Green Bike Lane Evaluation for Florida Pavements

The objective of the research is as follows: (1) Conduct a comprehensive review of nationwide and Florida’s green bike lane (GBL) experience; (2) Identify and document the best practices (good performing GBL projects) as well as the causes of premature pavement failures on poorly performing GBL projects; (3) Identify alternative GBL materials or construction methods that may reduce the application costs and increase the pavement performance while being effective in delineating GBLs; (4) Conduct laboratory and field testing for evaluation of GBL products; and (5) Develop Florida guidelines for GBL application and update the existing GBL specification.
