项目摘要

The future of sustainable transport relies on an understanding of behaviour in relation to interactions within the transport environment and the choice of means of transport. Social behaviours within the public realm are influenced by the law and regulation, and by the design of the environment (such as the degree of mixing or segregation of different user types). The most likely theory to be useful to assist in researching behaviour within the legal and environmental context is Behaviourism (Watson, 1930), a theory of learning that assumes behaviours are acquired through conditioning, and which result from interactions with the environment.The research will hypothesise a model of the relations between design, regulation and behaviour which may be used to illuminate further understanding about appropriate future direction in design and regulation with the aim of developing more sustainable transport futures. The aim of the research is to investigate the behaviour of all road users navigating within or adjacent to walking and cycling infrastructure in the context of the regulations that shape its use.The aim is supported by the following provisional research questions:1. How does:a. behaviour influence infrastructure design and regulation?b. regulation influence infrastructure design and behaviour? c. infrastructure design influence regulation and behaviour? 2. What effect are new and emerging standards, guidance and regulation having on design?3. What law and regulation still constrains scheme designs?4. What are the attitude and approach of the police and legal profession to walking and cycle traffic?5. What processes can be adopted to trial innovative walking and cycle traffic schemes?6. What is the nature of public discourse relating to pedestrian and cycle traffic schemes?7. What can be learnt from the experience in other North European contexts?The provisional proposed research methods include the following:- Focus groups among homogeneous and heterogeneous groups of road users (RQ1)- Semi-structured interviews with different groups of road users (RQ1)- Key informant interviews with professionals in the UK, including designers, planners, the police, insurers and policy makers (RQs 2 to 5)- Collation and analysis of design guidance and documents relating to highway and traffic law and regulation (RQs 2 to 5)- Collation and analysis of media reporting on the public discourse relating to pedestrian and cycle traffic schemes (RQ 6)- Reference interviews to learn from other North European contexts (RQ 7)The research has significant potential to inform future highway regulation and infrastructure design, particularly for cycling and walking. By exploring the behaviours of road users as they respond to infrastructure design, regulation and other road users, the research may also be informative for future developments of the Highway Code, and driver and cycle training. Dissemination would take place through professional and other networks of which UWE is a member.ProgrammeYear 1: review literature, establish theoretical basis, develop the methodology, obtain ethics approvalYear 2: further develop and pilot the methodology, start data collectionYear 3: complete data collection, analyse the data, write up

可持续运输的未来依赖于对交通环境中相互作用和运输方式的相互作用的理解。公共领域内的社会行为受法律和法规的影响，以及环境的设计（例如不同用户类型的混合程度或隔离程度）。最可能的理论对于协助在法律和环境环境中研究行为有用是行为主义（Watson，1930年），该学习理论假设行为是通过调节来获得的，这是由于与环境的互动而导致的。研究将假设设计，调控和行为之间的关系模型可以用来进一步地在未来的方向发展，以实现对未来的指导进行进一步的发展，以进一步发展，该方向是在设计中的进一步发展。该研究的目的是调查所有道路使用者在塑造其使用的法规的背景下在步行和骑自行车基础设施内导航或毗邻的行为。目的得到以下临时研究问题的支持：1。如何：行为影响基础设施设计和法规？b。监管会影响基础设施设计和行为？ c。基础设施设计影响调节和行为？ 2。新的和新兴的标准，指导和法规对设计有什么影响？3。哪些法律和法规仍然限制计划设计？4。警察和法律职业对步行和骑车交通的态度和方法是什么？5。可以采用哪些过程来试用创新的步行和循环交通计划？6。与行人和循环交通方案有关的公共话语的性质是什么？7。 What can be learnt from the experience in other North European contexts?The provisional proposed research methods include the following:- Focus groups among homogeneous and heterogeneous groups of road users (RQ1)- Semi-structured interviews with different groups of road users (RQ1)- Key informant interviews with professionals in the UK, including designers, planners, the police, insurers and policy makers (RQs 2 to 5)- Collation and analysis of design guidance and documents与高速公路和交通法律和法规有关（RQS 2至5） - 媒体报道与行人和周期交通方案有关的公共讨论的整理和分析（RQ 6） - 参考访谈，以从其他北欧环境中学习（RQ 7），该研究具有重要的潜力，可以为未来的公路规范和基础设施设计提供巨大的潜力，特别是对骑行和步行。通过探索道路使用者对基础设施设计，法规和其他道路使用者的反应时，这项研究也可能为《高速公路法典》以及驾驶员和周期培训的未来发展提供信息。传播将通过UWE是成员的专业网络和其他网络进行。Programegmeyear1：审查文献，建立理论基础，开发方法论，获得伦理学批准2：进一步发展和试行方法，启动数据收集年3：完整数据收集，分析数据，写入数据，写入数据，写入数据，写入数据
