1 Traffic Safety Barriers to Walking and Bicycling Analysis of CA Add-On Responses to the 2009 NHTS NHTS Users Conference June 2011 Robert Schneider, Swati Pande, & John Bigham, University of California Berkeley Safe Transportation Research & Education Center (SafeTREC)
2 Community Goals vs. Perceived Pedestrian & Bicycle Safety Barriers Goal: Increase walking & bicycling If there was less traffic I would probably walk even more. --Male, Age 30, San Francisco Fillmore Street Bicycling itself I would do it if I wasn t right up next to cars. --Female, Age 52, South SF Goal: Improve pedestrian & bicycle safety There are definitely certain intersections that I m very cautious about because I have seen drivers do crazy things --Female, Age 52, South SF Sometimes I feel scared for [bicyclists] sometimes it is very hard to see them and sometimes they have no protection. --Male, Age 30-39, Berkeley

46 Conclusions NHTS travel behavior & socioeconomic data improves understanding of traffic safety barriers and suggests comprehensive set of interventions Major roadways, population density slower automobile speeds, mode shift strategies Utility travel, more walk trips, fewer bike trips Complete Streets for all modes Disabilities, female, minority, low-income, more kids accessibility improvements, Safe Routes to School, targeted education & encouragement
47 Considerations & Future Research Greater understanding of barriers to people who already walk & bike, but not people who don t Not all major roads are alike Could analyze respondent tours Could ask more detailed questions about traffic safety barriers instead of factor analysis Need more research on perceived vs. actual pedestrian & bicycle safety risk
