Glen Koorey Principal Researcher, Traffic Engineering & Road Safety Opus Central Laboratories, Lower HuttIntroduction: Introduction What is a "Cycling" Project? Transfund Procedures Standard Benefits Other Benefits & ProblemsWhat is a "Cycling" Project?: What is a "Cycling" Project? Traditional: Cycleways (off-road) Cycle lanes (on-road) Intersection markings/signals Cycle Parking facilitiesWhat is a "Cycling" Project? cont'd: What is a "Cycling" Project? cont'd Revised: ANY Works that Benefit Cyclists Traffic Management / Calming Shoulder Widening Removal of Path Barriers "Pedestrian Improvement" Projects Regular Shoulder Clearing/SweepingTransfund NZ Funding: Transfund NZ Funding Funds Roading Projects "Benefit/Cost Ratio" > 4 State Highways fully funded Local Roads ~50% funded Also funds "Alternatives to Roading" (ATR) Projects Cycling included in Roading projectsTransfund Benefit Calculations: Transfund Benefit Calculations Calculated over 25 Years from Construction Future Year $$$ "discounted" to Present Value Standard Benefits detailed in Project Evaluation Manual (PEM) Hard to justify non-PEM BenefitsTravel Time (TT) Benefits: Travel Time (TT) Benefits Standard $Cost per hour of Travel Differs with Vehicle Type, Trip Purpose Transfer Trips from Motor Veh to Cycle Slower More Cost?
