Install cycle tracks, bike lanes, or on-street cycling
Description: Install cycle-tracks, bicycle lanes, or on-street cycling. In the context of this analysis, cycle-tracks are defined as bi-directional, and are separated from motor vehicle traffic by parallel parked cars, concrete curbs, or painted lines with delimiting posts. Bicycle lanes are defined as unidirectional and are not separated from traffic by a physical barrier.
Prior Condition: Roadways without cycle facilities. This treatment involves the installation of a physically-separated, bidirectional cycle track with parking between the cycle track and traffic.
