16 Evolution of the NACTO Guide
17 How do we get this?
18 Pre-2011 Bikeway Design Guidance
19 Accommodate all users
20 Four Types of Transportation Cyclists Based on surveys conducted in Portland, OR
21 The bicycle has become an important element for consideration in the highway design process. Fortunately, the existing street and highway system provides most of the mileage needed for bicycle travel. 900 pages of guidance Less than 1 page on bicycles
22 What we have. What we want. How do we get there?
23 List of Core Bikeway Design Treatments BIKE LANES Conventional Left-side Contra-Flow Buffered CYCLE TRACKS One-way Two-way Raised SIGNING & MARKING Wayfinding Signage and Markings System Colored Bike Facilities Shared Lane Markings SIGNALS Bicycle Signal Heads Signal Acuation and Detection Active Warning Beacon for Bike Route at Unsignalized Intersection Hybrid Signal for Bike Route Crossing of Major Street INTERSECTIONS Bike Boxes Intersection Crossing Markings Two-stage Turn Queue Boxes Median Refuge Island Through Bike Lanes Combined Bike Lane/Turn Lane Cycle Track Intersection Approach
24 FHWA Status of Existing Bikeway Treatments
25 From Standards to Guidelines Federal State Local MUTCD Green Book AASHTO MUTCD Supplement State Road Design Manual City Street Design Manual MUTCD State/Local Guidance Color Stencil Buffer Signage Signals Cycle Track Width Buffer Width Orientation Parking Context/ Application
26 Do people understand what this means? Are cyclists complying? Are drivers confused? FHWA Request to Experiment
27 The MUTCD Consistency is a good thing
28 MUTCD NACTO Shall Required Should Recommended May Optional
29 How we built our case for each treatment 1. It s been done List of US Cities currently using a given treatment 2. It works Contextual Rendering, Images, International Standards, Research 3. We can do it too Is it worth replicating?
30 Post-2011 Bikeway Design Guidance
31 Outreach and Dissemination
32 Professionals Federal State Local City Leaders Policymakers Advocates State Local Bloggers Direct Outreach Webinars Conferences Endorsement Campaign Direct Outreach
33 Using and adopting the NACTO Guide Level of Government Process Federal State Local - Changes to MUTCD (Green Color, Bike Box, Bike Signal) - Secretary LaHood endorsement - Federal Policy statement - Complete Streets Policy - Adoption through Reference - Legislative Action - Endorsement - Resolution - Ordinance - Administrative Action/Policy - Implementation - Complete streets
34 Further research is needed to determine how design guidelines achieve designation [as a prevailing standard]. If the term simply requires that many cities adopt a standard, it creates a dilemma where no city wants to expose itself to liability by being the first to do so. An agreement between many cities to adopt new design standards or a state policy encouraging the use of new guidelines could overcome the problem. Moving beyond Prevailing Street Design Standards: Assessing Legal and Liability Barriers to More Efficient Street Design and Function -Center for Resource Efficient Communities, UC-Berkeley, 2011
35 Summer 2011 Endorsement Campaign Over 40 Official City Endorsements Outreach to 50 States, including every State DOT Innovative Bikeway Projects all around the country
36 Official endorsements Alexandria, VA Ann Arbor, MI Arlington, VA Atlanta, GA Austin, TX Baltimore, MD Boston, MA Boulder, CO Cambridge, MA Charlotte, NC Charleston, SC Cheyenne, WY Chicago, IL Fargo, ND Fort Collins, CO Fort Wayne, IN Hoboken, NJ Indianapolis, IN Los Angeles, CA Manhattan, KS Memphis, TN Miami, FL Minneapolis, MN New York, NY Norfolk, VA Oakland, CA Orlando, FL Omaha, NE Philadelphia, PA Pittsburgh, PA Phoenix, AZ Portland, OR Rochester, NY Salt Lake City, UT San Francisco, CA Seattle, WA Sioux Falls, SD St. Petersburg, FL Tacoma, WA Trenton, NJ Washington, DC
37 Secretary LaHood calls the NACTO Guide an extraordinary piece of work that is long overdue!

45 Multi-Modal Design Guidance in the U.S. Jennifer L. Toole, ASLA, AICP
46 1. Federal Highway Administration (MUTCD) blesses a sign, signal or pavement marking. 2. AASHTO also covers geometric design. 3. AASHTO expands guidance in MUTCD. 4. State DOT s follow AASHTO and the MUTCD. 5. Other professional associations ITE, NACTO also publish guides, state of the practice manuals. 6. New information, ideas, and innovations are vetted, evolve, and are tested over time. 7. Back to number one.
47 Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, FHWA Most dynamic areas of change are bike and ped guidance Updates and interim approvals Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines, U.S. Access Board Public Right-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines Shared Use Path Guidelines
48 AASHTO Guide for the Development of Bicycle Facilities Due for publication in 2012 NACTO Urban Bikeway Design Manual Published in 2010, update due? Highway Capacity Manual, ITE Bicycle and Pedestrian LOS Measures Highway Safety Manual Countermeasures for bicycle and pedestrian crashes
49 Variety of signs and markings to increase motorist compliance with pedestrian laws. Accessible pedestrian signals, countdown signals, signals at uncontrolled locations. Bikeway signing and marking: Shared lane markings Use of green pavement (interim approval)
50 Do not use on paved shoulders or bike lanes Should not use if the speed limit exceeds 35 mph Place marking immediately after an intersection and at intervals not greater than 250 feet
51 Markings required, signs optional Both symbols still allowed
52 How to design contra-flow bike lanes How to design left-side bike lanes Use of green pavement in bike lanes Buffers between bike lanes and travel lanes and/or parking lanes Bike lanes adjacent to reverse-angled parking Allowance for narrower bike lanes in urban low speed environments

54 Seattle, WA
55 New York City Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, DC Portland, OR
56 Boston, MA
57 Washington, DC
58 Min 7 parking lanes allowed Provides options to address safety in locations with high parking turnover: Widen parking lane Widen bike lane Buffer Extend parking Ts Arlington, VA
59 Retains some previous Dotted bike lane lines through intersections allowed to guide through undefined areas 4 wide bike lane allowed through intersection (5 preferred)
60 Narrowing travel lanes to 10 wide is an acceptable way to gain width for bike lanes. Travel lanes can be removed if excess capacity exists
61 Deemphasizes bike routes, they are not a facility type Guidance on all sign types Signs are not a substitute for good geometric design D-Series are below
62
63 On long bridges where traffic speeds are higher, consideration should be given to providing a bikeway separated from traffic, preferably on both sides.
64 Addresses considerations if bicycles are allowed to operate on the freeway Addresses freeway interchange design Design junctions as right-angle intersections if possible
65 New stand-alone chapter Reflects several significant studies: Characteristics of Emerging Trail and Roadway Users Shared Use Path Level of Service Architectural Barriers Act Accessibility Guidelines for Outdoor Developed Areas Safety Effects of Marked Versus Unmarked Crosswalks at Uncontrolled Locations Fills missing gaps in the old Guide
66 Significantly expanded guidance Explains the complexities of path-roadway intersections Three crossing types: Midblock Sidepath Grade-separated
