While a Bicycle RSA follows the same principles and eight-step process of a Road Safety Audit, this specialized type of RSA requires additional understanding of bicyclists’ safety in the transportation system. To assist agencies with implementing Bicycle RSAs, FHWA is offering FREE training and technical assistance. The training provides an overview of the basic principles of the safety of bicyclists and potential issues affecting them. It also provides information on how to perform an RSA and effectively evaluate the safety of bicyclists during the assessment. Technical assistance can be combined with a training workshop to help an agency perform their first Bicycle RSA.
