Abstract

This paper, the authors focus on impacts of bicycles on traffic flow from the perspective of traffic capacity firstly reviewing the evaluation methods of impacts that bicycles have on saturation flowrates of motor vehicles at signalized intersections based on publications such as the USA Highway Capacity Manual, etc. This is followed by the analysis of vehicle behavior at signalized intersections in Japan, through traffic flow observations. It was shown that there are three types of interrelations between motor vehicles traveling straight ahead and bicycles at intersection approach of shared use. This analysis also showed that in relation to motor vehicles making left turns, implementation of traffic signals or phases that apply only to bicycles would be an effective means of traffic management from a safety perspective
