Abstract

An Advanced Stop-Line for cyclists (ASL) is designed to help cyclists through a signalled junction by enabling them to move off ahead of motor vehicles and clear the junction first. This makes the cyclists more visible to motorists and can reduce the risk of conflict, especially with turning motor vehicles. This paper describes schemes at four junctions in Bristol, Cambridge and Manchester. Compared with earlier schemes, these have a simplified layout based on the Dutch design. For some time, it has been thought that such a layout, which is cheaper to install, may be as effective as the original layout.
