A New Traffic Planning Theory for Pedestrian and Bicycle Based upon Compatibility Concept

一条路上，行人、自行车、婴儿车、轮椅、汽车等各种个人出行方式应有尽有。有必要确定这些模式的优先次序，并增加它们的兼容性，以避免各种模式造成的混乱。特别是，自行车在交通安全和交通拥堵方面造成了交通问题。本研究旨在提出一种基于相容概念的行人与自行车交通规划新理论，刻画两者共存的条件。研究结果如下：1.研究结果。最近在日本，由于高机动性的需求、老龄化社会和环境问题等社会变化，个人出行方式正在显著多样化。其特点是电动化和小型化。然后，一些模式在大小、性能和形式上几乎相同。因此，很难区分相似的模式。道路上行人和自行车的问题得到了解决。从自行车道结构、行人和交通设施三个方面分析了自行车的行为。然后对个人出行方式的兼容性进行了分析。因此，描述了兼容性的要点。为了对自行车道路空间进行评价，并利用该清单评价自行车友好型道路空间，编制了自行车兼容性检查表。从心理阶段的角度考虑短途出行方式的优先选择。然后优先级排序就变得清晰了。利用自行车兼容性检查表，提出了一种基于兼容性概念的行人和自行车交通规划理论。

Various personal travel modes such as pedestrian, cycle, baby carriage, wheelchair, car and so on are on a road. It is necessary to establish the priority and to increase the compatibility of those modes in order to avoid confusions caused by the various modes. Particularly, the bicycle has caused traffic problems in traffic safety and congestion. The aims of this investigation are to a new traffic planning theory for pedestrian and bicycle based upon compatibility concept and to depict the coexistence conditions. The results are as follows.1. Recently in Japan, personal travel modes are remarkably diversifying by reason of social changes such as the needs for high mobility, aged society, and environmental problems. The characteristics are electrification and miniaturization. Then some modes are nearly same in size, performance, and form. So it is difficult to distinguish the similar modes. The problems of pedestrians and bicycles on road are grasped.2. The bicycle behaviors in connection with cycle track structure, pedestrians and traffic facilities are analyzed. And then the compatibility of personal travel modes is analyzed. So the points of compatibility are depicted.3. The bicycle compatibility checklist is developed in order to evaluate the bicycle road space, and to evaluate the bicycle friendly road spaces using this checklist.4. The priority of short distance travel modes is considered from the viewpoint of psychological phase. And then the priority ranking becomes clear.5. A new traffic planning theory for pedestrian and bicycle based upon compatibility concept are developed using bicycle compatibility checklist.
