New Jersey Micromobility Guide – Bike Ped Resource Center
The New Jersey Micromobility Guide serves as a resource for micromobility users across the state, collecting and summarizing the laws and safety best practices that can make riders safer.
NJSPL – Implications of The E-Bike Boom for New Jersey
E-bikes are particularly important for low-income individuals, those with disabilities, those without access to a driver’s license or in carless households, and residents in transit deserts.
NJSPL Report: Transportation Priorities for Camden County
This report offers recommendations around enhancing reliability, expanding coverage and access, improving the infrastructure and access to information, and promoting environmentally sustainable practices in Camden County’s transportation system.
NJSPL Rethinking School Zone Safety Metrics
School zone safety improvements should incorporate the Safe System Approach, meaning that vehicle speeds must be addressed. Infrastructure improvements, such as sidewalk additions, should be coupled with traffic calming measures in order to improve safety.
SRTS Report: Bicycle and Pedestrian Involved Crashes in NJ
Pedestrians and cyclists face a higher risk of severe injury or death in crashes compared to motorists. In New Jersey, there were nearly 6,000 crashes that involved pedestrians and cyclists under the age of 18 years old between 2016 and 2020.
Research on Impacts of Working From Home During COVID-19
Results suggest those with higher educational attainment, higher incomes, and prior experience working at home are likelier to do so in the future.
Rutgers: Bike Lanes Reduce Traffic Speeds
“We are giving you more evidence that bike lanes save lives,” said Hannah Younes, a lead author of the study and a postdoctoral research associate at the Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center in the Rutgers Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy.
Traffic Speeds Decrease When Bike Lane is Present
Rutgers University–New Brunswick researchers conducting a study at a high-traffic intersection in a Jersey Shore town have found that the installation of a bike lane along the road approaching the convergence reduced driving speeds.
Bicycle Lanes Have a Calming Effect on Traffic – Study
Computer vision techniques were used to detect and classify the speed and trajectory of over 9,000 motor-vehicles at an intersection that was part of a pilot demonstration in which a bicycle lane was temporarily implemented.
