The Micro Individual Characteristics in Non-motorized Traffic Mixed of Bicycles and Mopeds

Abstract

In order to understand the overtaking behavior of, overtaking physical separation events between bicycles and mopeds was taken out. According to the analytical model of road bicycle passing events vehicle spatial features, the bicycle passing events into free events overtaking, adjacent events and blocked events, and based on the bicycle traffic flow velocity distribution characteristics and bicycle space distribution probability, an analytic model of 3 kinds of passing events was taken out. According to the passing events’ survey results on the physically separated non-motorized lanes of Shanghai, the model is calibrated and verified and the passing events’ overtaking number calculation results was according with the real situation. The model stream the results show that the parameters for the bicycle traffic, road bicycle, bicycle traffic flow in the running speed, traffic flow speed standard deviation and lane number significantly influence of 3 kinds of overtaking event number. This paper aims to present the micro individual characteristics in non-motorized traffic mixed of bicycles and mopeds.
