Research on the Setting Method of Buffer Zones Between Motor and Non-motor Vehicles of Urban Roads
This article analyzes the advantages,disadvantages,and applicable conditions of common separation methods between motor and non-motor vehicles in Beijing.When the separation width is smaller,buffer zones should be used.This article analyzes the effects of different lane widths and the proportion of electric bicycles on cy-cling indicators such as speed,acceleration,following distance and delay.The results show that all the above indi-cators change in a certain pattern with the increase of non-motorized vehicle width when traffic volume is certain.But it will gradually stabilize when the non-motorized vehicle lane width meets the demand.Subsequently,this arti-cle provides the method of marking buffer zones,the requirements for setting isolation facilities,and isolation meth-ods suggestions for different remaining widths of non-motorized lanes,which provide reference for actual engineer-ing design.
