The Bicycle Planning & Safety course provides guidelines for planning of safe on-road and shared use bicycle facilities. The background of bicycling is outlined including predictable behavior and the history of bicycling. The intermodal system is discusses as it relates to the design of neighborhoods to promote safe and effective links to destinations where people go for their daily needs. Bicycle planning is discussed in detail. The basic principles for developing a bicycle plan are outlined. The process starts with model planning process, progresses through comprehensive community planning, development of goals and objectives, and ends with the selection and development of options. Bicycle safety is also addressed. Bicyclists are involved in highly characteristic crashes often associated with age, experience and ability. While only 15% of bicycle crashes involve a motor vehicle, these crashes tend to be the most serious, and hence have been studied more. The seven most common bicycle-motor vehicle crashes are identified and defined. The importance of bicycle helmets is also stressed. The course is designed to provide a basic knowledge of bicycle planning and safety from which planners and designers can use this information to develop the safest and most efficient facilities possible.
