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.
NJSPL – Safely Accommodating Micromobility Innovations
The Rutgers Micromobility 2.0 workshop, funded by the National Science Foundation in partnership with the Federal Highway Administration, provided tantalizing glimpses of a better future that seamlessly incorporates micromobility alongside pedestrians, cars, and transit.
Research: Powering Bikeshare in New York City
In this study, we investigate the difference between shared electric bicycles (e-bikes) and conventional shared bikes operated by Citi Bike in New York City.
The Biggest Barrier to a Vibrant Second-Hand EV Market? Price
“Taken together, these findings suggest that EV demand may still not be widespread for lower-income households in the U.S.,” Noland said. “Encouraging nationwide EV adoption will require broader uptake of new and used EVs from all income levels.”
Dutch hyperloop center aims to advance futuristic transport technology
“This is just another example of policy makers chasing a shiny object when basic investment in infrastructure is needed,” Robert Noland, distinguished professor at the Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy at Rutgers University, said in comments emailed to The Associated Press. “It costs too much to build,” he added.
NJSPL Report Release: The Transportation Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic had major impacts on transportation behavior in New Jersey and throughout the world. Our research sought to examine these shifts in behavior and whether any of them will be long-lasting.
New Research: The Traffic Calming Effect of Delineated Bicycle Lanes
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.
New Research on Used Electric Vehicle Concerns by Loh, Noland
To examine who is purchasing used electric vehicles (EVs) and what concerns they may have, the authors deployed a survey focused on owners of used EVs.
