Re: [sumo-user] Simulation of Bicycle Lanes in SUMO

Hi again,

Thank you for your prompt reply to my last email regarding the encoding of bicycle lanes.

I would like to ask a follow up question related to bicycles making left turns at signalized junctions.

  1. Is there a way for bicycles to use the pedestrian crossings for making the left turn at the signalized junction (please see blue line in the attached image)?
  2. Or do bicycles have to explicitly use the leftmost general-purpose lane (green line) to turn left?

I'm exploring both options and would love to know if there’s an existing method in SUMO for either approach.

Thank you for your time and support.

Kind regards,

Stavros Kontorinis

1. A curb can be modeled as a narrow lane that disallows all vehicle classes (netedit calls this a "green verge")

2. The busStop object in sumo always encodes the place where vehicles stop so it must be placed on the bus lane. It will be drawn off to the side and thus overlap the bike lane and sidewalk. If you need to adjust visuals, consider overlaying an image: https://sumo.dlr.de/docs/sumo-gui.html#showing_background_images

Dear SUMO user community,

 

I am currently trying to develop a simulation scenario encompassing bike lanes using SUMO 1.20. I am seeking your advice and expertise on two challenges I am currently encountering.

 

  1. The road layout that I would like to simulate is the following (from outermost to innermost):

·        Sidewalk: 2.20 m

·        Bicycle Lane: 2.00 m

·        Curb between Bicycle and Bus Lane: 0.70 m

·        Bus Lane: 3.50 m

·        General Vehicle Lane: 3.20 m

However, I am facing some challenges on how to encode and visualize the curb that is separating these two lanes (bicycle lane and bus lane) within SUMO.

 

  1. Additionally, I am trying to setup bus stops on the sidewalk in the presence of bike lanes. Specifically, my goal is to adjust the geometry of the network appropriately so that it matches with the one depicted in the attached image.

 

Any kind of advice for those two issues mentioned will be very helpful. Also, if there are any existing examples or documentation that could assist with those, I will be very grateful if you can point me to those resources.

 

Looking forward for your answers.

 

Kind regards,

Stavros Kontorinis
