Designing for Bicyclist Safety Webinar Series: Designing for Bicyclist Safety (Part I)
Apr 11, 2017
This three-part webinar series was delivered to provide agencies with the tools needed to understand the principles of bicyclist safety and respond to safety problems with the appropriate countermeasures and designs. Based on a recently-developed training course from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), this webinar series conveyed the fundamentals of properly designing for bicyclist safety.
The first part of the webinar series provided context for considering bicyclists in the transportation system. Panelists introduced common safety problems for bicyclists, explored trends in bicyclist safety, and identified a range of strategies for diagnosing safety problems.
This webinar series was delivered by the UNC Highway Safety Research Center with support from the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Office of Safety through a contract to provide training and technical assistance to the FHWA-designated Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Focus States and Cities.
