Abstract:This research project’s objective was to investigate the impacts of transit stop location (near-side versus far-side) on pedestrian safety and traffic operations at intersections. Three different video-based behavioral observation data collections at signals in Utah were utilized and studied: (1) transit stop events (interactions between transit vehicles and other vehicles) and transit rider crossing behaviors and vehicle conflicts; (2) pedestrian conflicts with right-turning vehicles (conflict severity, driver/pedestrian reactions); and (3) pedestrian crossing behaviors (crossing location, crossing behaviors). These outcomes were then statistically compared for near-side versus far-side transit stop locations.
