Safety for mixed classes of traffic (car vs bike, yard worker vs freight train, sailboat vs tugboat, dump truck vs service truck, etc, etc.) has been studied since the industrial revolution brought about a world where it was common for a workplace to have big heavy things rolling around. Nobody wants to get hit and nobody wants to stop a money making operation because someone got hit. It's a shame that whenever cars/bikes/pedestrians are involved in the discussion it turns into your typical politicized yelling match.
Good on Oslo for using a data driven approach. Finding the political capital to do that sort of thing instead of just caving to whoever screams loudest seems rare these days.
