For many, the bicycle facility design guides will tell you when to separate bicyclists from motorists, but not when to physically separate bicyclists from pedestrians. That’s where the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) and their consultant, Bolton & Menk, started. Through national research, workshops with blind and low-vision pedestrians, mobility device users, and a variety of bicycle users, and a MnDOT advisory group, we’ve assembled design guidance to assist practitioners and agencies.
