This is a live, encore presentation of a webinar that was originally offered on May 2. Attendees of the previously offered presentation, RV-W050218, will not receive CEU for attending the June 6 presentation.
In the past 10 years the United States has experienced a 80% increase in the use of bicycles as a mode of transportation. While in contrast, there has only been a 5% increase in the use of motor vehicles. For this reason more and more cities are developing robust bicycle transportation networks.
For this reason more and more cities are developing main bicycle thoroughfare facilities, such as cycle tracks, as key elements of their transportation network. Cycle tracks can be considered as bicycle arterials or bicycle highways, and this course will outline the planning and design elements needed to develop cycle tracks that support this main thoroughfare purpose. Engineers, Architects, Contractors and other professionals from the A/E industry will learn design guidelines for elements that form part of cycle tracks and that support their implementation, such as ADA accommodations, vehicular traffic level considerations, and the design of geometric elements to accommodate on-street parking, transit facilities and left-turn movements from the cycle track.
