Project Evaluation
Hennepin Avenue Green Shared Lanes
Non-Motorized Transportation Pilot Program Evaluation
Several projects funded by the Non-Motorized Transportation Pilot Program (NTPP) used innovative treatments and designs as a means to improve the safety and experience for people riding bicycles. Minneapolis Public Works installed and evaluated 16 bicycle treatments and street design elements in 2011 and 2013. Projects underwent a thorough evaluation process including monitoring safety, operations, and user behavior, and also soliciting user feedback.
The report Evaluation of Bicycle Traffic Control Devices and Street Design Elements in Minneapolis, documents how the individual treatments and street design elements functioned in the context of each project location.
