TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - The need for wider non-motor lanes: a study on the bicycle electrification process in China JO - Journal of transport and health A1 - Sun, Sudan A1 - Xia, Yingji SP - e101374 EP - e101374 VL - 25 IS - N2 - Electrified bicycles have gained worldwide popularity for their low-cost, energy-efficient, and environmental-friendly advantages, but the unpredicted steep-rising ownership also raises safety and regulation concerns. We investigated current safety situations and the unique cycling characteristics of electrified bicycles in China, and found that simply widening the non-motor lanes would increase the corresponding traffic capacity exponentially, as well as decrease potential traffic conflicts and promotes safely cycling behaviors.
