Abstract

Pedestrians and cyclists were counted in a situation where potentially properties of pavement, traffic signs, and side preference could have an impact on walking or cycling behavior. It was found that for a significant amount of pedestrians and cyclists alike it matters most to walk or cycle on the right side or that pedestrians move on the right side of cyclists. On the contrary the shares of pedestrians and cyclists reacting to signs as opposed to pavement showed an opposing trend: while more pedestrians walked on what looked like a pedestrian path, cyclists tended rather to follow traffic signs.
