Bus stops on cycle lane

Should we code additional attributes to capture the risk of a bus stop on a cycling lane?

Example:

There is a difference in high, but the design is comfortable to cycle on.
Advantages are a good view between the cyclist and pedestrians.

Maybe code the following to capture the additional risk:

  • pedestrian flow: medium/high
  • pedestrian crossing: present
  • width restriction: present
    or
  • surface deformation: present

Hi Roxy,

I agree with all your suggestions, except for the width restrictions. I believe the pedestrian flow already captures the effect you’re aiming for. If the number of pedestrians waiting for the bus blocks the facility, we can code the facility access as inadequate. In such cases, cyclists will prefer to ride in the traffic lane, and the model will assume cyclists are in mixed traffic for that section. Additionally, the presence of heavy vehicles and parking are attributes that need to be considered.

Hi Shanna,

All right. Ok we can add parking as well.
And yes off course we won’t forget the heavy vehicle flow along the whole on-road lane.
