Abstract:

Experience has shown that developing bicycle- and pedestrian-friendly communities requires a comprehensive approach that includes more than simply engineering and constructing bike lanes and sidewalks. This comprehensive approach includes: Engineering—designing and constructing roads for bicyclists and pedestrians, Education—teaching or training bicyclists, pedestrians, motorists, and other road users, Enforcement—ensuring that all road users follow traffic laws and rules of the road, Encouragement—providing incentives beyond physical infrastructure, Evaluation—confirming that the intended outcomes have been produced. Many of the previous lessons in this Student Workbook have concentrated on the engineering aspects of bicycle and pedestrian transportation. This lesson explores the fundamental elements of education, enforcement, and encouragement programs for bicycling and walking by providing examples of successful programs from around the country.
