Abstract:

A brief overview of the adoption of European bicyclist- and pedestrian-friendly designs and practices in the United States finds that providing better facility designs following European models is only one component of the process whose goal is to improve bicycling and walking conditions. To improve pedestrian and bicyclist safety and mobility in the United States requires a comprehensive, five-E approach—a concerted combination of engineering, education, enforcement, encouragement, and evaluation.
