Abstract

This report describes the implementation of a draft standard for the design of cycle facilities along a section of the Ilam cycle route in Christchurch. Motorist and cyclist behaviour was observed before and after implementation, revealing a statistically significant increase in the separation of cycles and other vehicles. The results of a simple questionnaire survey of some interested groups (including cyclists) are also described. The report concludes with a discussion of the draft standard, with recommendations for changes to overcome some difficulties encountered during the Ilam cycle route trial. (Author/publisher)
