Pedestrian and Bicyclist Level of Service on Roadway Segments
@article{Jensen2007PedestrianAB, title={Pedestrian and Bicyclist Level of Service on Roadway Segments}, author={Sally Jensen}, journal={Transportation Research Record}, year={2007}, volume={2031}, pages={43 - 51} }
The Danish Road Directorate sponsored a study to develop methods for objectively quantifying pedestrian and bicyclist stated satisfaction with road sections between intersections. The results provide a measure of how well urban and rural roads accommodate pedestrian and bicycle travel. To determine how existing traffic operations, geometric conditions, and other variables affect pedestrians' and bicyclists' satisfaction, 407 randomly selected Danes were shown video clips from 56 roadway…
