Nonmotorized design users

Like the motorized design vehicle, the design criteria of nonmotorized potential roundabout users (bicyclists, pedestrians, skaters, wheelchair users, strollers, etc.) should be considered when developing many of the geometric elements of a roundabout design. These users span a wide range of ages and abilities that can have a significant effect on the design of a facility.

The basic design dimensions for various design users are given in Exhibit 6-17 (5).
