Pg. 12 : Traffic Analysis and Intersection Considerations to Inform Bikeway Selection

This resource supplements the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) Bikeway Selection Guide and is intended to inform
trade-off decisions associated with bikeway selection at intersections. It discusses common performance metrics, spatial
needs of bikeways at intersections, safety and equity focused design principles, and operational traffic analysis trade-offs and
assumptions.

Pg 32-97: Guidebook for Developing Pedestrian and Bicycle Performance Measures

This guidebook is intended to help communities develop performance measures that can fully integrate pedestrian and bicycle planning in ongoing performance management activities. It highlights a broad range of ways that walking and bicycling investments, activity, and impacts can be measured and documents how these measures relate to goals identified in a community's planning process. It discusses how the measures can be tracked and what data are required, while also identifying examples of communities that are currently using the respective measures in their planning process.
