Separated Bike Lane Planning and Design Guide
This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides a brief outline of the planning considerations for separated bike lanes and provides a menu of design options covering typical one and two-way scenarios.
Separated bike lanes are one of many “tools in the toolbox” that communities will use to create connected bicycle networks. They can boost bicycle ridership and draw a broader spectrum of users, and they may provide safety and economic benefits to non-users as well.
This presentation 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. Case studies highlight best practices and lessons learned throughout the presentation.
This 3 PDH online interactive presentation is applicable to urban planners, practitioners, engineers, and designers who are interested in implementing this facility type.
This continuing education interactive presentation is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Familiarizing with the concept of separated bike lanes
- Understanding the guide and planning process of installing separated bike lanes
- Learning about the importance of separated bike lanes
- Familiarizing with the design recommendations and its factors
