Over 40% of urban bicyclist fatalities occurred at intersections in 2017, and cities are increasingly exploring the use of protected intersections to increase bicycle safety. This workshop will provide an overview of current design guidance and research, including NACTO’s recent “Don’t Give up at the Intersection” guidebook and presentations from leading researchers in the field on current knowledge gaps. The review will be followed by an interactive breakout discussion based on selected case studies to identify bicycle intersection design knowledge gaps and research needs.
