Synthesis of Information Related to Highway Practices. Topic 56-05. Traffic Analysis Practices for Non-Motorized Modes (Vulnerable Road Users)

Traffic analysis, whether for operational, design, or planning purposes, plays a crucial role in informed decision-making regarding transportation investments. While historically focused on motorized modes and roadway facilities, recent decades have seen advancements in incorporating non-motorized modes into traffic analysis practices. Despite the development of methodologies like the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) for non-motorized modes, there is limited information on how state DOTs are integrating these modes into their traffic analysis processes. The objective of this synthesis is to document the current state of the traffic analysis practice (not limited to the deterministic methods such as HCM) for non-motorized modes (or multimodal analysis).
