Regional Planning section at The Ohio State University her research interests focus on travel demand analysis and tourist modeling she conducts research and teachers and various aspects of Transportation she works on several topics which provide opportunities for extended research her research in these areas try to answer questions such as
What are the commute choice and residential location trade-offs and how can we utilize this information to reduce sprawl and manage transportation demand what can we say about the effects of individual location and built environment characteristics on pedestrian vehicle crashes and severity of injury how do our time use decisions
Travel and physical activity patterns affect one another how can we achieve sustainable transportation patterns on campuses and how can we incentivize behavior dr. Carr received her PhD from the University of Maryland Department civil and environmental engineering in 2009 with the focus and transportation she got her Bachelor of Science and
Masters of Science degrees both from civil engineering department at the middle east technical university in turkey in New Year’s 2002 and 2004 respectably I’ll now like they handed over to coastal color hello and thank you cody afford a nice introduction good afternoon everyone I will start the
Presentation right now Oh as Cody said my name is Ducie and today we will talk about campus planning for non-motorized modes and the focus of the 12 will be on bicycle time we will first talk about what are the current problems on college campuses will talk and give some
Examples we will talk about what does a campus population once what do the students faculty and staff they want to see on their campuses what some campuses are doing to provide them and what should a campus bicycle and dream master plan should include well as you all know there are serious concerns
In many areas about the high levels of traffic congestion mobile source emissions and the sustainability of our growth patterns and travel because of the serious consequences of traffic congestion and mobile source emissions most multiples and areas are now moving towards alternative transportation options in addition to congestion the constraints on the availability of
Financial resources and concerns about environmental impacts added to the need for searching alternative options in the last decades planners and engineers and decision makers have been struggling to provide access and mobility without destroying the community features the capital base improvement strategies such as additional adding additional roads additional lanes additional parking lots
Are no longer valid at several locations because of the lack of financial resources environmental impacts and sometimes simply because of lack of space these have led to a shift towards demand management as you all may know transportation demand management or TDM they refer to various strategies that change travel behavior how when and
Where people travel transportation demand management is increasingly being used to address a variety of transportation problems the most widely implemented transportation demand management strategies are as you may already know the right ear programs congestion pricing traffic calming schemes increased prices for parking expanded transit access and bicycle and pedestrian facility improvements so as
You can see you can frame bicycling and walking as two components of a more global transportation demand management strategies today we will cook focus on campuses it is generally to that the motorisation turns on college campuses are the same as those experienced by society at large in the last decade just like everywhere
In the nation campus plenaries have struggled to provide access and mobility without destroying campus qualities as distinct communities there’s increasing interest among colleges and universities in ways to combat local congestion reduce contributions to greenhouse gases and provide leader but just like other urban areas as I talked before financial environmental and spatial constraints
Are steering the decision makers on campuses to alternative approaches other than building new roads and parking lots and bicycling and walking are two important two important components of this framework college campuses are very distinct communities they are places where people of different backgrounds incomes lifestyles and attitudes they
Come together live so you work and create college campuses they build societies they are usually it could be seen as self-contained neighborhoods where classrooms offices apartments student centers art galleries shopping places they’re all in clocks close proximity they have their own streets squares open spaces where people can get
Together Merle campuses are generally more car-dependent than urban ones although most campuses do not totally exclude the cars walking and biking is the expected way to get around on campuses in many communities especially in smaller cities the college campuses are very often the area’s largest employers there are also the major
Traffic generators which require extensive parking areas the campus settings they differ from many other urban areas they have a unique population with younger and more active individuals they have generally irregular schedules which is different than the nine-to-five schedule and there is a continuous movement of people throughout the day another unique thing
About campuses is the opportunity about reshaping the Society’s transportation patterns the campuses provide a unique opportunity because the transportation habits and the environmental awareness that students learn during their college years can actually disseminate through the whole nation and reshape the Society’s transportation patterns so what’s going on on the campuses right
Now similar to the nation’s friends car travel is high and it dominates the road design financial policies and more choice of the campus population there are growing more enrollments which means growing parking demand and although there is increasing awareness still there are limited sources or alternative transportation modes while the results
Of these are increased congestion reduced air quality reduced quality of life reduce physical activity and costly parking in addition to this the lack of bicycle infrastructure on campuses adds to model conflicts the lack of appropriate bicycle facilities combined with disregarding the rules of the road creates conflicts with other modes of
Transportation these could be as i will discuss briefly soon could be overcome with providing better facilities education and enforcement although there are several factors that affect a bicycling choice the impacts of facilities for bicycling and the role of parking policies having the focus of several studies one of the major
Problems with cars is the amount of parking it requires on college campuses parking is a common problem underpriced parking subsidizes students who drive to campus while students who walk by or write transit to campus they rarely receive any subsidy these different treatments are now being recognized by a
Growing number of campuses and they are thinking about restricting parking in the campus core and implementing parking management program we charge higher fees and they’re coupled with innovative ways to just to promote alternative modes such as by screen walking and taking transit talking about the factors that influence
The choice of bicycling I would like to share the results of to campus transportation surveys that I conducted with you one was conducted at the university of maryland in april two thousand nine and other one was conducted at the ohio state university in april 2010 the survey instrument and
That we used was similar in both cases and i can say that the results that we got regarding the reasons that keep people from bicycling and the things that they would like to see on their campuses are pretty consistent the bicycle would share at the University of Maryland and Ohio State University are
Low compared to other campuses in the United States secured bicycle motor at doha state university is around seven percent and university of maryland when we did the survey was around six percent the ohio state university main campus is in columbus ohio and it’s located on around seven kilometers square area I
Don’t know if you have ever been to Ohio State campus but we have a beautiful campus and approximately 80,000 people attend school or work at The Ohio State University around fifty percent of these are undergraduate students thirteen percent are graduate and twenty-six percent our staff members giving you a
Little history about the City of Columbus and Ohio State Ohio State well historically the City of Columbus hasn’t been noted for its bicycle use the City of Columbus and the central Ohio region have generally been dominated by card table because of the low population density well interconnected highway
Network and the leg off transit provision over the past few years a strong movement has developed although expanding bicycle infrastructure the roadways and celebrating the cycling culture in Columbus during this period the City of Columbus and the county the Franklin County have seen considerable expansion involved on-road and off-road
Bicycle facilities well thus far these changes haven’t changed the weekday commuting patterns significantly however despite the fact that there are not significant increases in the numbers of bicycle riders in the Central Ohio region it is readily observable that the public significance of bicycle riders has grown because of the support
Infrastructure changes and policy changes as well as the creation of several websites and the use of social networking the general public is much more aware of the cycling community and the legitimacy of their needs has gained respect as I mentioned before the bicycle mode share on the Ohio State
Campus is low it’s around seven percent whereas the car mode share is very high which is around seventy-three percent the freshman at The Ohio State University I required to live on campus but a large number of students live adjacent to the campus property in private housing while many of the
Commute trips at The Ohio State University are well within bicycling range in terms of distance because the transportation infrastructure on and around campus is also oriented people continue driving their cars even for very short distances we conducted to Ohio State University campus Travel Survey it to be able to understand the
Needs of bicycles and to facilitate better bicycle planning the campus survey was designed and administered online to students faculty and staff we chose to do a web-based survey because of the ease of data entry time and cost efficiency the survey link was posted on the oil co transportation in parking
Services website in addition to this we emailed the survey link to a random sample of faculty staff and is one important feature here that I would like to mention is although the survey focused on bicycle related issues we did not advertise the survey as a bicycle survey we did this to how the
Non bicyclists take the survey as well and understand their perceptions and behaviors and why they are not bicycling one these are some of the key questions that were asked at the campus travel patterning survey one question at the very beginning of the survey asked the respondent when was the last time he or
She rode a bicycle these responses led to a grouping of the respondents as bicyclists and non bicyclists and direct them to questions for bicyclists and the questions for non bicyclists the respondents who have never rode or road more than a year ago were classified as mon bicyclist and many of the questions
Were the same were both groups they were just paraphrased slightly in different words and the bicycles were as additional questions regarding their bicycling patterns we received around 2500 responses and around 2000 of these responses were complete responses based on the responses to the question when was the last time they rode a bicycle
Around half of the respondents were classified as vice quests around forty percent of the respondents who live off campus within five miles of campus around almost everyone has a driver’s license and of the people with driver’s license seventy percent have campus parking permits at Ohio State University
Well this slide presents the modal share is from the survey as you can see the most share is only seven percent and if you remember from the previous slide almost half of the respondents were identified as by spirits based on the last time they rode a bicycle so this
Table shows that although around half of the survey respondents ride bikes by screen is not their commuting mode to campus they may be riding their bicycles for regression elisa’s or around their neighborhoods but not to campus this result is actually consistent with the national data as well I’m looking at the
More cherries by status we can say that as expected the faculty members and staff members are less likely to bicycle as compared to the student population the respondents were also asked to choose their responses how they feel about certain transportation-related system characteristics as you can see a great majority of the survey respondents
Agree that the congestion on campus is bad parking is expensive and the flexibility of departure time is important as you can see that several survey respondents kill that campus is not safe after dark for walking and biking which has clear implications for non motorized transport modes one
Surprising finding that we found is only thirty eight percent agree that gas prices affect their transportation to assets um this table reveals an even more striking results most of those who are self-identified as bicyclist based on their responses to the question regarding whether they ride a bicycle or
Not and live within five months from the campus they are not commuting to campus by bicycle the dominance mode for trips even within five miles from campus is driving this finding requires further exploration why are the people who live close to campus and who already cycled for other purposes are not bicycling to
Campus so in order to analyze the factors that affect the bicycling patterns of the people who lived within the five miles of campus we segmented this population further into three groups the people in group 1 are identified as the first potential target group because their bicycles
They live within five miles of campus so if their needs are met they would be the easiest group to start biking the second group are non viscous but they own a bicycle or they do have access to a bicycle through a friend or family and the third group is the non bicyclist and
They do not own a bicycle and all these three groups are the respondents who live within the five miles off campus we asked them what prevents them from riding a bicycle or writing more to campus and what would encourage them to write more often to campus in these
Questions they were asked to choose the top five bicycle facility improvements and top for reasons that prevents them from bicycling and the responses are analyzed on the basis of the three population groups I just talked about just as a reminder the first group as you can see at the bottom of the slide
The first group are the bicyclist the second group are the non-whites quiz but they own a bicycle and it’s very groups are the third group is the non viscous and they do not own a bicycle well as you can see the reasons that keep people from bicycling tend to be similar for
All these three groups with the exception of the reason of not owning the bicycle and not having an interest or non by cyclists all three groups stated that they do not feel safe riding with vehicular traffic they also stated that the lack of bicycle lanes and pads
Is a reason that prevents them from bicycling in fact if you think about it these two factors are correlated as the University and the surrounding communities start building bicycle paths or separating the bicycle lanes from the vehicular traffic many of these concerns regarding regular traffic will be
Addressed so the solution to these are two major reasons is the same although thirty percent of the non-white cyclists reported that they do not have any interest in bicycling this shows that the remaining seventy percent which is the majority may consider bicycling if their needs are
As I mentioned we also asked him about the improvements that may encourage bicycling and in terms of these improvements the results view that both groups both bicycles and land by Scripps agree that the dedicated bicycle lanes trails and paths and more secure or covered bicycle parking would encourage
Them to ride more often bicycles also would like to see greater enforcement of traffic laws to protect cyclists and they would make use of a bicycle station on campus that provides pairs the respondents didn’t rank the educational classes on bicycle riding and safety as one of their top incentives however
These educational classes may actually help ease the concerns about safety killing say on the road the respondents were also asked to identify themselves as beginner cyclists intermediate cyclists and advanced cyclists a beginner cyclist as the name can explain itself are the ones who prefer to stick to the bicycle trails paths and
Sidewalks 8 and they do not want to mix with the regular traffic the intermediate cyclists are the ones who are somewhat comfortable writing in some traffic situations and the advanced cyclists are the confident cyclists who are comfortable writing in most traffic situations this slide presents the bicycling patterns of these three
Different bicycles types on campus and interesting finding is that people who identify themselves as an advanced or intermediate cyclists they are less likely to ride on sidewalk while around fifty three percent of the beginner cyclists right on the sidewalk this percentage is only around thirteen percent for the advanced cyclists as in
Many other states riding on the sidewalk is illegal on in ohio the ohio revised code requires bicycles to ride on the roadway so the bicycles are a road vehicle despite this of the bicyclist on campus continue to ride on the sidewalk due to the lack of proper infrastructure well being a
Beginner intermediate or advanced cyclist has links to the comfort level as well so as you can see the percentage of respondents who feel unsafe about vehicular traffic who cite the lack of bicycle lanes trails and paths as reasons that keep them from bicycling are the highest among by beginner
Cyclists the advanced cyclist feel safer about writing with vehicular traffic another interesting finding here is related to the distance although there are no statistically significant differences in terms of distance from campus the beginner cyclists tend to think that they live too far as compared to the intermediate and advanced
Cyclists even if they live at exactly the same distance um we found while we estimated more choice models with the data that we collected to understand and evaluate effects of travel characteristics socio demographics and personal attitudes on the mode choice to campus well I’m not going to talk about
The mathematical model or the detailed results here but I just want to say that as expected we found that the travel time and cost feeling safe and having options are the most important factors related to the bicycling choice well based on the model results what we recommended the university to
Transportation and parking services one of the recommendations we did was decreasing the travel time for bicyclists well other than living closer to campus there are some other ways to decrease the travel time for bicyclists this could be done by designating some of the road facilities or by cyclists as
They are generally shorter than the trails arranging the waiting time at certain intersections to pay burden on motorized modes and providing better transit integration to not to promote more combinations several individuals as we as i talk before are concerned about safety and this they actually site safety as being
One of the reasons that they do not take their bicycles to campus so we recommended that increased police patrol safety cameras particularly at bicycle parking areas and better lighting should help promote bicycling on campus while several individuals stated that they do not have trouble options and they drive
While there are actually two types of respondents who state that they do not have options some really do not have many options for they commute for instance daily a very far from campus and they are not living within a half a mile buffer of a transit station on the
Other hand some respondents who are more likely to be women and car drivers actually they do have options in their choice sets based on their proximity to campus and proximity to bus stops but report that they do not have options and they drive we were able to check this as
We asked the respondents the two streets crossing closest to their residential location so now that I told really about what are the reasons that keep from keep people from bicycling and what they would like to see on their campuses I will share some pictures from the University of Arizona campus as examples
Of how some of these needs may be met maybe several of you have visited the University of Arizona campus but I’ll give some background information and one thing that I would like to mention as you’ll in most of these pictures you will see that the campus is not very
Crowded or the bicycle racks or the bicycle facilities are not utilized but the reason for this is the fact that these pictures were taken during a break so the most of the population was not on campus well this is the view heading toward campus on the Speedway Boulevard
Which is a major to fair and at some point there are up to eight lanes to cross well despite the traffic volume and speed as you can see the generous bike lanes are provided and the route is generally used by the cyclists this is an underpass that connects parts of campus separated by
The speedway boulevard the boulevard that we just saw in the previous slide and as you can see the bicycle flow is separated from illustrates and the bike path is further divided by direction so there is this little fine here which shows this is a close-up version of the
Sign which shows the separation of pedestrians and bicyclists and the bicycle lane is further divided by direction this is an other on their past under the Speedway Boulevard as you can again see the directional flow of the bicycles and the separation between the pedestrians as you can see that on their
Past is well lit you can probably see the lighting fixtures there and it’s well mark landscape and uses texturize and colored papers to surface which makes it easier to understand who should walk or bike where this is the exit of the underpass and as you can see the signs and texture is continuous
Throughout so it doesn’t stop at certain locations it’s continuous throughout the university of arizona provides ample park by parking across campus at visible locations this is very important in terms of bicycle parking not to hide the bicycle racks behind the buildings or behind the car parking ones the bicycle
Racks should be visible to deter it test and to make people safe when you’re getting to their bicycles all the buildings at the University of Arizona have some bike bicycle parking and at some locations there are larger bicycle parking areas just like this one you can
Actually you say this this looks like a large commuter lot this is an internal campus bicycle path the path is again separated from the pedestrians in addition the flow of the flow the directional flow is clearly marked and if you can see please note that there is this emergency phone in the background
There is a seating area of the landscaping and the lighting here is a location where the bicycle parking is provided in the median between the pedestrian path and a bicycle path this is a nice transition spot for commuters to change modes because one of the problems that most universities face or
They are looking for answers in order to where to locate the bicycle racks this might be a good example for the solution so if you put the bicycle racks very close to the buildings and there’s a sidewalk caen parking then people generally do not walk their bicycles the
Bicycle rack but here the bicycle rack as you can see it’s in the median which is a transition between the bicycle mode to the pedestrian mode which actually reduces the conflicts between pedestrians and the bicyclists this shows the bicycle path intersecting with a major pedestrian pathway note that
There are colored papers to highlight that the cyclists are approaching a conflict area so they should probably reduce your speed or look around carefully all around the canvas there is a campus directories the signage and campus directory information is conveniently located near parking garages and the intersections of bicycle
And pedestrian pathways one nice thing about the University of Arizona campus is it is closed to traffic during the daytime transit and authorized vehicles enter campus during the day with an electronic pass and this obviously enhances the transit performance and makes campus circulation more safe and attractive for non-motorized modes this
Is a closer shot of the find which sells the road is closed between 7 to 4 30 during the daytime previously I showed you some bicycle racks which were at larger which were large in scale but not all bicycle parking is concentrated in large lots this shaded area along the
Intercampus drive has bicycle parking along its edge this is another underpass and this on their past doesn’t have enough width to properly accommodate a bicycle path so bicyclist must walk their bicycles through this underpass during the peak campus hours to ensure pedestrian safety so this is again another good example about planning for
Bicycles and pedestrians simultaneously on sidewalks and pedestrian areas cyclists must walk their bicycles to decrease conflicts and increase safety addresses again another example of such this is the main library of the campus and some of the parking here is covered under this structure which actually provides a natural shade during the
Especially during the summer months and this picture again as I mentioned these pictures were taken over the winter break but as you can see the parking the bicycle parking is still highly utilized almost everywhere on campus the bicycles and pedestrians are separated as you can see the sidewalk the pedestrian sidewalk
Is here and the bicycle route is to the left this is a bus transit facility on campus it as you can see it’s very attractively designed and it provides shelter and benches for those who are waiting for the bus and this is another picture of the transit station as you can see
Bicycle parking is provided at the transit stop and buses also do have fiscal racks if you want to take a bicycle on the bus with you well there are several bicycle routes which enter and exit campus and one advantage of the bicycle routes is that auto traffic is discouraged unless local here traffic
Cannot turn onto this route directly as you can see there is a do not enter sign and bicycles are exempt which clearly Anton enhances the bicycle safety cars must go around the block to access the street and the traffic lights are timed to allow bikes to clear the intersection
As you can see one advantage of this other than enhancing bicycle safety would be discouraging car traffic because they have to travel longer distances this is another picture of the bicycle route many intersections are on campus at the University of Arizona have sensors and valid that can tell when a
Bicycle is waiting to cross so that they do not have to wait for another car to come so that the sensors work so the intersections have sensors work specifically so these were some examples of facility provision from the University of Arizona campus now I would like to talk about in general what some
Campuses are doing in terms of administration encouragement and enforcement well before starting with administration encouragement and enforcement issues I would like to share the bicycle friendly universities as listed by the by Spike Lee org so the by click org awarded a platinum gold silver and bronze awards to universities depending on their
Bicycle friendliness so as you can see the platinum and the gold awards go to two universities from California which are Stamford Davis and Santa Barbara the silver the universities which got the silver award or portland state university of arizona oregon washington wisconsin medicine and the ones which
Got the bronze award are cornell emery michigan state university of california los angeles and university of maryland if you log into the bicycle league org you can actually see their criteria for giving these and works out so now we are collecting data on what are the administrative structure what are what
Is the infrastructure provision and what is the enforcement structure in these universities to understand the success stories so we are collecting data on whether there is a bicycle coordinator whether there are bicycle safety classes bicycle repair shops bicycle lanes police patrol registration removal of bounded bikes university relationships
With the MPO and the city and so on at these universities to actually understand which one’s of these are important in terms of define success in terms of poor universities this approach is actually similar to one of the pioneering research studies conducted in this area by ourselves in 2003 and the
Reference that study is available on the very last slide of this presentation so our several of these universities which are successful in terms of bicycle and pedestrian planning and bicycle and pedestrian issues they do have coordinators and bicycle and pedestrian communities as you can imagine the responsible responsibilities of a
Bicycle and pedestrian coordinator would the assessing the meats identifying opportunities coordinating events formulating and implementing plans and maintaining the canvas bicycle and pedestrian facilities some of the times there would be a person specifically focusing on bicycle pedestrian issues and sometimes that would be a alternative transportation person which actually looks that all alternative
Transportation options including car sharing carpooling zipcar and so on sim again several of the universities which are successful in bicycling and pedestrian issues they have committees for bicycles and pedestrians it is important to involve students in these communities because most of the times they bring the most expertise expertise
In terms of bicycling also involving local groups have an important role in monitoring and revising can be sustainable transportation policies campuses with bicycle committees and coordinators they tend to conduct surveys more and attract more funding funding is obviously needed to fund bicycle facilities such as paths lanes parking rugs lockers and obviously to
Pay a coordinator the revenues may come from student fees by school registration fees and fines for traffic and parking violations but also from foundations alumni associations state and federal sources to qualify for federal funding the campus transportation planners need to work closely with the surrounding planning agencies in the development and
Implementation of local and regional plans while another area of intervention here for the committee and coordinator is the communication of transportation practices with the campus and with the surrounding communities here are some of the universities which have coordinators and committees so the Wisconsin medicine Stanford Santa Barbara Maryland Davis
They have both committees and coordinators some of the rest have a committee only as I mentioned this research is still ongoing we’re Kentucky contacting these universities to understand what is their own administrative structure so in terms of facilities several campuses look at bicycling and pedestrian issues together however it’s important to separately
Consider the needs of the two groups in order to reduce model conflicts just like we sell at the University of Arizona examples for pedestrians there should be a network of sidewalks dedicated zones and wayfinding maps and the facilities for bicyclist should over safety convenience comfort directness and general attractiveness illogical and
Well defined bicycle network composed of different types of light waves should be implemented with identifiable links to all campus facilities the bicycle paths at UC Davis extend the forests across all campuses in the United States for instance UC Boulder has multi used paths with separate lanes for bicycles and
Pedestrians where pedestrians shared is faced by cyclists and some campuses have roadways from which all motor traffic is prohibited except service delivery and emergency vehicles continuing with the facilities bicycle parking racks are important features for the bicyclists and bicycle thefts on campus generally happens when the bicycle is at the
Bicycle parking rack and the theft can be a major deterrent to bicycle use so secure bicycle parking racks and lockers are required and this is very important the bicycle racks should be located in places where they are visible and well-lit in addition to bicycle racks several campuses report having bicycle
Lockers for rent for instance University of Washington at zero is one of them bicycle racks should also be installed on buses that serve the campus locations this type of synergy has the potential to encourage more people to use these two moles together integrating bicycles with transit also gives the opportunity
To bike to those people who do not live very close to campus while several universities report that clothing lockers and changing rooms are available in some buildings in their campuses may meet through the sports facilities it’s important that they become more widespread and are offered in more locations than just sports facilities
For instance the faculty and staff members at the University of Maryland can use the showers and changing rooms at the sports facility even if they’re not members of the facility well in the end there is the issue of proper proper facility maintenance one shouldn’t forget that maintaining the casualties
Is as important as providing them at the first place there are many promote promotional measures that can be taken to advertise alternative transportation these include maps groceries news in the local and regional mass media special discounts at local bicycle stores and networking with other transportation professionals and interest groups clear
And informative bicycle maps should be a priority on every campus and as you may remember one of the improvements that the people would want to see at the Ohio State was how was clear maps which identified by screen locations on Tempest are having a bicycle store or a
Bicycle shop which quick provide quick repairs and tire inflation is also seen in many of the universities which are successful in bicycling several of these new verses as promotion they report having and celebrating days like Bike to Work Day Bike to Work Week and her they some of these universities have
Their own bicycling based instance the University of days Davis has a day called cycle cycle abrasion which they celebrate their biking on that day this is a picture of a brochure from the Cornell University which shows how to be how to bike ride how to bike safely this
For sure is actually three or four pages I just put one page here to show you an example of what a brochure could look like they also provide a detailed campus bicycle map and nowadays the internet is an outstanding way to promote non-motorized struggling all of these
Campuses which are which do have a bicycle program and which have which are successful they have well-designed and informative web pages which have links to other online resources you can also click on several bicycle parking and root apps from their website and several of these universities have websites
Dedicated to pedestrians as well most of these several of these websites talk about the benefits of walking and cycling at the introduction part of their websites for instance here this is the website view from Berkeley which starts with commuting to campus by by skills or on third is a healthy
Inexpensive and reliable form of transportation continue with the other features of these successful universities education and enforcement is one of the biggest factors well some planners argue that the neglect of pedestrian bicycling safety in the United States has made these most dangerous ways of getting around in fact
Many bicycles operate their vehicles in a dangerous or unlawful manner while others do not know how to write their bicycles with traffic and use Howard’s many bicycles feels safer riding on the sidewalk not bearing in mind eventually collisions with pedestrians and I’m not even mentioning the fact that in several
States this is illegal and these facts call for education as well as enforcement only a few of these campuses report having regular bicycle safety classes and only a few confirmed limited law enforcement the law enforcement is actually a more strict at universities which have higher bicycle motors for
Instance Davis is one of the universities where the enforcement takes place and it takes place strictly there will be fines and tickets for incorrectly parked bicycles and for those who do not obey the rules of the road well if you think about it with around forty two percent bicycle Mon
Cher they really have to be strict about these rules and regulations to avoid any cows in on campus and I would like to reiterate our findings from the survey here about education and enforcement as the people become more and more advanced cyclist they feel more comfortable with writing with the traffic they complain
Less about the lack of bicycle lanes trails pads and they feel more safe about regular traffic and if you look at their writing patterns they tend to write on the street more as compared to the beginner cyclists several of these universities have bicycle registration as well most of these universities do
Not have the bicycle registration mandatory but it is strongly encouraged and the benefits of bicycle registration is for the first of all it provides a record of ownership it aids the authorities in locating the owner of a stolen bike it creates a community so some of these campuses are now thinking
About doing let’s say monthly raffles and self to give out bicycle-related gear to people who have registered their bicycles and the more bicycles are registered the more leverage in funding by school programs and facilities so how do we get there so we talked about some good examples from the
University of Arizona and what other campuses are doing in terms of facilitating bicycles and pedestrians on their campuses most of these tempest is for successful in bicycling and pedestrian issues have bicycle and pedestrian master plans or if they do not have a master plan specifically for bicycle and pedestrian the issues
Related to non-motorized transportation planning is is dealt with in their larger transportation master plan with a great detail well each campus is different so each campus will have its own set of problems and assets so the needs will be different so the reasons to create a pedestrian bicycle
Pedestrian or bicycle master plan will be different on each campus that is why the public participation is critical at this stage of creating a pedestrian and bicycle master plan the community members should help important plans vision goals and priorities this can help build support for the plan as community members we can’t become
Invested in the plan and they help ensure that the community members needs are being served the plan would be would make the tempest plenaries and able to create buying and sense of ownership so who owns the bicycle program is a transportation and parking services of the university is it the police
Department is at the facilities department so who owns the bicycles on campus it gives you an idea about where you are headed what are their visions and goals and it gives you a clear plan for the resources in terms of time and we well each a bicycle plan or a
Pedestrian plan would have would first look at the existing conditions on canvas campus would have established visions and milestones would provide policy program and facility recommendations and have an implementation schedule and a work plan setting milestones is an important step and it allows communities to show progress the vision the goals
Are they should be clear and they can show where a plan is going and how is how it is going to get there a plan should provide a vision of what a community will look like what what do we want our campus to look like in the
Future so the goals should be measurable or follow up and the goals should also be achievable for instance of for the ohio state university with the bicycle not share of seven percent the goal of the plant shouldn’t be having by sqm oath cher forty percent in one year
Because this is not going to be achievable and when it is not achieved it’s going to look like there is the plan has been unsuccessful so here are some examples of the detailed objectives from the UC of UC Berkeley’s Bicycle Plan they categorized objectives under two headings the one the first one is
Related to the bicycle infrastructure and the second one is developing and improving the planning and programs under the first one on the detailed objectives are improving the campus by boy network and closing route gaps providing convenient bicycle parking to all campus destination discouraging prohibitions against bicycling by identifying improvements and under the
Second one developing and improving planning and programs there are three major categories the first one is interagency coordination the second one education and incentive programs and the third one is bicycle enforcement and theft prevention under the first one they do have the coordination goals with several agencies for instance
Coordinating the bike race and bicycle parking with agencies such as the Alameda costa county transit bart city of berkeley east bay regional park district including the UC berkeley bicycle projects and programs in planning and regional planning documents and work with the city of berkeley to more rapidly implement city by improvements
Related to campus travel here are some more goal examples which are more general so the goal and objectives of the UC berkeley plan who are very specific but you would see more general goal examples in other plans for instance improving access and mobility improving personal health encouraging physical health creating a balanced
Transportation system and housing safety reducing traffic congestion improving or maintaining existing facilities enhancing pedestrian network connectivity and so on some of these might be more difficult than the others are in terms of measuring measuring success toe and all the bicycle and pedestrian master plans as I mentioned before they should have a background
Information on the current conditions in terms of the infrastructure transportation system and policy system the plan should provide the inventory of expected changes and the public public the public participation process that will help to plan to get there the public participation process provides an institutional memory of the activities
The individuals and organizations of the be documented the plans recommendations could be in various areas including the physical projects policies programs and encouragement education and enforcement so under the policies there might be recommendation in recommendations in terms of funding changes for instance how the pedestrian and bicycle projects get
Weighted or compared against other transportation projects under the physical projects there could be a bicycle lane additions traffic calming initiatives of again foreign policies and physical projects which together will act on the transit interface enhancements the infrastructure maintenance programs and for education and promotion there would be commuter alternative programs cultural
Recreational and health related programs to promote walking and biking and there could be programs that are organized ongoing activities that engage individual in individuals in physical activity either directly or indirectly so to sum up of what I’ve been talking about we talk about turn problems on college campuses they are barriers for
Bicycling some examples from successful campuses and the basics of a pedestrian and bicycle master plan I would like to conclude by saying that university campuses can be labs for testing and implementing various alternative transportation strategies because they’re the population on college campuses are generally young individuals
Which would be more open to changes the sustainable transportation planning policies on campuses should include incentives for walking biking taking transit the combination of all these notes right sharing and discouraging the use of single occupancy cars and finally linking the transportation planning to the land use planning in the area well
Thank you this is all I had to say and I will be happy to answer any questions that you have and this is my email address if you think about any questions later on you can contact me and I’ll be able to answer your questions and one
Final remark in the last slide I have the key references for pedestrian and bicycle planning if you are interested in this area these will be very valuable for you thank you well thank you to start off one of the questions asks what’s from Elizabeth instruments know what was a website that
You gave to take the quiz do you remember that which please I it was something org slash Sam do you have no um I am NOT very sure what which website you are asking for are you talking about the bicycle friendly universities got something org or can you clarify the
Question that’s all I got in um if there’s more that comes in from Elizabeth I’ll let you know but I just said nothing or maybe or maybe she can email me because I’m not sure which one she asked for okay so our next question is from Trish many campuses use parking
Fees as an important part of their financial planning what is your experience when these fees are reduced by changing the mo chair um well actually this is my question that we have been discussing with the university of maryland and the ohio state university parking and transportation
Services so the question is i think well if more and more people start taking transit and using bicycles or walking than they will be less parking demand so the revenues or from parking will be significantly reduced so to be honest um I don’t think there is a study done to
Understand what’s going to happen if the parking demand goes very low and this reason for that is even if you’re trying to increase the non motorized modes and the transit modes great to high levels still there is so many people who want to park on campus the other thing is
Right now the universities are receiving some cities from other programs to promote sustainability so the parking fees e the revenues supporting the transportation system on campus okay and then also with that do you recommend that adjacent communities work with the campus in to what extent I’m sure because of thing is
As I mentioned on the survey results and with personal experience it’s not only the on-campus roads that need to be improved because if somebody is going to come to campus by his or her and her bike unless he or she is living on campus he they’re going to use some of
The roads which are not on campus so if the roads which are coming to campus are not supporting bicycle infrastructure then it’s going to be difficult to get them on campus so the continual T the continuation of the bicycle infrastructure is very important so yes the campus transportation planner is the
Decision makers should be working with the adjacent communities and they should be implementing their plans together so that there is going to be continuity we would like to have this similar infrastructure as everywhere else as as much as possible so that it’s not going
To be 13 to ride on a bicycle lane the next street you have to do something else so we want to have the continuation as much as possible ok and then Jonathan has conflicts between bike bikes and pedestrians is a big problem on the University of a I don’t maybe Arizona
Campuses and others I’m sure cell phone use has made that problem worse designated separate facilities can help but crossings and multi-use areas remain a big challenge do you have any further thoughts on that oh well actually I really agree with his comment well we didn’t ask about this on our last survey
At Ohio State but this this court this quarter we are doing another survey and we’ll ask about people’s behavior in terms of listening to music or talking on the phone when they’re walking or biking and how many times they get into accidents but this is a major issue and last quarter my students
That counts at intersections and they actually experienced that several of the people who are biking we’re walking they’re not paying any attention to their surroundings they’re just listening or talking on the phone so this is a major issue and one thing to deal with this is again awareness so the
People should know that if they’re walking or biking they should be more careful and probably they should be paying that much attention to their headsets but the other thing is separating bicycles and pedestrians on campuses would definitely help as the examples from the University of Arizona ok and then robber asked whether seems
Like a significant factor in bicycle use do you know of if anything can be done to make by selling more attractive include or wet climates well actually now I would like to can you still see my screen yes can the audience still see my screen as well yes ok so now I would
Like to oh sorry I would like to go back to one of the slides which shows the bicycle friendly universities and as you can see some of the universities in the the ones that I got the silver award and I don’t know if you have ever been there like the University of Minnesota
University of Wisconsin at Madison they do have a very cold climate but still people do bicycle there so obviously weather is an important factor and when we did the survey people comment that extreme weather conditions make people change their modes however I think if you have the right infrastructure in
Place there is a culture as well so if you see a lot of people bicycling even if the weather is cold then you are going to be more you’re going to be more likely to bicycle and again coming back to the idea bot provide giving about the habit
So if you start bicycling on a regular basis then even when the weather gets cold obviously it’s not going to be as fun as the warmer climate but still you will continue biking and for this I would like to give the examples of Minnesota and Wisconsin and also Cornell
Is has mr. Cornell and Michigan State they do have very cold climates as well but still people there are bicycling so to come back to on you know whither is a factor in the bicycling choice and i myself am affected by the Witter I don’t like bicycling when it is icy or snowy
But if you see the other universities with colder climates and being bicycle cited as being bicycle friendly I think there’s still something to be done ok our next question is from avi on the a s example of bicycle paths showed the use of a large amount of paper stone for
Path construction what impact does path construction have on the impervious service surface like are their campuses that build bike infrastructure to lessen the impact of runoff and erosion well to be honest um I’m not very sure about the answer to this question but if this person can contact me later on probably
I can research and get back to her so I’m not very sure about that issue ok our next question is from Heather can the funding you are planning to use to construct the infrastructure also be used for education safety training so um some of the fundings will have strings
Attached but some of them will not so some of the fundings are will be just specifically for education and enforcement and some of them will be for infrastructure so it depends on where you are getting the funding from of what will be this attached to this funding so I mean
Several of the federal and state funding will explain it in their in their files so I think this is a very general question and the answer will change depending on the fun funding and then from your research Philip is asking how important is having covered and or secure lock access either solar or
Shared parking how important is secured it’s having covered and or secure parking like lock access either solar ship solo or shared so um again for this one we actually had other detailed questions on this one on the survey which I didn’t present because of his harm constraints but generally the
People who are bicyclists already who are people who are already bicycling are interested in these are covered bicycling spaces and however most universities which provide these they actually charge the users for these and the obviously then it comes to the cost-benefit analysis type of decision making so the more expensive the bike is
The people are more interested in using these covered bicycle spaces but our research the surveys results show that people are more interested in bicycle parking which are close to their buildings so several universities are thinking about putting these bicycle and shared parking facilities in garages however our research shows that people
Will actually prefer to have them close to their buildings ok and then Brenna’s just wondering are the transportation surveys that you mentioned available online like he’s specifically interested in how you curate and define questions that resulted in mode split data um if he actually contacts me I can provide
Him the paper is that a row on both the university of maryland and ohio state surveys so we have published papers on both of them the data is not available online because the data has restrictions in terms of the privacy because we ask people about their socio-economic characteristics and their
Residential locations so because of the internal review board’s restrictions I’m not able to share the data online but i’ll be happy to share the results of the survey the reports that we wrote and the papers of you rode with him if he contacts me later on okay great our next
Question is from Daniel do you have any information on land use surrounding the campus because for him it seems that the more urban or density near campus would be a good thing can you confirm this so if yeah I think he’s asking the question in general right right like if it’s in
Like an urban or a higher density area would this have a higher impact on the infrastructure that’s put in with the bicycles that is correct actually the research shows that neural campuses or the campuses which are isolated areas are more car-dependent whereas the campuses which are in more urban
Settings there are less car-dependent okay um our next question is from Richard and the Vice of the bicycle planning and design stage where they’re the landscape architect and civil engineers involved to provide input in terms of hard surfacing vegetation and green pervious pavement being integrated um were like work those things being
Integrated like it appears that some bike parking areas were located on turf and deteriorating um well it depends on how detailed the bicycle master or bicycle and pedestrian master plan is and how much funding the university has to support bicycle planning or the bicycle infrastructure so a few of the
Bicycle plans that I examined they actually didn’t have didn’t have modules in terms of the environmental impacts on but landscaping about how they look where they should be locating how should the area look like landscaping is definitely a dressed in these bicycle master plans okay and then
This is just to the audience members if you guys still have questions please be sure to send those in so we can get those s during the remaining of the question answer session so our next question is from Phil to what extent if any would any other types of forms of
Campus design such as office campus benefit from types of traffic producing features you described in today’s webinar can you ask you a question again did the office I didn’t get it okay um to what extent if any would other types or forms of campus designs such as like
Office like office parks I believe he’s trying to talk about benefit from the types of traffic reducing features you described today so how would the campuses will benefit from the single occupancy car reduction I believe you think so well and then like they have a follow-up question to that like to what
Degree do the characteristics of a campus and relation to those of the surrounding town or city for instance affect the types of traffic reducing features that may be success successfully implemented so um I will I will answer the question as I understand it so um well the campuses are the major
Traffic generators wherever they are located because there is so much population coming to the campus and this definitely creates a little traffic for the neighboring communities as well so some of these neighboring communities ages and communities they try to deal with this factor by providing parking permits so that’s the people who are
Coming to the campus will not be able to park there some art some of them are trying to restrict the traffic which comes to campus it’s a question mark whether they’re being successful or not so when the single you can see car traffic to campuses videos obviously the neighboring
Communities are going to be relieved in this sense so if there are more people car sharing or bicycling or walking to campus that we list car is passing through their neighborhoods so for instance if you think about Ohio State and how the neighboring streets and also the highways gets crowded during the
Peak hours you would be able to understand how what a relief would it be when the car traffic reduces the other issues with campuses is the land on campus is very valuable so we would like to use this land as much as possible for additional buildings more green space
Hard not another part by mode more green space and for people to get together but as you see in several campuses this valuable space is all given two-car parking lots and enrollments are increasing the demand for car parking is increasing so there’s a question mark on
What are we going to do with these cars so the campuses are actually under a lot of stress in this situation so reducing the demand for single occupancy vehicles will actually benefit the campuses in terms of the valuable land on campus as well okay our next question is from Gary
Many older campuses have historic core areas that cannot be modified easily to accommodate large volumes of cyclists are still providing a safe environment for pedestrians are there good examples of methods for improving cross campus bicycle routes while still retaining Professor Ian only zones within the core
Campus um well actually if you have if you remember the University of Arizona canvases and how there are under passes for bicycles and pedestrians for underneath the highways so for some universities this could be told about as an option but for universities which have a storycorps which is more pedestrian so
These universities generally do not have a lot of cars passing by as well and at those historic locations and the core where cars of sorry where pedestrians and bicycles will not be able to co-exist together there’s the bicycle the bicycle should walk their bicycles so you have seen it in some of the
Pictures that are shared with you from the University of Arizona when the space is scarce when there will be a little pedestrian traffic the bicycles are asked to walk their bicycles so this is how several universities which smaller core areas are dealing with the situation right now alright our next
Question is from Douglas do you incorporate any of the principles of crime prevention through Environmental Design when designing campus bike facilities um I believe he’s asking about how where to locate the bicycle racks and so on so well I’d say Ohio State University I would say we are
Getting there so we’re trying to put the new bicycle racks at two places as visible as possible and we’re trying to provide either natural lighting so we try to provide they’re visible there in front of the building or we would like me to try to provide lighting for them
So the other thing about the pedestrian issues and parking is we with the new newly built parking garages and if you have ever come to Ohio State’s you would see that at the elevators at at the stairs you can see the building from outside so there are no walls
Surrounding so if it is well lit and it’s visible from outside it’s going to reduce the possibility of crime but as I mentioned to Douglas this question some of the pictures that we saw from universe the poison I’m putting the bicycle racks at locations which are as
Visible as possible is the way to deal with bicycle theft to a certain except unfortunately add throughout my conversations with some campus planners not here at the Ohio State University elsewhere I’ve heard comments like bicycle parking is ugly so we would like to put it to a
Side which is not very visible which which actually brings all these questions and all these negative aspects about well if you put the bicycle parking in a place which is not very visible from outside that is actually going to attract all the tests and the people who are not being feeling safe
When they’re getting their bicycles so to Douglas this question yes we’re trying to do it as much as possible here and as a general recommendation the bicycle parking should be at locations which are very visible and well-lit okay our next question is from Rob they are currently building a new parking ramp at
Their University in Wisconsin do you have any suggestions about how to include bicycle friendly features into this building well I haven’t seen the building so I’m not very sure about how to answer this question but so this is like a car parking garage and he’s talked he’s asking me about the ramp so
If they if it is possible if there’s a separate entrance for bicycles that will be great so to reduce the bicycle and cart conflicts most of the times the bicycles would use the entrances that the pedestrians you so putting signs saying that walk your bicycle or pay attention to the car traffic pay
Attention to the pedestrians would be some of the things that I would think on top of my mind but again I haven’t seen the building I don’t know in which context it is so um that is how I these are general things that are in my mind’s not specific recommendations right all right
Our next question is from Richard have you seen any types of green design using bicycles used in bicycle designs such as pervious pavement rain gardens smalls are just adjacent to bike path etc again about the design principles I’m not one hundred percent sure about the green
Design but i can again never the similar question on this topic so i can actually look this up and i can share with them if they contact me again later on okay another question from douglas are there more issues to address on campuses with large athletic facilities which attract
Many people that drive cars and need large parking areas is that an issue that is an issue and that’s an interesting question because a few of my students did a project on that last year and they are now in there now in touch with the transportation and parking services so some universities they
Actually provide parking bicycle parking valet services for athletic events so instead of so they are trying to actually promote alternative modes not only for commuting but for athletic events as well so if you’re going to come for an athletic event why don’t you ride your bicycle or why don’t your car
Share or why don’t you take the transit so um I mean we are looking at bicycling and walking issues as a whole so we’re not only looking at them in terms of the commuting perspective so it’s enough promotion enough advertisement about the athletic events and how to come to
Athletic events and how have you can actually leave your car at home and come with another mode of transportation I think that would be the way to deal with athletic events and car parking on campus so what my students were actually proposing was having bicycle parking available very close to at the Dickey
Ones and there would be bicycle valet Parkers which will take your bicycle and the so you don’t have to look for parking space and there will be some bicycle rentals which would be available at car parks which are not in central core campus area and you can actually ride
Your bike rental bike and come to the core campus with this bike so there are several ideas from different campuses how to deal with the athletics and I think one of the innovative ones was doing bicycle rentals for athletic days after the event days and trying to promote the other modes of
Transportation or athletic events okay our next question is from Daniel how does leadership support efforts at success like go into successful campus programs like is there more than just a coordinator maybe like a civil engineer to implement the plans um like is a civil engineer required for the backing
Or is there a president or anyone in particular that you need ticket well actually um having a coordinator is an indicator that the campus is interested in walking and biking issues but the coordinator himself or herself will not have all the power to implement a bicycle or a pedestrian plan so
Obviously the leadership the support of the upper administration is a must because if the upper administration has no interest in biking and they just put that person because they feel like they need to put a bicycle coordinator then obviously none of the plans will go nowhere so upper administration support
Is very important so if there’s support from the upper administration and other institutions on campus such as the facilities management transportation services the police department and so on they’re generally caught they have generally different things on different campuses if all these institutions are supporting a bicycle plan if the upper
Administration is also into bicycle plan is also into implementing bicycle plans then there will be the success in terms of having a civil engineer or expert in planning generally how these universities deal with these with the bicyclist master planning and digitally hire an outside consultant to do the
Bicycle and pedestrian master plan for them so and this outside consultants might have several GIS experts or a civil engineer or an expert in planning in their team to deal with the campus transportation campus planning aspect the coordinator will as the name implies will be coordinating the efforts between the upper administration institutions
And people who are doing the campus transportation campus bicycle and master plan so I haven’t seen a coordinator sitting down by himself or herself and providing a master plan on her own so she coordinates according to the my school groups the pedestrian groups of registration and generally this is done
By an outside consultant although if the transportation services has the in-house capabilities than and if they have support from let’s say the department’s academic departments between university they can definitely go ahead and do it within the university but in general what I’ve seen as they give it to an
Outside consultant to look at campus to come up with ideas and during this process as I mentioned the public participation is very important because then people on the campus will have their ideas shared and the consultant will take into account the experienced expertise of the people who actually
Experience the bicycle facilities or the pedestrian facilities every day on campus okay and then this will be our last question because we are about out of time brabus or says at their universities june stone rather bikes as much during the winter and thus leave their bikes change to chain two racks
That get covered with snow would providing a central storage facility covered and mocked for winter storage be a good solution I would say yes and as a matter of fact although these are not areas which they have a lot of snow some of the universities in California they have
Long-term storage facilities I’m not sure if he is asking in terms of long-term or just doing daily like you park your bicycle go to your class and you come back and it’s all covered in snow and in those cases in either of these cases I would say yes the central
Storage facility will be helpful in terms of bicycle parking the other solution would be providing the other solution would be providing sheltered bicycle parkings so if the bicycle parking has a shelter then there will be less snow going on bicycles alright well I just want to thank you so much for
Giving today’s presentation we are out of time so for those of you still remaining online I just want to go through a couple quick reminders on the closing remarks to log your seam credit for attending today’s session please go to ww PNA org slash cm and select activities by day and then underneath
Friday april 815 you’ll find campus planning for pedestrians and bicyclists and like I said this is up already so you can once you log out of here you can go in claim your credits and then as I said before we are recording today’s session so you’ll be able to find a
Video recording and a PDF of today’s webinar at wwu ta PA org slash webcast archive and this should be out by Monday so again I just want to thank you all for attending today’s session and another thing you too uncle so forgiving today’s presentation thank you thank you
