Participants still needed for FHWA study on bicycle signs and signs
As we mentioned in an earlier blog post, the Turner-Fairbanks Highway Research Center is conducting a study on bicycle signals and signs. Researchers are still looking for bicyclists to help with the study.I recently participated in the study. Participants are shown a road with bike lanes at an intersection. You will be asked your opinion about several bicycle directional signs and signals. It's a painless process and you are paid for your time. The study will likely continue through November.
From FHWA:
