Pg 51-52: Non-Motorized User Safety A Manual for Local Rural Road Owners

Many of the roads in the U.S. are non-Interstate, local and rural roads that are maintained and operated by local agencies, such as towns, counties, and Tribal governments. Non-motorized modes of travel, such as biking, walking, and riding horses or horse-drawn carriages can be expected along these roads and may face safety concerns when utilizing the same roadway as motorized travelers. This Non-Motorized User Safety Manual focuses on low-volume local rural roadways and rural villages and describes a process that can be used to address the safety of non-motorized users.

Pg 25-34: Bicycle Road Safety Audit Guidelines and Prompts Lists

Road Safety Audits (RSAs) are a formal safety examination of an existing or future roadway or off-road facility and are conducted by an independent, experienced, multidisciplinary team. The purpose of the Bicycle Road Safety Audit Guidelines and Prompt Lists is to provide transportation agencies and RSA teams with a better understanding of the safety of cyclists in the transportation system when conducting an RSA. These Guidelines present the RSA team with an overview of basic principles of the safety of cyclists and potential issues affecting cyclists.

Pg 69-71: 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.

Pg 44-66: Coding Nonmotorized Station Location Information in the 2016 Traffic Monitoring Guide Format

The purpose of this guide is to make it easier for users to understand how the Traffic Monitoring Guide (TMG) format
describes the information that should be collected when counting multimodal users, as well as how to format that
information correctly. Successfully encoding count data in the TMG format is very important for obtaining the greatest
value from collected counts. As with the motorized formats, the TMG nonmotorized format will be the required format for
