Pg 102-121: Separated Bike Lane Planning and Design Guide

This Separated Bike Lane Planning and Design Guide outlines planning considerations for separated bike lanes (also sometimes called “cycle tracks” or “protected bike lanes”) and provides a menu of design options covering typical one and two-way scenarios. It highlights different options for providing separation, while also documenting midblock design considerations for driveways, transit stops, accessible parking, and loading zones. It provides detailed intersection design information covering topics such as turning movement operations, signalization, signage, and on-road markings.

2. UNINTERRUPTED BICYCLE FACILITIES: Capacity Analysis of Pedestrian and Bicycle Facilities Recommended Procedures for the "Bicycles" Chapter of the Highway Capacity Manual

The objective of this project was to develop revised operational analysis procedures for transportation facilities with pedestrian and bicyclist users. This document contains both new and revised procedures for analyzing various types of exclusive and mixed–use bicycle facilities. These procedures are recommended to determine the level of service for bicycle facilities on the basis of previous domestic and international bicycle operations research conducted to date. This document only addresses procedures for streets, roads, and intersections with designated bicycle facilities.

Volume 1;3-22 to 3-25: Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), 5th Edition

The Transportation Research Board's (TRB) fifth edition of the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM 2010), incorporates results from more than $5 million of research completed since the publication of the HCM2000. This latest edition significantly updates the methodologies that engineers and planners use to assess the traffic and environmental effects of highway projects.

Chapter 4: Shared Streets and People with Vision Disabilities: Accessible Shared Streets: Notable Practices and Considerations for Accommodating Pedestrians with Vision Disabilities

This document reviews notable practices and considerations for accommodating pedestrians with vision disabilities on shared streets. It focuses on streets where pedestrians, bicyclists, and motor vehicles are intended to mix in the same space. The guide includes a description of shared streets, an overview of vision disabilities and the strategies people with vision disabilities use to navigate in the public right of way. It discusses the specific challenges pedestrians with vision disabilities face when navigating shared streets. It provides an overview of relevant U.S.
