Research project bicycle traffic exposure

R+R is working together with the ZHAW and Pro Velo on the FEDRO research mandate MFZ_20_04E_03 Measurement of exposure to bicycle traffic until spring 2026. The aim of this research project is to evaluate existing methods for determining the mobility behavior of cyclists and to test a promising approach in a pilot study in practice. It involves determining the exposure, i.e., the distances traveled by cyclists, divided into the use of bicycles and e-bikes. Existing bicycle counts will also be integrated into the pilot study. Based on the findings, a proposal for the future calculation of exposure in bicycle traffic in Switzerland will be developed.

LZK-Project

Cost optimization for sustainability: With knowledge of life cycle costs, ASTRA can optimize the costs of building and maintaining national roads over their entire service life. This enables better, economically sustainable use of the financial resources available. Together with ASTRA, R+R is preparing documentation that describes the method for estimating and applying life cycle costs for the structural infrastructure from the operator's perspective. The focus is on the planning level and applicability by project managers and project teams.

N01.22 Motorway section Schönbühl – Kirchberg, Lindenrain rest area upgrade

The service building at the Lindenrain motorway rest area has been equipped with a new toilet module made of chrome steel; construction was completed at the end of 2023. The new toilet module offers better protection against vandalism, and it will be possible to continue its use in the event of a future replacement of the service building. R+R supported the Federal Road Office’s overall project manager in project planning and execution.
