As for some Chinese cities as Chengdu which is mostly flat, electric bicycles take the place of manual bicycles to become the first choice of middle and short distance transport for lower-and-middle income groups due to their low cost, higher speed and carrying capacity. But more and more traffic problems resulted from a large magnitude of electric bicycles appeal to universal attention. Aimed at the absence of practical survey and research on electric bicycle traffic, this paper carried out practical traffic survey on electric bicycles in Chengdu, presents statistical analysis on the structure scale, traffic volume, violations and proportions, especially on the speed distribution. According to traffic practices of electric bicycles in Chengdu, this paper affirms their main body position, proposes type selection diversification, coordination with urban transit, standardization and strict management, and humanization in traffic organization. And eight strategies and five kinds of facility designs are pointed out.
