Subjective Safety of Bicycle lnfrastructure at lntersections and Roundabouts

Cycling provides individual and societal benefits, such as improved health [1], faster intra-urban commuting [2], lower C02 emissions [3] and all in all lower societal costs [4] compared to most other traffic modes. However, the national average of the cycling mode share was only around 10% in 2008 and has not increased remarkably ever since [5]. Several studies indicate that the lack of subjective safety may be a crucial reason to refuse using the bicycle [6, 7].While there is evidence on how to improve subjective safety through infrastructure on road sections [8], there is none concerning intersections or roundabouts yet. To close that gap, we investigate subjective safety at junctions depending on different infrastructure designs. [From: Introduction]
