This five-year, $549,037 National Science Foundation Project Grant supports research at the University of Michigan-Dearborn to develop a framework for studying driver-bicyclist interactions and improve bicycling safety. Funded through NSF's Engineering Directorate under the CFDA 47.041 program, this early career faculty award will address gaps in understanding how drivers and bicyclists interact on roadways. Key products include observational studies using naturalistic driving, cycling and drone data; laboratory experiments using virtual reality simulators; crash data analysis; and computational modeling. A wide range of human and infrastructure factors influencing surrogate safety measures will be examined. An open-source data repository of interactions will also be created. Outcomes aim to inform engineers, planners, and policymakers through data-driven insights on safer infrastructure, facilities, laws, education and technologies. Research integrates education activities to foster STEM interests and train future mobility safety experts.
