicycle balance by test rides Utrecht compared to Groningen 39 39
