Low level cycle signals used as repeaters of the main traffic signals: Track trial report
Trials were conducted at the Transport Research Laboratory's (TRL's) test facility to establish how UK road users responded to low level cycle signals (LLCS). During the trials, drivers, motorcyclists, pedestrians, and bicyclists, 248 participants total, approached a typical four-arm junction intersection with standard traffic signals and LLCS on each arm. Questionnaires and video analysis were used to investigate: (1) did people understand the LLCS; (2) did people use the LLCS information; (3) what were attitudes towards the LLCS; (4) were people compliant with the LLCS; (5) did the LLCS affect movement when the signals turned green; and (6) did people feel the LLCS affected safety. Generally, participants felt that cyclists would benefit from LLCS.
