| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
One of the reasons why the introduction of Light Rail Transit (LRT) does not advance in Japan is the change of road traffic environment. Especially in the auto-dependent city, the construction of LRT would induce new traffic congestion on the existing road. Therefore, this study focuses on the introduction of LRT and evaluated the change of road environment from the various point of view.
From the result of the field surveys in Utsunomiya and Ikebukuro, it was found that the exclusive lane of LRT generated road congestion at the certain level. Therefore, alternative ways should be required for the implementation of transitway, although it produced the modal shift and route change. Addition to this, public involvement using the Computer Graphics (CG) is effective for the consensus building, promotion, and the better understanding of environmentally friendly road.
