Abstract

This publication consists of 16 articles that summarize computer vision techniques to collect helmet-wearing data on cyclists; an evaluation of interactions between buses and bicycles at stops; a visual survey tool for determining factors that make a street attractive for bicycling; red light running behavior of electric bicycles at signalized intersections in China; the dispersion effect in left-turning bicycle traffic and its influence on capacity of left-turning vehicles at signalized intersections; and mode choice and spending behavior in downtown Davis, California. This TRR also explores a cost–benefit analysis of added cycling facilities; day-of-year scaling factors and design considerations for nonmotorized traffic monitoring programs; applying diffusion of innovation theory to use of a public bikeshare system in Vancouver, Canada; modeling the impacts of bicycle facilities on work and recreational bike trips in Los Angeles County, California; and measuring traffic reduction from bicycle commuting. Additionally, this TRR examines a comparative analysis of annual average daily bicyclist traffic estimation methods; attitudes toward mode choice and multimodal commuting to work by public transport and bicycle; electric bikes in North America; a disaggregate-level assessment of changes to Michigan’s motorcycle helmet use law and its effects on motorcyclist injury outcomes; and characterizing usage patterns for powered two-wheelers from automatic vehicle identification data in Melbourne, Australia.
