This study focused on the safety impacts of providing cycle facilities, in combination with a number of other features, such as width of approach kerbside lane, at traffic signals. A review of facilities provided and information available was undertaken across each of the Austroads jurisdictions. It was necessary to locate sites where cycle facilities have been installed for at least five years (to allow before and after assessment) and where adequate cycle and motor-vehicle exposure (flow) data was available. A survey questionnaire was also sent to each jurisdiction to determine key cycle facility types and data available for each. A workshop was held with representatives from a number of jurisdictions to understand which cycle facilities are preferred, to discuss cycle safety concerns and better understand what data was available in each city.
