- Abstract (Swedish)
- På järnvägsstationer passerar dagligen många människor som pendlar till och från arbete eller skola och ofta sker byter mellan olika transportmedel. Vid dessa byten behöver oskyddade trafikanter (fotgängare, cyklister och elsparkcyklister) ofta korsa en väg vid ett övergångsställe. Beroende på övergångsställets reglering uppstår olika beteenden och konflikter. Oväntade beteenden hos oskyddade trafikanter kan leda till konfliktsituationer. Denna rapport syftar till att bidra med kunskap om konflikter och beteenden hos oskyddade trafikanter nära järnvägsstationer. Trots att stationerna har olika utformning är det möjligt att dra generella slutsatser om vilka typer av beteenden och konflikter som uppstår.

Trots att stationerna har olika utformning är det möjligt att dra generella slutsatser om vilka typer av beteenden och konflikter som uppstår.
Videomaterial samlades in under 12 timmar vid varje station, från klockan 07:00 till 19:00, vilket möjliggjorde en detaljerad analys av beteenden och interaktioner. Studien visar att fotgängare som närmar sig järnvägsstationerna i Lund och Malmö oftare ignorerar annan trafik och går mot rött ljus, sannolikt på grund av högre stressnivåer. Flest konflikter inträffade i Lund, där övergångsstället är obevakat. I Helsingborg inträffade flest rödljuspassager i riktning mot stadens centrum. Bussförare visade generellt en högre tendens att inte ge företräde åt fotgängare, oavsett reglering.
Det var få cykel- och elsparkcykelpassager vid övergångsställena i Lund och Helsingborg. I Malmö, där övergångsstället ligger på ett cykelstråk, noterades fler konflikter mellan bussar och cyklister/elsparkcyklister. Elsparkcyklar framfördes ofta i höga hastigheter och med en aggressiv körstil. På grund av olika utformningar och förutsättningar är det svårt att generalisera beteenden och konflikter mellan järnvägsstationer. Olyckor och konflikter är slumpmässiga, och det kan finnas beteenden och konflikter som inte observerats i studien. (Less) - Abstract
- At railway stations many people pass daily commuting to and from work or school, often switching between different forms of transportation. During the change of transportation, the unprotected road users (pedestrians, cyclists, and e-scooters) might need to cross a road at a crosswalk. Depending on the form om regulation of the crosswalk different behaviors and conflicts occurs. Unexpected behaviors among unprotected road users can result in conflict situations. This report aims to contribute with knowledge about conflicts- and behavior of unprotected road users nearby railway stations. Despite the different layouts near the railway stations, it is possible to draw general conclusions about the types of behaviors and conflicts that arise.... (More)

This report aims to contribute with knowledge about conflicts- and behavior of unprotected road users nearby railway stations. Despite the different layouts near the railway stations, it is possible to draw general conclusions about the types of behaviors and conflicts that arise. Video footage captured 12 hours of activity at each station, from 07:00 to 19:00, allowing for a detailed analysis of behaviors and interactions. The study's results showed that pedestrians heading towards the train stations in Lund and Malmö displayed a higher tendency to ignore other traffic and cross against red lights, likely due to higher stress levels among pedestrians. Most conflicts occurred in Lund, which has an unregulated pedestrian crossing. In Helsingborg, the highest number of red-light crossings took place towards the city center. Bus drivers showed a higher tendency not to yield to pedestrians at crossings, regardless of regulation. There were generally very few crossings by cyclists and e-scooters at the pedestrian crossings in both Lund and Helsingborg. The studied crossing in Malmö is located on a cycling path, which results in more bicycle traffic. In Malmö most of the conflicts were between bused and cyclists / e-scooters. E-scooters are often operated at high speeds and with an aggressive riding style. Due to different layouts and conditions, it is difficult to generalize behaviors and conflicts across different train stations. Accidents and conflicts are random, and therefore potential behaviors and conflicts that were not observed may still exist. (Less)
