This study evaluates the efficiency of water inlets used by the Nebraska Department of Roads (NDOR) and includes a literature review of bicycle safety for inlets. The inlets studied include the 'Nebraska Flume' inlet, the slotted vane inlet, and the NDOR standard 72-inch curb opening inlet. The hydraulic performance of the inlets is presented in terms of inlet efficiency. A series of inlet efficiency curves document the performance of the different inlets at different slope configurations.
