Abstract:An ever-increasing number of transportation agencies are implementing Road Diets, which reallocate vehicle lanes for a number of uses, including accommodating pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit. Road Diets are also a means of traffic calming that can reduce speeding-related crashes and improve overall roadway safety. However, a common concern associated with Road Diets is that the configuration could be harmful to the economic health of the neighborhood due to a reduction of traffic volume along the corridor.
