The augmented surveillance video was then used to analyse cyclists using various transport network infrastructure in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). Video cameras were deployed to four locations in the ACT, selected based on feedback made by cycling safety stakeholders, for a period of seven days to capture footage of cyclists using on-road infrastructure. This enabled the examination of the ways cyclists utilise transport network infrastructure and their interactions with traffic (including the highlighting of conflict events). The project demonstrated that short term video surveillance, coupled with machine learning algorithms, can be employed as useful tool to obtain a better understanding of cyclist behaviour at specific locations and identify ways to improve road safety. | | Conference Name | 2022 Australasian Road Safety Conference | | Conference Abbreviation | ARSC22 | | Conference Location | Christchurch, New Zealand | | Conference Date | 28-30 September 2022 | | Notes | The full report is available here: http://casr.adelaide.edu.au/publications/list/?id=2009 |
