Pg 17-23: Shared-Use Path Level of Service Calculator

Shared-use paths are becoming increasingly busy in many places in the United States. Path designers and operators need guidance on how wide to make new or rebuilt paths and whether to separate the different types of users. The current guidance is not very specific, has not been calibrated to conditions in the United States, and does not accommodate the range of modes found on a typical U.S. path. The purpose of this project was to develop a level of service (LOS) estimation method for shared-use paths that overcomes these limitations.

Pg 39-45: Implementing Bicycle Improvements at the Local Level

This implementation manual is intended for local governments who want to make improvements to existing conditions that affect bicycling. Thirteen of the most typical situations or factors that impact bicycle use are considered. For each situation or factor the manual provides (as appropriate) a problem overview, a solution overview, implementation strategies, objectives, resource requirements, subtasks, a schedule, specifications, and references.
