INTRODUCTION

WHY DEVELOP A MASTER PLAN?

The Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan is a critical tool for guiding city staff and the development community in building a balanced transportation system that is pedestrian and bicycle friendly and encourages residents to use these modes of transportation. The ultimate goal is a shift from driving single occupancy vehicles to more walking and bicycling as a normal part of daily life.

Purpose of the Plan This Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan Update 2018 establishes a long term vision for improving walking and bicycling in Santa Rosa by updating the previous plan adopted by the City Council in 2010. The Plan Update 2018 provides a strategy to develop a comprehensive bicycling and walking network to provide access to transit, schools, and downtown

alongside support facilities like bicycle parking and pedestrian amenities. These network improvements are paired with education, encouragement, enforcement, and evaluation programs. This document also identifies a plan to implement these projects and programs through prioritization and phasing to ensure implementation is manageable and fundable. This Plan Update 2018 represents a long-term, aspirational vision for walking and bicycling in Santa Rosa, and recognizes that limited funding and resources will require phased implementation of the proposed improvements over many years.

01 Introduction

Santa Rosa is a vibrant city committed to improving the quality of life for residents and visitors by providing walking and bicycling as convenient, comfortable, and healthy modes of transportation and recreation. The largest city in Sonoma County, Santa Rosa is a gateway to the Redwood Empire and to Sonoma Valley wine country, drawing visitors from across the country and around the world.

The Plan Update 2018 process provided opportunities for elected and appointed members of the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Boards, Commissions, and the public to participate in the development process of the Plan Update 2018 by evaluating, commenting, and suggesting ideas for walking and bicycling. Updates to the Plan are necessary as a progressive city is rarely static and the needs of a viable city are dynamic. Ideally, the Plan Update 2018 should be reviewed every two years to update maps, project lists, and priorities as facilities are completed and to keep pace with the development landscape.

BENEFITS OF BICYCLING AND WALKING Public Health

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

In A Portrait of Sonoma County (2014), the Sonoma County Department of Health Services found the Sheppard neighborhood near downtown Santa Rosa to have one of the lowest life expectancies in the county at 76.6 years – nearly a decade less than Central Bennett Valley in eastern Santa Rosa, where the average life expectancy is 85.7 years. This wide variation between Census tracts in the same city suggests neighborhood amenities and characteristics can have a striking impact on health. Central Bennett Valley is adjacent to hundreds of acres of state parkland and includes Strawberry Park, with nearly six acres of open space and sports facilities. Sheppard is between two state highways and has only one acre of developed park within the neighborhood—and while the park provides walking areas, it lacks sports facilities or other active recreation opportunities. Among the 99 Sonoma County Census tracts evaluated, 13 of the bottom 20 are located in Santa Rosa. Physical inactivity is now widely understood to play a significant role in the most common chronic diseases in the United States, including heart disease, stroke, and diabetes and each year approximately 280,000 adults in the United States die prematurely due to obesity-related illnesses. A 2004 study published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine by Frank et al.

reported that for each additional 60 minutes spent in a car daily, there is a six percent increase in the chances of being obese. Creating a physical environment that encourages bicycling and walking, and improves access to parks and active recreation opportunities in other neighborhoods, is a key strategy to fight obesity and inactivity and has been shown to have substantial impacts on health with a relatively small public investment. A Portrait of Sonoma County identifies interventions that support safe walking, bicycling, and recreation opportunities as effective strategies to address public health concerns in the County and Santa Rosa, including a focus on sidewalks, street lights, and access to parks.

Collision Reduction Conflicts between people walking, bicycling, and driving can result from poor behavior as well as insufficient or ineffective design. Encouraging development and redevelopment in which bicycling and walking are supported can enhance safety and comfort levels for all users. Designated bicycling and walking facilities, well designed crossings, and continued education and enforcement can reduce the risk of crashes and injuries.

Equity

Quality of Life Creating conditions where walking and bicycling are accepted and encouraged increases a communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s livability in ways that are difficult to measure but should not be overlooked. The design, land use patterns, and transportation systems that comprise the built environment have a profound impact on quality of life issues. The aesthetic quality of a community improves when visual and noise pollution caused by automobiles is reduced and when green space is reserved for facilities that allow people of all ages to recreate and travel in pleasant settings.

Active transportation programs and projects encourage more bicycling and walking, which leads to a better quality of life. This higher quality of life can attract more diverse and creative people, leading to higher economic growth for a city and region.1 Additionally, people who commute using active modes of transportation save money on annual automobile operating costs, and may see additional savings in health care costs. On a community-wide scale, bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure projects are generally far less expensive than automobile-related infrastructure.

01 Introduction

Bicycling and walking are inexpensive and broadly accessible forms of transportation. The average annual operating cost of a bicycle is $308, compared to $8,220 for the average car. Bicycling and walking are affordable means of transportation for low-income and disadvantaged residents. Access to active transportation provides added freedom and independence for youth and parents (who may otherwise be transporting their children) as well as for some people who cannot drive and those who have chosen not to drive.

Economy

Environmental Replacing driving trips with bicycling or walking trips has a measurable impact on reducing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere that contribute to climate change. Fewer vehicle trips and vehicle miles traveled translate into fewer pollutants released into the air, including carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and hydrocarbons. This not only reduces our contribution to climate change, but also improves the health and quality of life for residents who are vulnerable to asthma or other chronic respiratory diseases.

RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER DOCUMENTS Santa Rosa’s General Plan 2035 guides the physical development of the City and sets out a vision for Santa Rosa where:

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Complete streets provide safe access for pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists, and transit users of all ages and abilities. Neighborhood-scale retail and service uses, schools, and recreational facilities are connected by bicycle and pedestrian paths and transportation management programs and bicycle/ pedestrian improvements have reduced the number of single-occupancy cars on regional/arterial streets. The Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan Update 2018 helps the City realize this ambitious vision along with implementing goals, policies, and recommendations adopted through complementary City planning efforts such as the City’s Creek Master Plan, Climate Action Plan, Downtown Station Area Specific Plan, North Santa Rosa Specific Plan, Roseland/Sebastopol Avenue Specific Plan, and corridor plans for Mendocino Avenue, Santa Rosa Avenue, and Sebastopol Avenue. The Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan Update 2018 also helps the City do its part to achieve larger regional and state goals embraced in Sonoma County’s General Plan 2040, Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, Plan Bay Area 2040, Caltrans District 4 Bicycle Plan, and Toward an Active California: State Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan. This Plan Update 2018 will help Santa Rosa continue to meet the following goals.

Santa Rosa GENERAL PLAN 2035 • Provide attractive and safe streets for pedestrians and bicyclists • Develop a citywide system of designated bikeways that serves both experienced and casual bicyclists, and which maximizes bicycle use for commuting, recreation, and local transport • Develop a safe, convenient, and continuous network of pedestrian sidewalks and pathways that link neighborhoods with schools, parks, shopping areas, and employment centers • Reduce traffic volumes and speeds in neighborhoods CLIMATE ACTION PLAN • Reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25% below 1990 levels by 2020

SUMMARY

These investments and natural assets provide a foundation upon which the City can continue to build a high-quality citywide network for bicycling and walkingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;one that is accessible and comfortable for everyday use by residents and visitors of all ages and abilities.

01 Introduction

Santa Rosa is well poised to increase walking and bicycling for transportation. It has a mild climate most of the year, is relatively flat, and has a large network of existing sidewalks and growing network of on-street bikeways and offstreet shared- use paths. The City has installed bicycle parking in much of the downtown and transit services connect destinations in the region and beyond.

VISION & GOALS

OVERVIEW

All of the following goals, strategies, and policies support the larger citywide â&#x20AC;&#x153;Complete Streetsâ&#x20AC;? policy, which instructs staff to consider the needs of all modes of travel when developing any transportation facility. The goals, strategies, and policies are designed to guide the work of City staff and elected officials, partner agencies, and private developers to improve the livability, economic vitality, and non-motorized accessibility for residents and visitors throughout Santa Rosa. Reducing the amount of driving and automobile ownership is an overarching vision embodied in the Plan Update 2018.

The Plan Update 2018 is organized around a vision statement, three overarching goals tied to relevant performance measures, and a series of specific policies and actions. BICYCLE AND WALK FRIENDLY COMMUNITY DESIGNATION Santa Rosa is currently recognized as a Bicycle Friendly Community at the Bronze level by the League of American Bicyclists. This voluntary assessment and award program evaluates communities on ten criteria that they believe affect three key outcomes: ridership, crashes, and fatalities. These goals, policies, and actions are designed specifically to help elevate the city to a Silver or higher designation (Gold, Platinum, and Diamond) in the near future. Santa Rosa is not currently recognized as a Walk Friendly Community by the UNC Highway Safety Research Center. Taking the actions listed in this chapter can position the City for recognition through this national program as well.

02 Vision & goals

The goals of the Plan Update 2018 reflect the priorities expressed by the community throughout the public outreach phase of this Plan Update 2018. Discussions with City departments, best practices across the nation, and input from community stakeholders have shaped the proposed strategies and policies intended to help the City achieve these goals.

SANTA ROSA TODAY

This chapter describes the active transportation landscape in Santa Rosa, including a discussion of related themes that inform the recommended infrastructure projects, programs, and policies in the community.

03 Santa Rosa Today

Local Context DEMOGRAPHICS Santa Rosa is home to 173,165 residents, according to 2016 American Community Survey five-year estimates. This represents more than one third of the Sonoma County population of 497,776. When compared to the county population, Santa Rosa is slightly younger, with more residents under 10 years old and between 2034 years old, as shown in Figure 3-1.

LAND USE & MAJOR DESTINATIONS

TRANSIT ACCESS

This Plan Update 2018 will support Santa Rosaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Priority Development Areas (PDAs), the areas where the City plans to focus development in denser, mixed-use areas along transit routes shown in Figure 3-2. In conjunction with this development and transit service, high-quality bicycling and walking infrastructure within PDAs is intended to offer improved alternatives to driving. The existing and planned land uses in Santa Rosa will inform the recommendations in this Plan Update 2018 in an effort to maximize the number of people who will have access to walking and bicycling networks.

Santa Rosa is served by several transit providers and routes that offer connections to local and regional destinations. Santa Rosa CityBus and Sonoma County Transit both offer local bus service, and two Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit (SMART) stations have service to the Sonoma County Airport as well as Rohnert Park, Petaluma, Cotati, Novato, and San Rafael. Future stations are planned for Larkspur, Windsor, Healdsburg, and Cloverdale. Golden Gate Transit also offers bus service between Santa Rosa and San Francisco. See Figure 3-4 for a map of frequently used transit routes in the city.

Major destinations in Santa Rosa include schools, parks, healthcare facilities, shopping centers, city hall, county administration, and transit stations, mapped in Figure 3-3. These destinations are dispersed throughout the four quadrants of the city, and will require a comprehensive network of active transportation facilities to allow people to walk or bicycle instead of driving. Employment density is highest in the downtown area and in northern Santa Rosa along Highway 101 where Kaiser Permanente Medical Center and several federal and county offices are located.

Many bicyclists use transit for a portion of their trip, making bicycling access to transit stops and stations an important part of the active transportation network. Between 2013 and 2018, approximately 30,000 bicycles were brought on CityBus trips each year. From August 2017 to August 2018, SMART carried nearly 723,000 passengers and nearly 65,500 bicycles. This means approximately one in nine passengers brought a bicycle aboard.

EQUITY

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Equity issues are an important part of all planning processes, including development of this Plan Update 2018. Historically, communities with large populations of people of non-white races or ethnicities and low income households have received less investment from their local governments, including an uneven spatial distribution of facilities and safety improvements for people walking and bicycling. A review of citywide factors related to walking, bicycling, and equity identified neighborhoods that are disproportionately burdened by pollution or other negative impacts. These and other considerations informed the projects and prioritization recommended in this Plan Update 2018.

Income and Vehicle Access While Sonoma County has a higher median household income at $66,833 than the state of California at $63,783, Santa Rosa is slightly less affluent than both the county and state with a median household income of $62,705. Median income varies widely between cities in Sonoma County, as shown in Figure 3-5. The other two large cities— Rohnert Park and Petaluma—have median household incomes of $60,333 and $80,907 respectively. All median income figures are from the American Community Survey 2016 5-year estimates.

Figure 3-5: Median Household Income $90,000 $80,000 $70,000

INCOME

$60,000 $50,000 $40,000 $30,000 $20,000 $10,000 $0 Santa Rosa $62,705

Sonoma County $66,833

California $63,783

Petaluma $80,907

Rohnert Park $60,333

With such widespread vehicle access, few households rely on walking or bicycling out of necessity. To create significant shifts in trips away from driving, walking and bicycling must be convenient and comfortable options to attract more people.

03 Santa Rosa Today

Just two percent of households in Santa Rosa lack access to a vehicle, as shown in Figure 3-6. Nearly 80% of households have access to two or more vehicles. These rates are nearly identical to countywide vehicle access.

Communities of Concern

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

In the City of Santa Rosa, the three Communities of Concern include the Roseland neighborhood southwest of the Highway 101 and SR 12 interchange, an area north of College Avenue and west of Highway 101, and the downtown area east of Highway 101 between College Avenue and Sonoma Avenue. See Figure 3-7 for a map of Communities of Concern. The walking and bicycling improvements recommended in this Plan Update 2018 will consider the benefits and burdens of those projects on these communities.

As part of the San Francisco Bay Area’s long-range integrated transportation and land use/housing strategy, Plan Bay Area, the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) analyzed the distribution of benefits and burdens that would result from implementation of the region’s preferred planning scenario. To conduct this analysis, ABAG and MTC, along with extensive input from an Equity Working Group and other stakeholders, identified “Communities of Concern” throughout the Bay Area region that meet at least four thresholds listed in Table 3-1.

CalEnviroScreen 03 Santa Rosa Today

The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment developed the CalEnviroScreen tool to help identify communities that are disproportionately burdened by multiple sources of pollution. It combines pollution data (such as ozone concentrations and drinking water contaminants) with population indicators (such as birth weight and educational attainment). This is also a tool used in Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Active Transportation Program grant application scoring. Communities that score in the most burdened 25% of the state are considered to be disadvantaged and receive a small advantage in the competitive funding process. Areas in Santa Rosa that meet this threshold are mapped in Figure 3-8.

BICYCLING AND WALKING TODAY

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Existing Bicycle Network

CLASS I SHARED USE PATHS

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) designates four classes of bicycle facilities: Class I shared use paths, Class II bicycle lanes, Class III bicycle routes, and Class IV separated bikeways. The City’s current bicycle network has approximately 115 miles of bikeways, and has grown by 40% since the last Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan Update 2018 in 2010 (see Table 3-2). Descriptions of each bikeway class are included in the following section, and bikeways are mapped in Figure 3-9 through Figure 3-14 to show where they currently exist in Santa Rosa.

Class I shared use paths are paved trails completely separated from the street. They allow two-way travel by people bicycling and walking, and are often considered the most comfortable facilities for children and inexperienced riders as there are few potential conflicts between people bicycling and people driving.

CLASS II BICYCLE LANES

Class IV Separated Bikeways Total

*Several miles of Class III bicycle routes were upgraded to Class II bicycle lanes

There are currently 30.9 miles of Class I shared use paths in Santa Rosa.

12.8*

Class II bicycle lanes are striped preferential lanes on the roadway for one-way bicycle travel. Some bicycle lanes include a striped buffer on one or both sides to increase separation from the traffic lane or from parked cars, where people may open doors into the bicycle lane. Buffered Class II bicycle lanes were recently installed on 3rd Street from Morgan Street to B Street, where 3rd Street passes underneath Santa Rosa Plaza. There are currently 67.1 miles of Class II bicycle lanes and 0.2 miles of buffered bicycle lanes in Santa Rosa.

CLASS III BICYCLE ROUTES Class I Shared Use Path

03 Santa Rosa Today

Class III bicycle routes are signed routes where people bicycling share a travel lane with people driving. Because they are shared facilities, bicycle routes are only appropriate on quiet, low-speed streets with relatively low traffic volumes. Some Class III bicycle routes include shared lane markings or “sharrows” that recommend proper bicycle positioning in the center of the travel lane and alert drivers that bicyclists may be present. Others include more robust traffic calming features to promote bicyclist comfort and are known as “bicycle boulevards.” The Santa Rosa Fire Department should be included in discussions about new or altered features on bicycle boulevards, to ensure access for emergency responders is maintained.

Class II Bicycle Lanes

There are currently 12.8 miles of Class III bicycle routes in Santa Rosa and 1.6 miles of bicycle boulevards on Jennings Avenue and Humboldt Street. CLASS IV SEPARATED BIKEWAYS Class IV separated bikeways are onstreet bicycle facilities that are physically separated from motor vehicle traffic by a vertical element or barrier, such as a curb, bollards, or vehicle parking aisle. They can allow for one- or two-way travel on one or both sides of the roadway.

Class III Bicycle Lanes

Class IV Separated Bikeways

Existing Support Facilities

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Support facilities are also needed to attract and maintain bicyclists by considering their needs throughout their journey. People are less likely to ride their bicycles to destinations without secure bicycle parking. Other support facilities include showers or lockers at destinations, repair stations with basic tools, and wayfinding or guide signs to help bicyclists navigate along the way. A complete bicycle network must include secure bicycle parking at each end of every trip. Bicycle parking can generally be divided into two categories: short-term bicycle racks and long-term higher-security parking. The City has installed short-term bicycle parking throughout downtown on

Long-term bicycle parking is available in the form of on-demand bike lockers. BikeLink, a private vendor, has installed 80 lockers at 12 locations across the city listed in Table 3-3, including seven locations on the Santa Rosa Junior College campus. To use the lockers, bicyclists purchase a BikeLink card online or at one of three vendors in the city. Once activated, the card can be loaded with funds to purchase time at 3-5 cents per hour. BikeLink has also been testing the use of Clipper Cards for lockers, which would integrate rentals with the existing transit fare card.

sidewalks, plazas, and in parking garages. These racks have been funded primarily through the Transportation Fund for Clean Air, provided by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District. Currently, 62 bicycle racks are installed through downtown Santa Rosa, as shown in Figure 3-15.

Existing Pedestrian Network

FUNDING COMMITMENTS In the 2017-2018 Capital Improvement Program (CIP), Traffic Safety and Transportation projects focus on street rehabilitation, traffic safety, bicycle and pedestrian safety, and street lighting. Projects related to improving circulation and safety for all users were funded at almost $3 million, representing approximately 24% of the total budget request for transportation projects. These projects include traffic signal improvements, sidewalk installations, pedestrian signal installations, traffic calming, and bikeway improvements.

The City has also committed $1.2 million from the General Fund in an ongoing effort to implement facility improvements for people with disabilities, in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). These improvements often include sidewalk gap closures, pavement repairs, or curb ramps.

03 Santa Rosa Today

There are many features that contribute to a convenient and comfortable walking environment. Significant investments and commitments to future improvements have been made that continue to enhance the pedestrian experience in Santa Rosa.

$1,500,000 has been committed to date for LED streetlight replacements, which last longer and require less maintenance than alternatives. This will allow the city to improve and expand lighting, creating a more comfortable walking environment.

SIDEWALKS Sidewalks form the backbone of the pedestrian transportation network. Most streets in the City have sidewalks or pathways on at least one side. Within the City limits, sidewalk maintenance is the responsibility of the property owner. Some parts of the City are not required to provide sidewalks. These include rural hillside developments, such as portions of the Fountaingrove area, or areas previously built out while under County jurisdiction and subsequently annexed into the City, such as the Castlerock subdivision and Roseland community.

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

HIGH VISIBILITY CROSSWALKS Crosswalks are a legal extension of the sidewalk and provide guidance for pedestrians who are crossing roadways by defining and delineating their path of travel. Crosswalks are not required to be marked, however marked crosswalks alert drivers of a pedestrian crossing point and increase yielding to pedestrians. Markings can be standard parallel lines or the “continental” high visibility pattern shown in the image above, which enhances visibility of the crossing and is becoming best practice. Crosswalks in school zones are yellow.

The City conducted a review of uncontrolled crossings in 2014, which evaluated 185 crossing locations. The study included a robust data collection effort, and made detailed recommendations for each location to improve accessibility and comfort, including additional pavement markings for visibility, beacons or traffic controls, and visibility improvements such as parking removal or vegetation maintenance. The City was recently awarded a Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) grant to implement the recommended improvements at approximately 100 of the uncontrolled crossings. Unfunded locations will be carried forward in this Bicycle & Pedestrian Master Plan Update 2018.

PEDESTRIAN HYBRID BEACONS

DRIVERS

Slow Down (Pedestrian has activated the push button)

Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons or RRFBs increase visibility of uncontrolled or midblock crosswalks with bright LED lights activated by a pedestrian push button. Santa Rosa has multiple RRFBs throughout the City, including at 3rd Street and Courthouse Square.

RECTANGULAR RAPID FLASHING BEACONS

Santa Rosa Today

Pedestrian hybrid beacons are used to enforce motorist yielding to pedestrians at uncontrolled crosswalk locations. The beacon, when activated by a person wishing to cross, flashes yellow before displaying a solid red signal to motorists, requiring them to stop. Pedestrians are then shown a WALK signal, and may cross the road. When the WALK phase is complete, the beacon flashes yellow before returning to a dark inactive state. Operation of the beacon is illustrated in the graphic below.

Santa Rosa recently installed a hybrid beacon at this crossing on Montgomery Drive at Spring Lake Village.

Barriers to Active Transportation

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Two freeways cross the City, dividing it into four quadrants. Highway 101 runs north-south through Santa Rosa, and State Route (SR) 12 runs eastwest. The SMART rail line also runs north-south through the City, west of Highway 101. These transportation features create challenges for people walking and bicycling in some places, as crossings are limited.

Bicycle and Pedestrian Trips The most consistent bicycling and walking data comes from American Community Survey 5-year estimates, which record the mode of transportation people use to commute to work. Over the most recent five years of available data, shown in Table 3-4, bicycling in Santa Rosa has remained steady just above one percent while walking has decreased slightly from 3.3% to 2.6%.

In addition to reviewing data on mode of transportation to work, the City of Santa Rosa also conducts bicycle and pedestrian counts at locations around the city. In 2018, counts conducted on the SMART Trail at 9th Street and at Sebastopol Road reported an average of 576 pedestrians and 53 bicyclists using the trail each day. Active transportation use was highest on weekdays, and peaked from approximately 7 – 10 a.m. and from 3 – 6 p.m., suggesting residents may be using the path to commute to work. By comparison, counts conducted in 2016 on the nearby Joe Rodota Trail showed a daily average of 265 people bicycling along that trail. These counts showed consistent use during both weekdays and weekends, with weekend days showing peak hours similar to the SMART trail. This suggests the Joe Rodota Trail is used for both commuting to work and for weekend recreational use.

Between 2009 and 2014, hourly counts of people walking and bicycling in Santa Rosa were also gathered by multiple agencies, including the Sonoma County Transportation Authority (SCTA), and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC). From these hourly counts, average daily walking and bicycling trips were extrapolated and compared to identify cross streets that currently have the most people walking and bicycling in the City.

Locations with high bicycling activity are listed in Table 3-5 and locations with high walking activity are listed in Table 3-6. Four locations are popular for both bicycling and walking:

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Programs

SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL

Programs help support walking and bicycling by sharing information, promoting comfort, and creating a vibrant active transportation culture. Communities that have the highest rates of walking and bicycling consistently use a “5Es” approach, with four types of programs complementing Engineering improvements:

The City participates in the Sonoma County Safe Routes to School (SRTS) program, led by the Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition with support from Sonoma County Department of Health Services and SCTA. Many schools participate in program activities, including in-school bicycling and walking safety education, student and family bicycle rodeos, and Walk and Bike to School Days. The SRTS program also includes evaluation components to measure changes in walking and bicycling rates along with program activity effectiveness. Over the last four years, the City and its partners have conducted walking audits or other program activities at 20 elementary and middle schools in Santa Rosa. During the 2017-2018 school year, all five public high schools were reviewed for bicycle and pedestrian access. The City has implemented several pedestrian and bicycle enhancements at the various schools based on the results of these assessments.

Education Providing safety education for people walking, riding bicycles, and driving, as well as education about the environmental and health benefits of active transportation and the facilities available in the community Encouragement Promoting bicycling and walking as fun and efficient modes of transportation and recreation Enforcement Enforcing laws and good behavior for people walking, bicycling, and driving Evaluation Monitoring the success of the effort through counts, surveys, and review of relevant data The City and its partners have been carrying out the following programs in recent years to support bicycling and walking.

EMERGENCY RIDE HOME

Bike to Work Day, celebrated in May each year, is a day when people are encouraged to try bicycling to work. Coordinated by the Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition, civic organizations and local business partners host “energizer stations” along popular commute routes to offer snacks and other giveaways to people who participate. In 2017, nearly 1,000 people visited 12 energizer stations in Santa Rosa as part of Bike to Work Day.

The SCTA recently launched a program offering employees anywhere in the county a free ride home to encourage active transportation commuting in addition to carpooling and transit. If a family emergency arises, the carpool driver must leave unexpectedly, or your bike is stolen, for example, you can take a taxi or app-based rideshare home and be reimbursed up to $125.

03 Santa Rosa Today

BIKE TO WORK DAY

TARGETED ENFORCEMENT FREE RIDE TRIP REDUCTION INCENTIVE PROGRAM The City sponsors a “Free Ride – Trip Reduction Incentive Program” for employers in the city to encourage commute alternatives such as bicycling, walking, transit, and carpooling. Incentives include discounted transit passes and a chance to win a $50 gift card. Approximately 1,532 people are signed up for the program. To date, more than 263,536 one-way bicycle commute trips and more than 74,150 one-way walking commute trips have been recorded. There is also a guaranteed ride home component, where a registered participant may get a free taxi ride home in an emergency. This reduces the need to commute by car because a person is worried they might need to pick up a sick child from school or for some other emergency.

The Santa Rosa Police Department conducts targeted enforcement to address behaviors that contribute to bicycle or pedestrian crashes on an ongoing basis, as funding and resources are available. The Department recently secured a grant from the Office of Traffic Safety to fund education and enforcement activities, including: • Traffic safety education presentations on bicycle and pedestrian safety • Additional patrols at intersections with increased incidents of bicycle or pedestrian collisions • Speed limit, red light, and stop sign enforcement Similar targeted enforcement efforts in the past have focused on reducing illegal turns by drivers, failures to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks, and bicyclist helmet laws.

These incentives are part of the City’s Transportation Demand Management (TDM) program and administered by the Santa Rosa Transit Division through a Transportation Fund for Clean Air grant.

Collisions

City of Santa Rosa â&#x20AC;˘ BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

A total of 9,706 collisions were reported in Santa Rosa during the study period, 6.5% of which involved people bicycling and 5.9% of which involved people walking.

Data on bicycle- and pedestrianrelated collisions can provide insight into locations or roadway features that tend to have higher collision rates, as well as behaviors and other factors that contribute to collisions. These insights will inform the recommendations in this Plan Update 2018 to address challenges facing people bicycling and walking.

BICYCLE-RELATED COLLISIONS During the study period, 628 collisions in Santa Rosa involved a person riding a bicycle. Only four of these were fatal, but nearly 600 resulted in an injury. See Table 3-7 and Figure 3-17.

Collision data involving people walking and bicycling was acquired from the Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), where the California Highway Patrol and local law enforcement agencies upload collision reports. Ten years of data were evaluated, from September 1, 2007 through August 31, 2017.

Overall during the study period, fewer than one percent of bicycle collisions were fatal. Over seven percent resulted in severe injury, and approximately five percent did not result in any injury. Figure 3-16 shows collision severity for the study period.

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

As shown in Figure 3-18, no bicyclists under 10 years old were involved in collisions during the study period. Bicyclists between 10 and 54 years old are overrepresented among collision victims compared to the general population, with 10-19 showing the largest discrepancy.

The majority of the bicycle-involved collisions during the study period were attributed to three violations that lend insight into behaviors that contribute to collisions:

Nearly 80% of collisions occurred during daylight hours, and an additional 15% occurred at night where street lights were present and functioning.

• Wrong side of the road (24%)

Examining only those bicycle collisions that occurred within 500 feet of a school, 74 of 146 collisions occurred during school hours between 7 am and 4 pm, and 19 of those school-hour collisions involved bicyclists under 18 years old. Figure 3-18: Collisions by Bicyclist Age Range

• Improper turning (18%) When evaluating the locations where bicycle-involved collisions are more likely to occur, six locations approach an average of one collision every two years, as shown in Table 3-8.

High-Injury Network

City of Santa Rosa â&#x20AC;˘ BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

To identify street segments in the City where serious collisions are occurring at a greater frequency, a high-injury network was developed based on the number and proximity of collisions that resulted either in death or severe injury to a person bicycling or walking. The Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s street network was evaluated for segments where three or more fatal or severe injury collisions occurred that met a threshold for concentration. For bicycle-involved collisions, this threshold was set at 0.5 fatal or severe-injury collisions per 1,000 feet. For pedestrian-involved collisions, the threshold is one fatal or severeinjury collision per 1,000 feet. These high-injury network segments are listed in Table 3-11 and Table 3-12, and mapped in Figure 3-22.

USER EXPERIENCE & PERCEIVED COMFORT

03 Santa Rosa Today

Traffic stress is the perceived sense of danger associated with riding in or adjacent to vehicle traffic. Studies have shown that traffic stress is one of the greatest deterrents to bicycling. The less stressful—and therefore more comfortable—a bicycle facility is, the wider its appeal to a broader segment of the population. A bicycle network will attract a large portion of the population if it is designed to reduce stress associated with potential motor vehicle conflicts and if it connects people bicycling with where they want to go. Bikeways are considered low stress if they involve very little traffic interaction by nature of the roadway’s vehicle speeds and volumes (e.g., a shared, low-traffic neighborhood street) or if greater degrees of physical separation are placed between the bikeway and traffic lane on roadways with higher traffic volumes and speeds (e.g., a separated bikeway on a major street).

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Types of Bicyclists

Bicycle Level of Traffic Stress

Research indicates that the majority of people in the United States (56-73%) would bicycle if dedicated bicycle facilities were provided. However, only a small percentage of Americans (1-3%) are willing to ride if no facilities are provided.1 This research into how people perceive bicycling as a transportation choice has indicated that most people fall into one of four categories, illustrated below.

To better meet the needs of the “Interested, But Concerned” cyclist, planners developed the Bicycle Level of Traffic Stress (Bicycle LTS) analysis as an objective, data-driven evaluation model to help identify streets with high levels of traffic stress. The analysis uses roadway network data (i.e. posted speed limit, street width, number of travel lanes, intersection conditions, presence and character of bikeway facilities, and land use context) to determine bicyclist comfort level.

1-3%

STRONG & FEARLESS

Very comfortable and willing to ride on streets without designated facilities

5-10%

ENTHUSIASTIC & CONFIDENT

Very comfortable, but prefer streets with designated bike lanes

50-60%

INTERESTED, BUT CONCERNED

Comfortable on trails and streets with buffered or separated bike lanes and interested in biking more

30% NOT CURRENTLY INTERESTED

Physically unable or very uncomfortable even on streets with separated bike lanes

1 Roger Geller, City of Portland Bureau of Transportation. Four Types of Cyclists. http://www.portlandonline.com/ transportation/ index.cfm?&a=237507. 2009; 2 Dill, J., McNeil, N. Four Types of Cyclists? Testing a Typology to Better Understand Bicycling Behavior and Potential. 2012.

The combination of these criteria creates four levels of traffic stress for the existing roadway network. The lower the number, the lower the stress and the higher the level of comfort for people on bicycles. LTS 1 & 2 roads are typically the roadways that appeal to the “Interested, but Concerned” cyclists.

LEVEL 1: ALL AGES AND ABILITIES Level 1 includes off-street shared use paths and some very low-stress roadways suitable for all ages and abilities. Level 1 makes up six percent of the entire network in Santa Rosa. The Joe Rodota Trail is an example of a Level 1 facility.

LEVEL 2: AVERAGE ADULT

Level 2 makes up 68% of the entire network in Santa Rosa. Humboldt Street from College Ave to Lewis Road is an example of a Level 2 street.

03 Santa Rosa Today

Level 2 includes roadways that are comfortable enough that the mainstream adult population would ride a bicycle on them.

LEVEL 3: CONFIDENT ADULT Level 3 includes arterial roadways with bicycle facilities that are probably only comfortable for an experienced, confident bicyclist. Level 3 makes up 11% of the entire roadway network in Santa Rosa and 43% of arterial streets. Yulupa Avenue from Creekside Road to Montgomery Drive is an example of a Level 3 street. Note that having standard Class II bicycle lanes does not outweigh other factors such as traffic volume and speeds for this road to be considered low-stress.

LEVEL 4: FEARLESS ADULT Level 4 includes arterial roadways with no bicycle facilities ridden only by strong or fearless bicyclists. Level 4 makes up 15% of the entire roadway network and 57% of arterial streets. Santa Rosa Avenue from Maple Ave to W Third Street is an example of a Level 4 street

RESULTS

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

The level of traffic stress scores shown in Figure 3-24 illustrate the low stress connections and gaps throughout Santa Rosa. The Bicycle LTS results map approximates the user experience for the majority of Santa Rosa residents, however people may have differing opinions of traffic stress depending on their own experiences. While a majority of Santa Rosa’s entire network scored a Level 1 and 2 (74% total), these facilities are minor local roads or off-street paths typically surrounded by higher stress arterials where most average adults would not feel comfortable riding. When only arterial roadways are examined, which serve as the direct connections to most destinations, nearly 57% are Level 4. See Figure 3-23. Multi-use trails offer a low stress route that helps cut across these barriers, however the majority of residents may not feel comfortable bicycling outside their immediate neighborhood using local streets. This means that getting from residential areas to major destinations may not be possible given most people’s tolerance for mixing with traffic—even on streets that have bicycle lanes.

03 Santa Rosa Today

04 OUTREACH

This chapter presents an overview of the format and approach for each outreach opportunity, along with a summary of feedback received.

04 Outreach

Engaging the Santa Rosa community has been a priority throughout the Plan Update 2018 process. A variety of outreach opportunities were used to seek input from diverse Santa Rosa residents and community members. The plan development process also included extensive coordination with partner agencies and other City departments to ensure this Plan Update 2018 meets community needs, advances initiatives of local and regional partners, and includes projects and programs that can feasibly be implemented. Ongoing outreach ensured a continuous feedback loop that informed the final project list and Plan Update 2018. Specific events and opportunities included:

COMMUNITY MEETINGS

CITY BOARD, COMMISSION AND COUNCIL MEETINGS

ONLINE

• Public Open Houses

• Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board

• Interactive Mapping Tool

• Pop Up Events • Stakeholder Interviews

• Waterways Advisory Committee • Community Advisory Board

• Community Survey • City Website and Social Media • City Newsletter

• Planning Commission • City Council

ONLINE SURVEY

A community survey was developed to gather input on walking and bicycling challenges, preferences, and opportunities throughout Santa Rosa. The survey was made available online in both Spanish and English from February through June 2018, and advertised at all outreach events, through City newsletter and email notifications, and distributed by community groups. Participation in the survey was also encouraged by awarding a gift card to a randomly selected respondent. More than 1,300 people responded to the survey.

City of Santa Rosa โ ข BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

A summary of responses is provided below. When asked about their comfort on a variety of bikeways, respondents expressed a clear preference for facilities that separate bicyclists from motorists. Shared use paths and separated bikeways were ranked most comfortable, while bicycle routes and streets with no bicycle facility were Bellevue Ave ranked least comfortable. See Figure 4-1.

Survey respondents stated a clear desire for walking and bicycling improvements in the community. Nearly 90 percent strongly or somewhat agreed they would like to travel by bicycle more than they currently do, and nearly 95 percent strongly or somewhat agreed they would like to walk more. Health or recreation was the most common purpose for both bicycling and walking trips, with more than 40 percent of respondents bicycling and over 80 percent walking for health once a week or more. Survey respondents overwhelmingly indicated that increased separation between facilities for different modes of transportation would encourage them to walk or bicycle more often. This separation, mentioned in 238 comments, includes buffering bicycle or pedestrian facilities from motor vehicle traffic, grade separation for challenging crossings, and providing dedicated Regional Park space for both bicyclists and for pedestrians on some highly used paths.

No Facility

An improved sidewalk network was mentioned in responses 118 times, including both filling missing

sidewalk segments and providing wide sidewalks with ample room for passing and walking abreast. Finally, maintenance was mentioned in 111 comments. Specific needs reported included sweeping and debris removal, trimming vegetation, and resurfacing or repairing paved facilities to provide a smooth, level surface.

04 Outreach

One common feature survey respondents said would improve their walking experience was enhanced crosswalks (mentioned in 102 responses). Of these, more than half expressed a desire for inpavement flashing lights at crosswalks. Other crossing improvements mentioned included RRFBs or pedestrian hybrid beacons, curb extensions, refuge islands, high visibility markings, and beacons or stop controls on busy streets.

Topics mentioned in 40 or more survey comments are listed in Table 4-1 with the number of responses they appeared in.

ONLINE INTERACTIVE MAPPING TOOL

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

An interactive mapping tool was posted on the City’s website and used throughout development of this Plan Update 2018 to gather input and feedback from the community directly on a map of the city. In early project phases from February through June 2018, community members were encouraged to draw routes or place pins on the map and add comments to identify desired walking or bicycling improvements, challenging locations, and other information about the walking and bicycling environment. Nearly 800 comments were received during this phase. This input informed the recommended bicycling and walking network improvements.

In the second phase of development from July through September 2018, the draft recommended walking and bicycling networks were displayed on the map and community members were invited to “like” or “dislike” projects to show their preferences, in addition to adding comments on specific projects and seeing the feedback left by others. More than 900 votes on projects were recorded along with approximately 420 comments on the draft recommendations. This input helped prioritize projects and refine the networks.

CITY WEBSITE AND SOCIAL MEDIA

Website The City created a section on their website for this Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan Update 2018. All online communications and project flyers pointed to this website, where community members were able to learn about the planning process, see upcoming outreach events, and download draft maps and other deliverables at key milestones.

Social Media The City has nearly 16,000 followers on Facebook and over 34,500 subscribers on Nextdoor. Throughout the Plan Update 2018 process, posts on these platforms notified residents of upcoming events, draft documents available for review, online engagement tools, and other project milestones.

Newsletter In addition to their social media presence, the City sent email newsletters to more than 11,000 subscribers. The Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Transportation and Public Works Out in the Field newsletter has more than 9,200 subscribers, and the email list for this Plan Update 2018 has more than 1,800. These newsletters were used to announce open houses and other events, encourage participation, and share updates about the project.

04 Outreach

For all community outreach opportunities, including the online survey and interactive mapping tool, the City leveraged their existing website, social media accounts, and newsletter mailing list to share information about the Plan Update 2018 process and encourage Santa Rosa residents to engage with the project team.

Promotional Material An information card was also created in both English and Spanish with the project website and Community Open Houses listed. The cards were available at all outreach events and placed at various businesses, community centers, and libraries throughout the City. The Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition inserted 650 cards into participant goodie bags on Bike to Work Day (May 18, 2018) and members of the Community Advisory Board hand-delivered 350 cards to residents near the Rincon Valley Library to encourage attendance at the second Open House held there.

PUBLIC OPEN HOUSES

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Three open houses were held at key milestones during the planning process to gather input from the community and refine the Plan Update 2018.

Open House 1 The first open house was held April 18, 2018, at Montgomery High School. Stations at the open house shared findings from Chapter 2 including the existing walking and bicycling networks and programs, a review of collision locations, and the results of the Level of Traffic Stress analysis. A brief presentation described the planning process and an update on progress made since the 2010 Plan was adopted. Input from approximately 20 residents who attended the open house informed the recommended projects and programs in this Plan Update 2018. Key themes included: • Improve crossings along major roads and across Highway 101 • Close gaps in the sidewalk network • Build more shared use paths with improved connections to destinations and on-street networks

Open House 2 Midway through the project, a second open house was held on July 25, 2018 at Rincon Valley Library. The open house was attended by nearly 90 residents, who reviewed draft network maps for bicycling and walking improvements in Santa Rosa. Attendees provided feedback on the draft networks, which helped refine and prioritize the project list.

Open House 3 A complete draft of this Plan Update 2018 was presented at a third open house on November 8, 2018. More than 50 attendees had the opportunity to revisit maps and other results from early project phases while also reviewing the evaluation strategy and resulting project implementation categories. Attendees provided feedback on the public draft materials which helped refine this Plan Update 2018.

STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS

POP-UP EVENTS

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

The project team also participated in six pop-up events in Santa Rosa, which provided opportunities for additional input into the Plan Update 2018 and helped raise awareness of the update process. At each event, the project team gathered input about challenges and opportunities to improve walking and bicycling in Santa Rosa. This feedback informed documentation of existing networks along with development of draft network recommendations. The six events are listed below with feedback themes. WELCOME ROSELAND (JANUARY 20, 2018)

A pop up event at the Welcome Roseland event

• Pedestrian priorities include shade, increased lighting, and beacons at uncontrolled crossings • Bicycling priorities include shared use paths, buffered bicycle lanes, and separated bikeways HIGHWAY 101 OVERCROSSING PUBLIC MEETING (MARCH 29, 2018) • Need for bicycle connections and secure bicycle parking at Santa Rosa Junior College • Desire for SMART path to connect further north toward the airport • Split opinions on possible alternatives presented for the Highway 101 Overcrossing

CITY BOARD, COMMISSION, AND COUNCIL MEETINGS Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Draft deliverables were presented to the City’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board (BPAB) at seven of their meetings during development of this Plan Update 2018. Meeting dates and presentation topics are outlined below.

In addition to these seven meetings, a survey was sent to BPAB members in September 2018 to gather feedback on draft prioritization criteria. BPAB feedback guided development of this Plan Update 2018 by providing both strategic direction and specific input throughout the planning process.

• February 15, 2018: Draft Bicycle Friendly Community Assessment • March 15, 2018: Draft Existing Conditions and Level of Traffic Stress • April 19, 2018: Draft Bicycle and Pedestrian Facility Guidelines • July 19, 2018: Draft Network Recommendations • August 16, 2018: Draft Program and Policy Recommendations • November 15, 2018: Administrative Draft Plan Update 2018 • January 17, 2019: Final Draft Plan Update 2018

Members of the Santa Rosa BPAB review draft recommendations and share feedback

Community Advisory Board

Because Santa Rosa has a robust network of trails along the many creeks in the City, the Waterways Advisory Committee (WAC) was a key partner in developing recommendations to improve and expand the trail network. Staff presented to the WAC three times during the Plan Update 2018 process, in June, August, and November 2018.

The project team presented to the Community Advisory Board on March 28, 2018 to share information about the Plan Update 2018 and encourage them to participate in upcoming public outreach activities.

• June 18, 2018: Introduced the Project • August 23, 2018: Draft Network Recommendations »» Identified additional recommendations from the Citywide Creeks Master Plan to be incorporated »» Closing sidewalk gaps and improving pedestrian access to parks are priorities

Planning Commission

04 Outreach

Waterways Advisory Committee

The Final Draft Plan Update was presented to the Planning Commission on February 14, 2019.

City Council This section will be completed following the City Council meeting on March 12, 2019.

• November 29, 2018: Administrative Draft Plan Update 2018 »» Reviewed recommendations for consistency with the Citywide Creeks Master Plan »» Provided detailed feasibility input on proposed shared use paths and creek trails

PROJECTS, PROGRAMS, & POLICIES

The active transportation network described in this Plan Update 2018 seeks to provide the Santa Rosa community with convenient, comfortable, and healthy transportation choices.

Recommendations are considered planning-level, meaning they should be used as a guide when implementing projects. In some cases, traffic impact analysis and more detailed design analysis will be required to evaluate specific site conditions and develop designs that reflect conditions and constraints.

• Projects describes the proposed bicycling and walking infrastructure improvements, including sections for crossing improvements and for studies at locations where further analysis or community outreach is necessary to determine the most appropriate improvement type for the location • Citywide Projects describes improvements that should be pursued throughout Santa Rosa as opportunities arise, but specific locations for these improvements have not been identified in this Plan Update 2018

05 Projects, Programs, & Policies

Built on the needs and opportunities identified through the evaluation of existing conditions, progress made since the development of the 2010 Plan, extensive community input, and datadriven analyses, this chapter presents the projects, programs, and policy changes for the City of Santa Rosa. Improvements identified during previous planning efforts or studies were also reviewed for this Plan Update 2018, including the Uncontrolled Crossing Study and numerous Safe Routes to School Audit reports.

This chapter includes the following sections:

• Programs includes recommended education, encouragement, enforcement, and evaluation activities to be pursued or expanded by the City and its partners • Policy Changes includes changes to municipal codes, operating procedures, or other policies that will support a more walkable and bikeable Santa Rosa For a table of infrastructure recommendations and studies, see Appendix A.

PROJECTS

Bicycle Network Projects

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

• Class III Bicycle Routes: Signed routes for bicyclists on low-speed, low-volume streets where lanes are shared with motorists

Bicycle network projects are categorized based on the four classifications recognized by Caltrans, along with two sub-classifications, described in detail in Chapter 3 and the Bicycle and Pedestrian Facility Guidelines in Appendix B. These include:

»» Class III Bicycle Boulevards: Bicycle routes that are further enhanced with traffic calming features or other treatments to prioritize bicyclist comfort

• Class I Shared Use Paths: Dedicated paths for walking and bicycling completely separate from the roadway

• Class IV Separated Bikeways: Onstreet bicycle facilities with a physical barrier between the bicycle space and motor vehicle lanes, including bollards, curbs, or parking

• Class II Bicycle Lanes: Striped lanes for bicyclists »» Class II Buffered Bicycle Lanes: Bicycle lanes that include a striped “buffer” area either between the bicycle lane and travel lane or between the bicycle lane and parked cars

Nearly 130 miles of new bikeways are proposed in this Plan Update 2018, which would more than double the current 113 miles of bikeways in the City. A summary of existing and proposed bicycle network improvements is provided in Table 5-1 and mapped in Figure 5-1 through Figure 5-6.

Pedestrian Network Projects

Sidewalks and pathways should provide a smooth surface free of obstructions at least five feet wide. In some areas, where high pedestrian activity is expected, wider sidewalks may be desirable. Sidewalks and pathways can either be adjacent to the curb or separated by a planted landscaping strip, as shown below.

This Plan Update 2018 includes 21.2 miles of proposed sidewalks, mapped in Figure 5-7 through Figure 5-12 along with existing and proposed Class I shared use paths.

SIDEWALK

2'â&#x20AC;&#x201C;5'

5' minimum

Property Line

PLANTER STRIP

05 Projects, Programs, & Policies

The pedestrian network includes Class I Shared Use Paths, discussed in the previous section, along with sidewalks. Sidewalks and pathways are an essential element of a pedestrian network. They not only provide a comfortable walking space separate from the roadway, but are also a foundational element of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance.

There are many streets in Santa Rosa with sidewalks or pathways, but the network is inconsistent. Not every street without a sidewalk or pathway is recommended for improvement in this Plan Update 2018 due to limited available public right of way. Instead, sidewalk and pathway recommendations are focused on those corridors where they are likely to serve large numbers or pedestrians or address a priority community concern.

Crossings

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

In addition to network projects for bicycling and walking, locations for new or improved crossings have been gathered and consolidated through this Plan Update 2018 from the numerous public outreach events and a review of past plans including the Uncontrolled Crosswalk Analysis and multiple Safe Routes to School assessment reports. Specific facility recommendations and designs for these locations will be developed by the City on a case-by-case basis due to the highly varied context at each intersection or midblock crossing location. Some locations represent multiple alternatives identified for possible crossings, and improvements may not ultimately be recommended at all locations. Some typical crosswalk markings and enhancements are described on the following pages, as well as in the Bicycle and Pedestrian Facility Guidelines in Appendix B.

Crossing locations were also identified where a trail crossing of a creek may be developed. These locations are identified as trail bridges and will be considered separately from crossings of the roadway network. Crossing locations and trail bridges are mapped in Figure 5-13 through Figure 5-18. CROSSWALK MARKINGS While legal crosswalks exist at all intersections, crosswalk markings highlight crossings to motorists, increasing awareness that people may be crossing the street. Crosswalk markings can also be used to guide people walking to desired crossing locations, or to designate legal midblock crosswalks. Standard “transverse” markings consist of two parallel lines that mark the edges of the crosswalk, shown at left and right in the illustration top right.

These markings are more noticeable to drivers and are typically used at uncontrolled crossings, where slower walkers are expected (near schools and senior centers), and where high numbers of pedestrian related crashes have occurred. In school areas, crosswalk markings are yellow.

CURB EXTENSIONS Curb extensions improve visibility of pedestrians and reduce crossing times by shortening the length of the crossing. This may reduce pedestrian collisions by reducing the length of time that pedestrians are exposed to potential conflicts with motorists. Curb extensions also narrow the perceived roadway width for drivers, which may reduce speeds. At signalized intersections, curb extensions can reduce delays by allowing for shorter pedestrian “walk” phases due to the reduced crossing distance.

Projects, Programs, & Policies

High visibility crosswalk markings can include “continental” crosswalks with bold white bars that run perpendicular to the pedestrian path of travel (shown top and bottom in the illustration top right), and “ladder” crosswalks which combine continental markings with the traditional transverse lines.

Curb extensions extend the sidewalk or curb line out into the parking lane on a street, reducing the effective street width. They can only be used where there is on-street parking, and should not encroach into bicycle lanes.

City of Santa Rosa â&#x20AC;˘ BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

ADVANCE STOP OR YIELD LINE Advance stop bars are placed six to ten feet before a marked crosswalk to indicate to motorists where they should stop. At uncontrolled or midblock crossings, yield lines are used instead of stop bars. Advance stop bars or yield lines improve visibility of pedestrians by discouraging drivers from encroaching into the crosswalk. This is especially important at uncontrolled crossings on multi-lane streets, where a vehicle stopped too close to a crosswalk may hide a pedestrian from view of an approaching driver in the second lane. PEDESTRIAN REFUGE ISLAND Pedestrian refuge islands can improve pedestrian comfort and reduce collisions by providing a safe waiting area in the median on wide or busy streets. This allows people walking to cross the roadway in two stages, waiting for a gap in one direction of oncoming traffic at a time.

100

The waiting area should be protected by a physical barrier on either side, such as raised median islands or planters. The crossing surface should remain level through the waiting area, and may be angled to encourage pedestrians to face oncoming traffic as they approach the second crossing leg. Refuge islands may be combined with beacons or other treatments to further improve challenging crossings. RECTANGULAR RAPID FLASHING BEACON Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs) are used to increase visibility of pedestrians at marked crosswalks where traffic signals or stop signs are not warranted. They consist of a pedestrian crossing sign supplemented by a pair of bright rectangular lights that flash in a rapid alternating pattern when a pedestrian presses a button. Many assemblies are solar powered stand-alone units that can be installed without costly wiring work.

LEAD PEDESTRIAN INTERVAL

Pedestrian hybrid beacons, sometimes referred to as HAWK beacons, are a traffic control device that can be activated by a pedestrian to stop cross traffic. The beacon consists of three lights on an overhead mast arm that remain dark until a pedestrian presses a button to request a walk phase. Yellow lights flash in an alternating pattern to alert motorists that a red phase will be starting, followed by a solid red light that requires motorists to stop. A pedestrian signal shows a “walk” phase during this red signal, followed by a flashing hand and then “do not walk” phase. After the pedestrian phase concludes, the red signal goes dark and motorists may proceed.

Lead pedestrian intervals improve visibility of pedestrians at signalized intersections by beginning the “walk” phase a few seconds before the complementary green signal for drivers. This allows pedestrians to get a head start across the street, bringing them forward into the field of view of drivers who may be turning across the crosswalk.

Studies

City of Santa Rosa â&#x20AC;˘ BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

108

A number of locations, including both bicycle and pedestrian corridors, require greater community outreach and/or analysis than can be conducted as part of this planning process. At some locations, further study is needed to determine whether bicycling or walking facilities are feasible. At others, a preferred facility has been identified but further study or outreach is needed to develop a detailed design or alignment that balances the needs of all community members. Studies are mapped with bicycle, pedestrian, and crossing projects on previous pages, and are described briefly below. STONY POINT ROAD CORRIDOR STUDY Stony Point Road is an important artery of the bicycle and pedestrian network in Santa Rosa, providing a north-south connection across State Route 12 from Guerneville Road to Sebastopol Road. It is also a busy, high-speed arterial street, with average daily traffic volumes between 20,000 and 30,000 and posted speed limits of 35 to 40 mph.

The corridor is also part of the HIN for both bicyclists and pedestrians, with fatal or severe injury collisions occurring at a higher frequency than other corridors in the community. This Plan Update 2018 recommends this corridor be studied from Guerneville Road to Sebastopol Road for bicycle or pedestrian facilities that increase comfort and may reduce the frequency and severity of collisions. OAKMONT CONNECTION ALTERNATIVES After the removal of a portion of the designated Bicycle Route 231, multiple alternative routes are identified for study to create a new walking and bicycling connection to SR 12 and the planned Sonoma Valley Trail through the Oakmont neighborhood. Some alternatives also have potential to create improved access for emergency vehicles into the Oakmont neighborhood. Community outreach produced differing opinions on acceptable locations for connections, suggesting a need for further study and more intensive engagement with neighborhood residents to identify a preferred route.

4TH STREET BIKEWAY

4th Street near College Avenue is a wide, multi-lane street that lacks comfortable bicycling facilities.

Bicycle facilities are recommended for further study on Montgomery Drive from Summerfield Road eastward, ending near Spring Lake and Boas Drive. This entire corridor was recommended for Class II bicycle lanes in the 2010 plan, and the segment west of Mission Boulevard was identified as part of the HIN during this Plan Update 2018. Montgomery Drive is narrow through this section; providing bicycle facilities may require widening the road or providing a separate Class I shared use path.

05 Projects, Programs, & Policies

4th Street is an important connection from D Street in downtown Santa Rosa to Farmers Lane where it becomes State Route 12. This corridor has limited space available, and was identified as part of the pedestrian HIN during this Plan Update 2018. A study is necessary to evaluate alternatives to provide bicycling or walking facilities while balancing high traffic volumes and other needs.

MONTGOMERY DRIVE BICYCLE FACILITIES

A second study for bicycle facilities on Montgomery Drive is recommended in this Plan Update 2018 between Alderbrook Drive and Hahman Drive. This segment was also identified as a priority in the 2010 plan.

109

City of Santa Rosa â&#x20AC;˘ BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

COLLEGE AVENUE COMPLETE STREETS STUDY

BROOKWOOD AVENUE PEDESTRIAN IMPROVEMENTS

Between Kowell Lane and Morgan Street, College Avenue is a highly used corridor with limited right of way and a strong demonstrated need for bicycling and walking improvements. Between Link Lane and Mendocino Avenue, this corridor is part of the HIN identified during this Plan Update 2018. The width, lane configuration, and onstreet parking presence vary along the corridor, creating challenges for people walking and bicycling. A complete streets study is recommended to develop a corridor plan that balances the needs of all modes of transportation.

Brookwood Avenue from 2nd Street to Sonoma Avenue, across Santa Rosa Creek, was identified by the community during outreach for this Plan Update 2018. A study should evaluate opportunities to improve pedestrian access and comfort along this corridor, including considering pedestrian-scale lighting.

CONNECTION FROM SMART TO CODDINGTOWN MALL A study is recommended to identify a desirable route for people walking and bicycling between the SMART Santa Rosa North station and Coddingtown Mall, consistent with the station area plan. This may include an off-street connection between Range Avenue and Herbert Street, or across Steele Creek south of Guerneville Road. Once a preferred route is established and built, wayfinding signs should be installed to create a comfortable and easy-to-navigate connection.

BENNETT VALLEY ROAD TRAIL This study should evaluate alternatives to provide a Class I shared use path or other bicycling and walking connection along Bennett Valley Road from Farmers Lane to Yulupa Avenue. This Plan Update 2018 includes projects that connect to each end of this study: a Class I shared use path extending south from the intersection at Farmers Lane will connect to Yolanda Avenue, and Class II bicycle lanes will continue southeast on Bennett Valley Road from the intersection with Yulupa Avenue.

MCCONNELL AVENUE BICYCLE BOULEVARD

CAR-FREE ELLIOTT AVENUE

The Roseland neighborhood, newly annexed into the City of Santa Rosa, developed as an unincorporated area of Sonoma County and lacks sidewalks or other pedestrian connections in places. A shared use path along Roseland Creek would create a comfortable connection for people walking and bicycling between Stony Point Road and Burbank Avenue, potentially creating an alternative that allows bicyclists and pedestrians to avoid Stony Point Road which was identified as part of the HIN.

05 Projects, Programs, & Policies

Between Mendocino Avenue and North Street, McConnell Avenue is a candidate to create a bicycle boulevard connection on McConnell Avenue. This connection was identified as a desired bikeway by the community during outreach for this Plan Update 2018, and will be studied for feasibility including consideration of traffic speeds and volumes, parking utilization, neighborhood outreach, and crossings or connections at either end of the new facility.

ROSELAND CREEK TRAIL

Elliott Avenue, on the north edge of the Santa Rosa Junior College Campus, is an attractive route for people walking and bicycling. The street could potentially have significantly increased active transportation uses pending the outcome of the Highway 101 overcrossing environmental review. Community members expressed a desire for the City to consider closing Elliott Avenue to car traffic and creating a bicycle and pedestrian mall connecting the future Highway 101 overcrossing and Mendocino Avenue.

111

CITYWIDE PROJECTS

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

In addition to specific infrastructure projects and related programmatic efforts, some amenities are needed citywide to complete the active transportation network. These amenities should be installed as a matter of policy in conjunction with any City project as opportunities arise, or when development occurs. Citywide amenities recommended in this Plan Update 2018 include a comprehensive wayfinding program and secure bicycle parking.

Wayfinding

The California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD) includes standard bicycle wayfinding signs, but they are also used for Class III Bicycle Route signs. This may cause confusion for bicyclists, and does not serve pedestrian wayfinding or trail users. Some cities have modified the standard sign to change “bike route” to “bikeway,” and others have developed and installed non-standard enhanced wayfinding signs that include unique branding for the community. The non-standard option provides the most flexibility to meet community needs and serve both bicyclists and pedestrians.

Wayfinding signs direct bicyclists or Fundamental Navigational Elements • On Street Signage This Plan Update 2018 recommends pedestrians along the existing network the City develop and implement a and to key community destinations. comprehensive wayfinding program for Signs typically include distance or time bicyclists and pedestrians, integrating and direction (using an arrow) to key this program with SMART station and destinations.

Bicycle Parking

SHORT TERM BICYCLE PARKING Bicycle parking can be categorized into short-term and long-term parking. Bicycle racks are the preferred device for short-term bicycle parking. These racks serve people who leave their bicycles for relatively short periods of time, typically for shopping or errands, dining, or recreation. Bicycle racks provide a high level of convenience and moderate security. The rack types illustrated below and recommended for use in Santa Rosa are consistent with the Association of Pedestrian and Bicycle Professionals (APBP) Essentials of Bike Parking: Selecting and Installing Bike Parking that Works (2015). The City may also choose to partner with local artist

LONG TERM BICYCLE PARKING Long-term bicycle parking includes bike lockers and secure parking areas (SPAs) and serves people who intend to leave their bicycles for longer periods of time. Bike lockers may vary in design and operation including keyed lockers that are rented to one individual on an annual or monthly basis or e-lockers that can be reserved online in hourly increments and unlocked with a credit card or an access code.

05 Projects, Programs, & Policies

No bicycling network is complete without convenient and secure bicycle parking. Bicycle parking can take many forms, from a simple bicycle rack to secure storage in a locker or gated area. This Plan Update 2018 recommends the City continue to expand its bicycle parking as opportunities arise and new development occurs.

groups to pursue customized racks that serve as bicycle parking in addition to public art. Where possible, on-street bicycle corrals can be used to provide increased bicycle parking where high demand or limited sidewalk space exists.

These facilities provide a higher level of security than bicycle racks, and are typically found at transit stations, multifamily residential buildings, and commercial buildings, though they may also be useful in Downtown Santa Rosa, near SMART stations, or in other areas where bicyclists running multiple errands would benefit from a secure place to store parcels in addition to their bicycle.

Pedestrian Scale Lighting

Amenities

Pedestrian scale lighting is a type of lighting with frequent lampposts at low height that illuminate the walking area. This typically includes poles 12 to 15 feet high spaced 25 to 30 feet apart, directly above walking areas. Pedestrian scale lighting not only increases visibility of pedestrians for drivers at night, it contributes to a more comfortable and inviting streetscape for people walking at night.

Sidewalk and trail furnishings like benches, shade structures, restrooms, water fountains, and trash receptacles contribute to a cleaner, more comfortable, and more pedestrian-oriented public realm. These elements not only encourage the activation of Santa Rosaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sidewalk and trail networks, they contribute to a more accessible pedestrian network for all residents. The City has adopted a Street Furnishings Palette as part of its Bicycle and Pedestrian Facility Guidelines for the downtown core area, which may be expanded to include recommended furnishings for trails and other areas of the community. Seniors and those with mobility impairments will benefit from frequent places to stop and rest, and this was a priority identified by the community during outreach for this Plan Update 2018.

Pedestrian scale lighting should be appropriately designed to illuminate only the areas needed and be no brighter than necessary. Street trees should be appropriately maintained so they do not obstruct illumination from the lighting along sidewalks and pathways. This Plan Update 2018 recommends the City evaluate locations where pedestrian scale lighting may improve pedestrian comfort and encourage walking, including Downtown, the junior college area, and trails.

This Plan Update 2018 recommends the City identify and pursue opportunities to provide amenities in the downtown, near transit stops, and along trails in the community.

PROGRAMS

The fifth E commonly included in discussions of active transportation is Engineering, which is reflected by the recommended infrastructure projects listed in this chapter.

Education programs are designed to improve safety and awareness. They can include programs that teach students how to safely cross the street, or teach drivers where to anticipate bicyclists and how to share the road safely.

Programs recommended on the following pages should include outreach and education in both English and Spanish to serve the diverse Santa Rosa community. Given limited staff time and resources available, programs should be implemented or continued as funding and resources allow. Partnering with local organizations and other agencies is a key strategy to sustainable program activity.

Encouragement programs provide incentives and support to help people leave their car at home and try walking or bicycling instead.

05 Projects, Programs, & Policies

This section describes recommended bicycle and pedestrian related programs for the City of Santa Rosa. The recommendations are organized in four Eâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s:

Enforcement programs enforce legal and respectful walking, bicycling, and driving. They include a variety of approaches, ranging from police enforcement to neighborhood signage campaigns. Evaluation programs are an important component of any investment. They help measure success at meeting the goals of this Plan Update 2018 and to identify adjustments that may be necessary.

115

Education UPDATED “STREETSMARTS” CAMPAIGN

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

116

Santa Rosa has joined other California cities in implementing “StreetSmarts” media campaigns. StreetSmarts uses print media, radio, and television to educate the community about safe driving, bicycling, skateboarding, and walking behavior. As part of this campaign, the City distributed posters with messages that addressed issues such as: red light running, speeding, bicycle safety, crosswalk safety and compliance, school zone speed compliance, and stop sign compliance. This Plan Update 2018 gives Santa Rosa an opportunity to update these messages to address the most current priorities they have heard from the community, including not texting while driving or walking, how to securely lock your bicycle, the importance of being seen at night as a pedestrian or bicyclist, and helping drivers understand where to anticipate bicyclists. One message identified by the community as a priority is increasing

awareness of California’s Three Foot Passing law, which requires drivers to overtake bicyclists only when there is sufficient room for a three-foot clearance. The County is currently running a related campaign that the City could support with their own artwork and messaging. Artwork for the updated campaign could be created by local students as part of a Traffic Safety Poster Contest, or photos of local families on streets that will be familiar to the community could be used. Posters could also highlight and share information about newly completed projects, such as green transition areas. Funding could be provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety. To maximize engagement and effectiveness of the campaign, the city can develop messaging and choose graphics with involvement from the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board, Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition, law enforcement, schools, business owners, civic leaders, and community advocates.

BICYCLE SAFETY EDUCATION FOR ADULTS

This Plan Update 2018 recommends continuing these classes, which the City can support by advertising the classes and/or providing meeting space.

Santa Rosa benefits from a robust Safe Routes to School (SRTS) program coordinated by Sonoma County Transportation Authority (SCTA) and the Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition. Twenty-six schools in the City participate in activities with the SRTS program, but involvement varies from school to school. This Plan Update 2018 recommends the City seek grant funding to prepare a SRTS Plan to document and evaluate effectiveness of existing program activities, and identify priority programs to expand to all schools. This should include Suggested Routes to School maps at all schools, which help families plan their walking or bicycling trip to school by highlighting enhanced crossings and bikeways, and continued participation in school walking audits to identify infrastructure improvements.

05 Projects, Programs, & Policies

The Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition (SCBC) currently offers Smart Cycling classes once a month at their office in downtown Santa Rosa, in addition to periodically offering on-bicycle educational rides for adults. These courses are based on a curriculum from the League of American Bicyclists that focuses on how bicyclists should behave so they are safer, more predictable, and can be confident riding on streets both with and without dedicated bicycle facilities. The SCBC classes also incorporate photos and video clips of local streets to help students understand how various scenarios apply to real Santa Rosa locations.

117

Encouragement

City of Santa Rosa â&#x20AC;˘ BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

118

HIRE A BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN COORDINATOR This Plan Update 2018 recommends hiring a staff person who can work on bicycle and pedestrian projects and program coordination full time. This person ensures that all planning, public works, and transportation projects account for bicyclists and pedestrians. They can also write grant applications to fund projects and programs and be tasked to support all bicycle and pedestrian coordination with the public and neighboring jurisdictions. If funding is not available to create a new position, the City may consider hiring interns to work on bicycle and pedestrian projects until a full-time staff member can be funded. Some organizations and foundations will fund staff member salaries, fellowships, or contractor salaries for a set period of time. The City may consider applying for grants from one or more of these foundations.

SOCIAL WALKS/RIDES Supporting social walks and bicycle rides in Santa Rosa can provide many benefits to the community. People who are uncomfortable bicycling or walking alone, or who are unfamiliar with the best routes to use, will benefit from having a group to show them the way. Rides can also be used as informal education opportunities to remind participants about safe walking and bicycling behavior and sharing the road, or combined with other efforts like tours of historic neighborhoods. This Plan Update 2018 recommends the City partner with or support local organizations who wish to host rides or walks, for example the Council on Aging and the Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition. WALKING & BIKING AMBASSADORS During the public outreach activities conducted for this Plan Update 2018, the community repeatedly expressed concerns about personal security and comfort when bicycling or walking in Santa Rosa, especially on the extensive creek trail network. These trails provide a high quality experience for walking and bicycling separated from high-traffic streets, but can be secluded with minimal surveillance.

The Guadalupe River Park Conservancy in San Jose operates a volunteer trail ambassador program, where volunteers wear green vests to identify themselves and spend at least 45 minutes each week bicycling or walking on the trail. In addition to reporting maintenance needs, ambassadors carry small kits with supplies for basic first aid, bicycle repairs, graffiti removal, or other tasks based on their interest and preference.

ADOPT-A-TRAIL PROGRAM The City of Santa Rosa may consider a voluntary Adopt-a-Trail Program to assist with maintenance and cleanup of trails in the community. This program may be combined or coordinated with the Walking and Biking Ambassador Program, if desired. The City of Sonoma supports maintenance of its trail network through a voluntary Adopt-a-Bike-Path Program. Participants commit to maintain their adopted section of pathway for one year, including maintaining it at least once per month. Maintenance activities performed as part of the program include litter removal and vegetation trimming, and participants are encouraged to discuss additional ideas with the Public Works Director. Path adopters are recognized on a sign on their section of trail.

05 Projects, Programs, & Policies

An ambassador program could recruit volunteers to act as eyes on the trail, report maintenance needs, share educational materials and maps, and provide a friendly presence on the trail network. Staffing needs for this program could be limited to coordinating occasional volunteer training sessions. Trusted volunteers may be enlisted to help with program coordination, and grant funds could be pursued to offer a stipend to ambassadors or coordinators.

This Plan Update 2018 recommends Santa Rosa consider a pilot Walking & Biking Ambassador program in partnership with the Bicycle & Pedestrian Advisory Board, the Southeast Greenway Team, and the Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition.

BIKE RACK PROGRAM

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

120

Bike Rack programs coordinate and streamline bike rack installations. The program could be managed by an intern who could work with staff and business owners to install bike racks and bike corrals citywide. This also ensures bike racks are properly installed as to not block sidewalks while still being usable for bicyclists. Currently, there are no bike corrals installed in Santa Rosa. The City could evaluate installing bike corrals in high-traffic locations such as in vehicle parking spots on the corners of 4th and 5th Streets in downtown. This not only sends a statement that secure bike parking is important to the city and community members, but bike corrals increase visibility at intersections for all roadway users. An increase in visibility should reduce the risk of a collision in these locations.

bicycle theft. Bicycle lockers should also be considered in downtown Santa Rosa and at commercial hubs to serve people shopping or running multiple errands who would like a secure place to store their bicycle and deposit purchases or other items during their trip.

BICYCLE FRIENDLY BUSINESS PROGRAM

The city could also develop customized bike racks. These racks can serve as a “brand,” highlighting the Santa Rosa identity as a bicycle-friendly community and can double as art features.

Bicycle Friendly Business programs recognize businesses who make it easy and convenient for both employees and customers to arrive by bicycle. This requires different strategies to accommodate the different needs of customers and employees. To accommodate customers, providing bicycle parking and supporting City bicycling projects can make it safer and easier to travel by bicycle. Some businesses also choose to offer discounts or incentives to people who arrive by bicycle.

Where appropriate, this program could also coordinate with local businesses to provide bicycle lockers or other secure parking for employees and long-term visitors. Secure long-term parking is a key component of the bicycle network to encourage employees to bicycle instead of driving, and helps reduce

For employees, offering secure longterm parking for bicycles is key. This could include a secure gated bicycle parking area, or access to bicycle lockers. If space is not available for dedicated secure bicycle parking, business owners and landlords can consider allowing employees and tenants to bring bicycles

inside and store them in their workspace or another designated location. Providing changing areas, showers, or lockers to store belongings can also make it easier for employees to bicycle to work.

SMART CORRIDOR BIKE SHARE In November 2017, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) approved over $800,000 for a bike share pilot program in Sonoma and Marin counties along the SMART train corridor. The program is considering employing GPS-enabled dockless bikes that do not require bikes to be placed at more traditional docking stations. These counties predict that the presence of shared bikes around SMART stations could free up space currently being used by people bringing bikes onto SMART trains. Instead, people can used shared bike near stations for their first mile and last mile commutes.

The City of Santa Rosa can support Sonoma County in these efforts, and help the county determine guidelines for the traditional or dockless bikes that best serve the needs of Santa Rosa residents. In addition, Santa Rosa can help advertise and gain interest for the bike sharing system.

05 Projects, Programs, & Policies

By recognizing businesses who support bicycling, Santa Rosa can support their local economy while fostering partnerships with the Chamber of Commerce and business owners to build community support for bicycling projects and programs. The League of American Bicyclists has a Bicycle Friendly Business program similar to the BFC program, and some communities have chosen to develop their own programs. Sutter Hospital was recently awarded the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first Bicycle Friendly Business award from the League.

SMART carried nearly 723,000 passengers and almost 65,500 bicycles in its first year of service from August 2017 to August 2018. This means one in nine riders are bringing a bicycle on board with them, and trains are quickly reaching capacity for bicycles. Supporting a regional bicycle sharing program could reduce the number of bicycles brought on board if riders have access to a shared bicycle at each end of their transit trip.

The City may also study shared e-scooters as an alternative or complement to bike share. Shared scooter systems have become increasingly popular, and according to a survey of system users in Portland, up to 34 percent of scooter trips taken by residents replaced a trip that would otherwise have been taken in a car. Among visitors to the city, 48 percent of scooter trips replaced a car trip.

Enforcement BAIT BIKE PROGRAM

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Bike theft is a concern in the Santa Rosa community, with many residents identifying it as a barrier that currently discourages them from bicycling more often. Bait bike programs involve a bicycle outfitted with a discrete tracking device monitored by the local police department. The bicycle should be nondescript and consistent with the character of bicycles ridden in the community. Periodically, the police department will lock the bait bike at a location where thefts have been reported, and monitor the tracking device. When the bicycle is stolen, police can then use the location data to recover the bicycle and cite the thief. These programs can be particularly effective in prosecuting ‘organized’ bicycle theft operations that remove bicycles from the community to be sold in bulk at another location. Both Sonoma County and the City of Santa Rosa have used GPS tracking of “bait” items to apprehend thieves in the past. Sonoma County has implemented a bait bike program on occasion, and the Santa Rosa Police Department has used bait packages to target package thieves during the holiday season.

122

Citations should be monitored and routinely reviewed to ensure the bait bike program is not disproportionately targeting disadvantaged or minority communities in Santa Rosa. Similarly, bait bike deployment locations should be selected to provide geographic equity covering all parts of the City evenly. An alternative model to this traditional bait bike program involves inexpensive Bluetooth devices being installed on as many bicycles as possible in the community. In Davis, CA, the local bike club used donations to purchase small trackers called Tiles and install them inconspicuously on bicycles as requested. The Tiles pair with a smartphone app that shows the location of your bicycle. If a stolen bicycle is reported as “lost” through the app, any smartphones with the Tile app in the vicinity of the missing bicycle will receive an alert and can help law enforcement retrieve the bicycle. An outreach campaign should be paired with the launch of a bait bike program to publicize the effort and discourage theft by emphasizing that local police are taking bicycle theft seriously. It can also be a deterrent to thieves if they know the bicycle they are stealing may be a bait bike.

TARGETED ENFORCEMENT

This Plan Update 2018 recommends continuing these efforts, with a focus on those behaviors that create the greatest risk or potential conflict, and care should be taken that programs do not unfairly target specific demographics or modes of transportation. This Plan Update 2018 also recommends continuing current educational enforcement activities, where officers stop individuals and discuss the unsafe behavior observed without issuing citations. Behaviors and locations for targeted enforcement should be reviewed each year based on collision data and community input. Behaviors cited as challenges during public outreach for this Plan Update 2018 include drivers failing to stop at red lights and yield to pedestrians in crosswalks, parking in bicycle lanes, pedestrians crossing streets illegally, and bicyclists riding on the wrong side of the road.

Evaluation ANNUAL REPORT CARD An annual report card assesses the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s progress toward goals and objectives outlined in this Plan Update 2018, implementation of its projects and programs, and changing mode splits for active transportation. Annual report cards can also incorporate a review of effectiveness to evaluate costs and benefits of various efforts and adjust investments to maximize results. This Plan Update 2018 recommends the City work with the BPAB to develop an Annual Report Card that tracks progress toward implementing this Plan Update 2018 and incorporates annual collision data, SRTS program and participation data, and other relevant information to highlight successes and challenges of improving walking and bicycling each year. Specific performance measures identified by the City and the community should be included in this card on an annual basis to track key metrics over time and better understand successes and challenge areas.

05 Projects, Programs, & Policies

The Santa Rosa Police Department currently conducts targeted enforcement periodically based on requests from the community or focus areas of grant funding received.

123

POLICY CHANGES

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

124

The following recommended changes include policies, operational changes, and municipal code revisions that support the goals of this Plan Update 2018 or address community-identified barriers to walking and bicycling in Santa Rosa.

Vision Zero Policy

The high-injury network identified in this 2018 Plan Update 2018 is a strong start to developing this understanding. Asking additional questions about the causes and locations of crashes can help the City re-prioritize funding for projects that target behaviors and locations that may be contributing to crashes:

Vision Zero is a traffic philosophy that rejects the idea that traffic crashes are accidents, and instead asserts that serious injuries or fatalities on the transportation system are preventable and unacceptable.

• What are the total number of crashes (all modes)? Of these crashes, how many were fatal or severe injuries?

The more Santa Rosa understands where and why crashes happen, the more different departments can take actions to reduce them. The City can use this understanding to develop roadway designs that prioritize bicycling, walking, and other transportation facilities that enhance comfort and can be implemented quickly to adapt and respond to identified challenges.

• How are the crashes affected by posted speed, road class, or other identifiable feature of the road?

• What were the most striking contributing factors?

An inclusive process and equitable outcomes are a core component of adopting Vision Zero. Santa Rosa has emphasized their commitment to equity in this 2018 Plan Update 2018 by offering inclusive outreach opportunities and identifying projects near schools, around housing for seniors and people with disabilities, and neighborhoods most reliant on public transportation. In addition, actions can be taken to address equity in enforcement.

As part of this Plan Update 2018, the City and the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board reached out to the City of Fremont to discuss their Vision Zero program.

The Vision Zero Network has resources and case studies available to guide cities as they develop and implement Vision Zero Action Plans. More information at: â&#x20AC;˘ visionzeronetwork.org/project/ roadmapforaction

Traffic deaths are inevitable Perfect human behavior Prevent collisions Individual responsibility Saving lives is expensive

VISION ZERO

05 Projects, Programs, & Policies

This Plan Update 2018 recommends the City consider whether adoption of a Vision Zero Policy is an appropriate step to increase the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s existing commitment for all users of its diverse transportation systems. MTC awards additional points in their Regional Active Transportation Program competitive grant process for communities that have adopted a Vision Zero Policy.

TRADITIONAL APPROACH

Traffic deaths are preventable Integrate human failing in approach Prevent fatal and severe crashes Systems approach Saving lives is not expensive

125

School Zone Speed Limits

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

On January 1, 2008, AB 321 took effect allowing local governments to extend school zones up to 1,000 feet and reduce speed limits within 500 feet of a school site to 15 mph in residential neighborhoods or on highways with speed limits of 30 mph or less. In Santa Rosa from 2007 to 2017, nearly 300 crashes involving a bicyclist or pedestrian occurred within 500 feet of a school campus—146 crashes involving a bicyclist, and 138 crashes involving a pedestrian. More than 40 percent of these occurred during school hours, between 7 am and 4 pm. At 15 mph, more than 90 percent of pedestrians are likely to survive a crash with only minor injuries. As speeds increase, however, crash severity increases dramatically. At 30 mph most crashes result in serious injuries to pedestrians, and nearly half may be fatal. At 40 mph, 90 percent of pedestrians will be killed in a crash. Reducing speeds even slightly can have a profound effect on safety for people walking and bicycling to school. Cities that have already enacted this law include Berkeley, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and the City of Goleta. This Plan Update 2018 recommends the City enact this law around eligible schools. AB 321 requires engineering and traffic surveys to be conducted to

126

indicate that the existing speed limit is not appropriate. Santa Rosa can work with the Transportation and Public Works department to determine an evaluation and implementation schedule that accommodates staff capacity. In addition, Santa Rosa can work with local law enforcement to educate parents and drivers about the new policy and why certain school areas were selected.

Vehicle Miles Traveled Transportation is the largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions in Santa Rosa and the City’s 2012 Climate Action Plan recommends several strategies to reduce the number of miles residents and visitors travel daily by automobile. Following the passage of Senate Bill (SB) 743, CEQA guidelines will change how transportation impacts are measured by transitioning from auto delay calculated as Level of Service (LOS) to vehicle miles traveled (VMT). This Plan Update 2018 recommends the City adopt VMT as its standard for evaluating vehicle miles travelled and greenhouse gas emission impacts of transportation projects. To help make this transition, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) offers Priority Development Area grants to assist municipalities in transitioning their general plans to implement VMT-based transportation impact standards.

Waste Tote Placement

Residential streets in Santa Rosa are currently swept once per month, and collector and arterial streets are swept more frequently. Despite this, community members expressed concerns about debris in bicycle lanes and on shared use paths.

In areas with curbside trash or recycling collection, waste totes improperly placed in bicycle lanes can create challenges for people riding bicycles either by placing them at risk of colliding with a tote or by forcing them to merge into the travel lane to avoid the obstacle.

This Plan Update 2018 recommends reviewing street sweeping practices and street sweeper driver training to ensure on-street bicycle lanes are swept at least monthly, and that they are cleared of any glass or other debris following a collision.

This Plan Update 2018 recommends the City provide clear instruction on its website and in utility bills mailed to residents about proper placement of waste totes. Where on-street parking exists, totes should be placed near the curb within the parking aisle. Where no on-street parking exists, residents should be instructed to place totes against the curb to minimize intrusion into the bicycle lane.

Vegetation Maintenance In many places in Santa Rosa, landscaping and vegetation near sidewalks and bikeways has overgrown into the travelway and creates challenges for people walking and bicycling. Overgrown vegetation can not only create mobility challenges by narrowing the usable travelway, it can limit visibility and contribute to debris on the pathway. Routinely trimming back vegetation and mowing pathway shoulders contributes to a safer and more comfortable active transportation environment.

05 Projects, Programs, & Policies

Street Sweeping

The City should also consider working with waste management companies to add reflective markings to totes to increase their visibility at night and reduce the risk of a bicyclist colliding with a misplaced tote, in addition to stenciling â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do Not Place In Bicycle Laneâ&#x20AC;? on totes to remind residents of proper placement.

This Plan Update 2018 recommends the City promote the online MySantaRosa application for reporting vegetation in need of maintenance to property owners, and develop a policy to respond to reports within a reasonable timeframe.

127

Bicycle Parking at Large Events

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Chapter 11-40 of the Santa Rosa Municipal Code currently addresses the procedures and requirements to apply for an event permit within the City. This Plan Update 2018 recommends revising Section 11040.040 Permit – Conditions for Issuance to require events expected to draw more than 5,000 attendees must provide secure, attended bicycle parking for attendees at no charge. Key considerations include: • A space that is enclosed and secured on three sides (“corral”) must be provided, with the fourth side consisting of tables for checking in bicycles • The corral must be in a visible and easily accessible location within one block of the event • Bicycle parking must be offered for the full duration of the event, including the bicycle parking attendants having access to the location at least one hour before and one hour after the event for setup and break down • Availability and location of free bicycle parking must be noticed on all event

128

promotion where transportation or directional information for the event is advertised, in the same format and with an equal amount of space as parking and transportation information for other modes • Bicycle parking must be attended and monitored at all times with a number of staff sufficient for the size of the event and whether attendees are expected to arrive for a single start time or arrive throughout the event • Bicycles will be checked in and returned with a claim check to ensure the correct bicycle is released to each person, and bicycle valet attendants will record and share the number of bicycles parked at the event in order to better estimate the space needed for the following year • The valet bicycle parking service provider shall have insurance; should the event sponsor provide the bicycle parking service, bicycles checked in must be insured against theft The City of Oakland operates a successful bicycle parking policy for large events, and may be a resource to Santa Rosa.

IMPLEMENTATION PLAN

130

This chapter outlines a strategy towards implementation of the infrastructure projects and includes the following sections: â&#x20AC;˘ Project Evaluation presents the method and data sources used to prioritize projects for implementation, along with a summary of the results

The intent of evaluating projects is to create a strategic list to guide implementation. The project list and evaluation results are flexible concepts that serve as guidelines. Over time as development occurs or other changes to land uses and the transportation network take place, this framework can be used to reevaluate remaining projects and continue pursuing implementation of this Plan Update 2018. A detailed list of all projects is included in Appendix A. Typical costs for each type of infrastructure project are included in the Bicycle and Pedestrian Facility Guidelines in Appendix B.

06 Implementation Plan

This Plan Update 2018 includes projects, programs, and policy changes intended to create a more walkable, bikeable Santa Rosa. Implementation of this Plan Update 2018 will require community support and political leadership in addition to significant funding.

â&#x20AC;˘ Funding Strategies provides an overview of competitive funding sources and eligibilities for the projects in this Plan Update 2018

131

PROJECT EVALUATION / IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY

PROJECT EVALUATION

Two evaluation strategies were used to arrive at four categories representing varying phases and approaches to project implementation

PRIORITY EVALUATION Based on the following criteria:

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

The evaluation strategy described in this chapter reflects a systematic approach to determine each project’s community benefit in a manner that is feasible, fundable, and sustainable.

Collision Reduction

Studies for crossings and corridor improvements were evaluated and ranked on an individual basis, separate from proposed infrastructure projects.

Comfort Network

Connectivity

Gap Closure

Equity

Projects were scored and then considered either :

LOW

HIGH

PRIORITY

Implementation Categories Projects are sorted into four Implementation Categories based on the results of two evaluations: project priority and project feasibility. Each project was scored “high” or “low” on each axis, resulting in the four implementation categories represented in the graphic below.

FEASIBILITY EVALUATION Based on the complexity and typical cost of the project:

Hardscape Improvements

Signs & Striping

LOW

HIGH

FEASIBILITY

Based on the results from the two evaluations, projects are sorted into four:

LOW

PRIORITY

HIGH

IMPLEMENTATION CATEGORIES LONG TERM IMPROVEMENT

SHORT TERM IMPROVEMENT

Projects for further study and evaluation. Seek grant funding to advance those projects.

High priority and easy to implement projects for short term development.

LOW PRIORITY

OPPORTUNITY IMPROVEMENT

Low priority, challenging projects that may be pursued long term, but are not a priority at this time.

Lower priority projects that may become an opportunity if funding or partnership occurs.

LOW

HIGH

FEASIBILITY

132

Low priority improvements are those projects rated lower priority and low feasibility. They represent challenging projects that may not add significant value for a greater portion of the community walking or bicycling network on their own, but are part of a long term vision for active transportation.

Short term improvement projects are rated high priority and high feasibility, and represent projects that could be pursued for implementation within the first three to five years.

Implementation Plan

Long term improvement projects are rated high priority and low feasibility. They may require more study or analysis than short term projects, or more significant funding for construction.

Projects are summarized by implementation category in Table 6-1 and Table 6-2, and mapped in Figure 6-1 through Figure 6-4.

Opportunity improvements represent projects rated lower priority and high feasibility, and may be pursued when nearby development or an overlapping project creates an opportunity to include these easy to implement projects.

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Priority Evaluation

Feasibility Evaluation

Using data from early phases of this Plan Update 2018 process, five criteria listed in Table 6-3 were used to evaluate the priority of infrastructure projects. Input from the community, the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Board, and the Waterways Advisory Committee informed the weighting of these criteria in evaluating overall priority.

In addition to evaluating the priority of each project, this implementation strategy also considers the complexities to design, construct, and maintain the project in a feasibility evaluation. Typically, projects were rated as high or low feasibility based on the bikeway class, project type, or other treatments included. Some projects were reassigned after this initial evaluation based on site-specific considerations.

Each project received a priority score out of ten possible points, with projects scoring 6 or more considered high priority and projects scoring 5 or less considered low priority.

HIGH FEASIBILITY In general, high feasibility projects include: • Most Class II Bicycle Lanes and Class II Buffered Bicycle Lanes, where right of way is available or a road diet is feasible • Class III Bicycle Routes LOW FEASIBILITY In general, low feasibility projects include: • Class I Shared Use Paths • Class II Bicycle Lanes and Class II Buffered Bicycle Lanes that may require parking removal, additional right of way, or further study • Class III Bicycle Boulevards • Class IV Separated Bikeways • Sidewalks • Trail Bridges

138

Table 6-3: Priority Evaluation Criteria CRITERIA

DESCRIPTION Collisions involving bicyclists or pedestrians from September 2007 through August 2017 were analyzed to identify a High Injury Network (HIN) in Santa Rosa, where bicycle or pedestrian related collisions that result in either fatalities or severe injuries are occurring at a relatively high frequency in relation to the citywide street network. For more information about the HIN, see Chapter 3.

Collision Reduction

Projects located on HIN corridors were awarded points. Class I shared use paths, which are not located on the existing street network, were awarded points if they provide a parallel alternative route to a HIN corridor. Trail bridge projects along Class I paths that provide these alternative routes were also awarded points.

Connectivity

Projects within one quarter-mile of a SMART station, Santa Rosa City Bus transit station, or school were awarded points.

Implementation Plan

Improving walking and bicycling access to destinations including schools and transit hubs was identified as a priority by the Santa Rosa community.

Speed limits, travel lanes, daily traffic volumes, and other information about Santa Rosa streets was analyzed to develop a Level of Traffic Stress (LTS) score from one to four for every street segment in the city, with low scores representing relatively low-stress segments and high scores representing highstress segments. For more information about this analysis, see Chapter 3. Comfort Network

Projects along streets with an average LTS score of 3 or 4 were awarded points. Because Class I shared use paths and trail bridges provide a walking and bicycling path completely separated from potential traffic stress, all Class I and trail bridge projects were awarded points.

Closing gaps in the bicycling and walking network is important to create a seamless, connected transportation facility.

Gap Closure

Network projects that close a gap between two existing facilities were awarded points. Crossing projects were awarded points if a sidewalk or trail exists on both sides of the crossing.

Active transportation investments in disadvantaged communities support equity and provide access to transportation choices for neighborhoods that may be more reliant on bicycling, walking, or transit.

Equity

Projects located in a Community of Concern identified by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) were awarded points. For more information about Community of Concern boundaries in Santa Rosa, see Chapter 3. Boundaries may change; the most recent boundaries are published by MTC.

First Phase

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

140

The Short Term and Long Term Implementation Categories together include nearly 70 linear projects likely to provide a great benefit to walking and bicycling in the Santa Rosa community. Given limited resources compared to this volume of improvements, this Plan Update 2018 recommends the City focus on a short list of transformative projects

and studies to be implemented first. This list includes 28 projects from both the Short Term and Long Term categories, and is expected to be reevaluated in the future as projects are completed. First Phase projects are listed alphabetically by location in Table 6-4 through Table 6-7. This order is not intended to reflect any one project being prioritized above another.

FUNDING STRATEGIES

City of Santa Rosa â&#x20AC;˘ BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

A variety of sources exist to fund bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure projects, programs, and studies. Local and regional funding sources that can be used for construction or maintenance of bicycle or pedestrian improvements, along with statewide and federal grant programs, are described on the following pages. Eligibilities for the funding programs listed in this section are summarized in Table 6-8 on page 6-14.

Throughout the nine-county Bay Area, the Bicycle Facilities Grant program strives to reduce emissions from onroad vehicles and improve air quality by helping residents and commuters shift modes to bicycling and walking as alternatives to driving for short distances and first-and-last mile trips. BAAQMD has grant programs that fund both on-street facilities and bicycle parking facilities. Funds are programmed by the BAAQMD.

Local and Regional Funding Sources TRANSPORTATION FUNDS FOR CLEAN AIR Money in the Transportation Funds for Clean Air program, established by Assembly Bill 434, is generated by a $4 vehicle registration surcharge in the nine Bay Area counties. The funds may be used on projects that reduce vehicle emissions, including bicycle and pedestrian projects, and can also be used as a match for competitive state or federal programs. Funds are programmed by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) and Sonoma County Transportation Authority (SCTA).

144

BICYCLE FACILITIES GRANT PROGRAM

ONE BAY AREA GRANT In Sonoma County, One Bay Area grant funds are administered by SCTA. The program emphasizes funding for projects within Priority Development Areas in the region that are in-line with housing and land-use goals. Santa Rosa has received two One Bay Area 2 grants, including a project funding the design of a bicycle and pedestrian bridge over Highway 101. Funds are programmed by SCTA.

TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT ACT ARTICLE 3

Funds are programmed by SCTA.

Measure M is a one-eighth cent sales tax to improve and protect Sonoma County's parks, safeguard water and wildlife, and expand walking, bicycling, and hiking trails. Trail maintenance projects and active transportation projects that improve access to regional parks and trails will be eligible for Measure M's expenditure list. Funds are anticipated to be programmed by Sonoma County Regional Parks (SCRP).

06 Implementation Plan

Transportation Development Act Article 3 (TDA 3) provides funding annually for bicycle and pedestrian projects. Two percent of TDA funds collected within the county are used for TDA 3 projects. Metropolitan Transportation Commission policies require that all projects be reviewed by a BPAC or similar body before approval.

MEASURE M (2018)

MEASURE M (2004) Measure M is a one-quarter cent sales tax in Sonoma County to fund transportation projects including maintenance and traffic safety improvement projects. Four percent of revenues are set aside for bicycle and pedestrian projects. Two projects in Santa Rosa have already been identified by the SCTA as priorities to receive funding: the Santa Rosa Creek Trail, the Highway 101 bicycle and pedestrian overcrossing, and bicycle lanes on Old Redwood Highway, Mendocino Avenue, and Santa Rosa Avenue.

REGIONAL MEASURE 3 Regional Measure 3 uses toll revenue from the Bay Areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seven state-owned toll bridges. The money from Regional Measure 3 funds a variety of highway and transit projects throughout the region. Funds are programmed by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission.

Funds are programmed by SCTA.

145

State and Federal Grant Programs

City of Santa Rosa â&#x20AC;˘ BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

CALIFORNIA ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Active Transportation Program (ATP) funds infrastructure and programmatic projects that support the program goals of shifting trips to walking and bicycling, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and improving public health. Competitive application cycles occur every one to two years, typically in the spring or early summer. Eligible projects include construction of bicycling and walking facilities, new or expanded programmatic activities, or projects that include a combination of infrastructure and noninfrastructure components. Typically no local match is required, though extra points are awarded to applicants who do identify matching funds. Funds are programed by the California Transportation Commission (CTC).

SUSTAINABLE TRANSPORTATION PLANNING GRANTS Caltrans Sustainable Transportation Planning Grants are available to communities for planning, study, and design work to identify and evaluate projects, including conducting outreach or implementing pilot projects. Communities are typically required to provide an 11.47 percent local match, but staff time or in-kind donations are eligible to be used for the match provided the required documentation is submitted. Funds are programed by Caltrans. HIGHWAY SAFETY IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM Caltrans offers Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) grants every one to two years. Projects on any publicly owned road or active transportation facility are eligible, including bicycle and pedestrian improvements. HSIP focuses on projects that explicitly address documented safety challenges through proven countermeasures, are implementation-ready, and demonstrate cost-effectiveness. Funds are programmed by Caltrans.

146

SOLUTIONS FOR CONGESTED CORRIDORS PROGRAM

Funds are programed by the CTC. OFFICE OF TRAFFIC SAFETY Under the Fixing Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, five percent of Section 405 funds are dedicated to addressing nonmotorized safety. These funds may be used for law enforcement training related to pedestrian and bicycle safety, enforcement campaigns, and public education and awareness campaigns.

The Recreational Trails Program helps provide recreational trials for both motorized and nonmotorized trail use. Eligible products include: trail maintenance and restoration, trailside and trailhead facilities, equipment for maintenance, new trail construction, and more. Funds are programed by the California Department of Parks and Recreation.

06 Implementation Plan

Funded by SB1, the Congested Corridors Program strives to reduce congestion in highly traveled and congested through performance improvements that balance transportation improvements, community impacts, and environmental benefits. This program can fund a wide array of improvements including bicycle facilities and pedestrian facilities. Eligible projects must be detailed in an approved corridor-focused planning document. These projects must include aspects that benefit all modes of transportation using an array of strategies that can change travel behavior, dedicate right of way for bikes and transit, and reduce vehicle miles traveled.

RECREATIONAL TRAILS PROGRAM

AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES PROGRAM The AHSC program funds land-use, housing, transportation, and land preservation projects that support infill and compact development that reduces greenhouse gas emissions. Projects must fall within one of three project area types: transit-oriented development, integrated connectivity project, or rural innovation project areas. Fundable activities include: affordable housing developments, sustainable transportation infrastructure, transportation-related amenities, and program costs. Funds are programmed by the Strategic Growth Council and implemented by the Department of Housing and Community Development.

Funds are programmed by the California Office of Traffic Safety.

147

CULTURAL, COMMUNITY AND NATURAL RESOURCES GRANT PROGRAM – PROPOSITION 68

City of Santa Rosa • BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

Proposition 68 authorizes the legislature to appropriate $40 million to the California Natural Resources Agency to protect, restore, and enhance California’s cultural, community, and natural resources. One type of eligible project that this program can fund are projects that develop future recreational opportunities including: creation or expansion of trails for walking, bicycling, and/or equestrian activities and development or improvement of trailside and trailhead facilities, including visitor access to safe water supplies. Funds are programmed by the California Natural Resources Agency.

This program provides local and regional agencies that have passed sales tax measures, developer fees, or other transportation-imposed fees to fund road maintenance and rehabilitation, sound walls, and other transportation improvement projects. Jurisdictions with these taxes or fees are then eligible for a formulaic annual distribution of no less than $100,000. These jurisdictions are also eligible for a competitive grant program. Local Partnership Program funds can be used for a wide variety of transportation purposes including roadway rehabilitation and construction, transit capital and infrastructure, bicycle and pedestrian improvements, and green infrastructure. Funds are programmed by the CTC.

URBAN GREENING GRANTS Urban Greening Grants support the development of green infrastructure projects that reduce GHG emissions and provide multiple benefits. Projects must include one of three criteria, most relevantly: reduce commute vehicle miles travels by constructing bicycle paths, bicycle lanes or pedestrian facilities that provide safe routes for travel between residences, workplaces, commercial centers, and schools. Eligible projects include green streets and alleyways and non-motorized urban trails that provide safe routes for travel between residences, workplaces, commercial centers, and schools. Funds are programmed by the California Natural Resources Agency.

148

LOCAL PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM

ROAD MAINTENANCE AND REHABILITATION PROGRAM Senate Bill 1 created the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Program (RMRP) to address deferred maintenance on state highways and local road systems. Program funds can be spent on both design and construction efforts. On-street active transportationrelated maintenance projects are eligible if program maintenance and other thresholds are met. Funds are allocated to eligible jurisdictions. Funds are programmed by the State Controller's Office with guidance from the CTC.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

City of Santa Rosa â&#x20AC;˘ BICYCLE & PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN

150

Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), an Initial Study was prepared for the 2010 Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, which resulted in a Mitigated Negative Declaration that was approved by the City Council on February 15, 2011 (Resolution No. 27834). CEQA Guidelines section 15162 provides that no additional review is required where a negative declaration has been adopted for a project and there are no substantial changes to the project or changed circumstances which will result in new or more severe environmental impacts and there is no new information showing the project will have significant effects not discussed in the negative declaration.

No substantial changes have been proposed in the Master Plan Update that would result in new or more severe environmental impacts than were analyzed in the 2010 Master Plan mitigated negative declaration; there have been no changes in circumstances resulting in new or more severe impacts; and there is no new information indicating that the project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous mitigated negative declaration. Therefore, further environmental review is not required.

Introduction Updating the City of Santa Rosaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan is intended to promote pedestrian and bicycle activity and comfort level by identifying policies, programs, and infrastructure improvements in the City. This Design Guide has been developed to complement the Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan update and other nationally recognized efforts to promote pedestrian and bicycle comfort level. The chapter will present a toolbox of current engineering standards and design approaches to implement bicycle and pedestrian enhancements.

What, Why, Where, When and How?

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

Future roadway planning, engineering, design and construction will continue to strive for a balanced transportation system that includes a seamless, accessible bicycle and pedestrian network and encourages bicycle and pedestrian travel wherever possible.

b-4

There are many reasons to integrate bicycle and pedestrian facilities into typical roadway development policy. The goal of a transportation system is to better meet the needs of people - whether in vehicles, bicyclists or pedestrians - and to provide access to goods, services, and activities. Supporting active modes gives users important transportation choices, whether it is to make trips entirely by walking or cycling, or to access public transit. Often in urban or suburban areas, walking and cycling are the fastest and most efficient ways to perform short trips. Convenient non-motorized travel provides many benefits, including reduced traffic congestion, user savings, road and parking facility savings, economic development, and a better environment by helping reduce the greenhouse gases as identified in the Climate Action Plan. Compatible design does more than help those who already walk or bicycle. It encourages greater use of non-motorized transportation. The design guidelines and recommendations in this document are for use on City of Santa Rosa roadways. Projects must not only be planned for their physical aspects as facilities serving specific transportation objectives; they must also consider effects on the aesthetic, social, economic and environmental values, needs, constraints and opportunities in a larger community setting. This is commonly known as Context Sensitive Design, and should be employed when determining which standard is applicable in each scenario.

Context

All walkway and bikeway design guidelines in this document meet or exceed the minimums set by the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessible Design. All traffic control devices, signs, pavement markings used and identified in this document must conform to the “California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices” (CAMUTCD) as supplemented and adopted by Caltrans and Caltrans Design Manual.

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

Whenever possible and appropriate City of Santa Rosa’s Traffic & Construction Standards, the California Building Code (CBC), and the National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO)’s standards should be used for all facilities. There are situations where standards cannot be achieved due to geometric or environmental constraints, or may not be appropriate, due to a special situation. Engineering judgment may determine that for specific situations, the dimensions may be reduced.

Design Needs of Pedestrians The CA MUTCD recommends a normal walking speed of 3.5 ft per second when calculating the pedestrian clearance interval at traffic signals. The walking speed can drop to 3 ft per second for areas with older populations and persons with mobility impairments. While the type and degree of mobility impairment varies greatly across the population, the transportation system should accommodate these users to the greatest reasonable extent.

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

Types of Pedestrians

b-8

Pedestrians have a variety of characteristics and the transportation network should accommodate a variety of needs, abilities, and possible impairments. Age is one major factor that affects pedestriansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; physical characteristics, walking speed, and environmental perception. Children have low eye height and walk at slower speeds than adults. They also perceive the environment differently at various stages of their cognitive development. Older adults walk more slowly and may require assistive devices for walking stability, sight, and hearing.

Disabled Pedestrian Design Considerations The table below summarizes common physical and cognitive impairments, how they affect personal mobility, and recommendations for improved pedestrian-friendly design.

Design Needs of Runners

Design Needs of Strollers

Running is an important recreation and fitness activity commonly performed on shared use paths. Many runners prefer softer surfaces (such as rubber, bare earth or crushed rock) to reduce impact. Runners can change their speed and direction frequently. If high volumes are expected, controlled interaction or separation of different types of users should be considered.

Strollers are wheeled devices pushed by pedestrians to transport babies or small children. Stroller models vary greatly in their design and capacity. Some strollers are designed to accommodate a single child, others can carry 3 or more. Design needs of strollers depend on the wheel size, geometry and ability of the adult who is pushing the stroller. Strollers commonly have small pivoting front wheels for easy maneuverability, but these wheels may limit their use on unpaved surfaces or rough pavement. Curb ramps are valuable to these users. Lateral overturning is one main safety concern for stroller users.

Design Needs of Wheelchair Users

Power wheelchairs use battery power to move the wheelchair. The size and weight of power wheelchairs limit their ability to negotiate obstacles without a ramp. Various control units are available that enable users to control the wheelchair movement, based on their ability (e.g., joystick control, breath controlled, etc).

As the American population ages, the age demographics in Santa Rosa may also shift, and the number of people using mobility assistive devices (such as manual wheelchairs, powered wheelchairs) will increase. Manual wheelchairs are self-propelled devices. Users propel themselves using push rims attached to the rear wheels. Braking is done through resisting wheel movement with the hands or arm. Alternatively, a second individual can control the wheelchair using handles attached to the back of the chair.

Maneuvering around a turn requires additional space for wheelchair devices. Providing adequate space for 180 degree turns at appropriate locations is an important element of accessible design.

Design Needs of Bicyclists The facility designer must have an understanding of how bicyclists operate and how their bicycle influences that operation. Bicyclists, by nature, are much more affected by poor facility design, construction and maintenance practices than motor vehicle drivers. By understanding the unique characteristics and needs of bicyclists, a facility designer can provide quality facilities and minimize user risk.

Bicycle Rider - Typical Dimensions

Similar to motor vehicles, bicyclists and their bicycles exist in a variety of sizes and configurations. These variations occur in the types of vehicle (such as a conventional bicycle, a recumbent bicycle or a tricycle), and behavioral characteristics (such as the comfort level of the bicyclist). The design of a bikeway should consider reasonably expected bicycle types on the facility and utilize the appropriate dimensions.

Operating Envelope 8’ 4”

Eye Level 5’

The Bicycle Rider figure illustrates the operating space and physical dimensions of a typical adult bicyclist, which are the basis for typical facility design. Bicyclists require clear space to operate within a facility. This is why the minimum operating width is greater than the physical dimensions of the bicyclist. Bicyclists prefer five feet or more operating width, although four feet may be minimally acceptable.

Handlebar Height 3’8”

In addition to the design dimensions of a typical bicycle, there are many other commonly used pedaldriven cycles and accessories to consider when planning and designing bicycle facilities.

Marked Crosswalks

A marked crosswalk signals to motorists that they must yield to pedestrians and encourages pedestrians to cross at designated locations. Installing crosswalks alone will not necessarily enhance the comfort level of crossings. At mid-block locations, crosswalks can be marked where there is a demand for crossing and there are no nearby marked crosswalks.

Typical Use All crosswalks should be marked at signalized intersections. At unsignalized intersections, crosswalks may be marked under the following conditions: »»

At a complex intersection, to orient pedestrians in finding their way across.

»»

At an offset intersection, to show pedestrians the shortest route across traffic with the least exposure to vehicular traffic and traffic conflicts.

»»

At an intersection with visibility constraints, to position pedestrians where they can best be seen by oncoming traffic.

»»

At an intersection within a school zone on a walking route.

Design Features »»

The crosswalk should be located to align as closely as possible with the through pedestrian zone of the sidewalk corridor.

»»

Users should not have to leave the crosswalk or reorient themselves from the crosswalk when accessing the curb ramp onto the sidewalk.

»»

See page 20 for design guidelines for curb ramps.

Pedestrian Toolbox

Marked crosswalks at Stony Point Road and Stony Circle

Pedestrians are sensitive to out-of-direction travel, and reasonable accommodations should be made to make crossings both convenient at locations with adequate visibility. Continental crosswalk markings should be used at crossings with high pedestrian use or where vulnerable pedestrians are expected, including: school crossings, across arterial streets for pedestrian-only signals, at mid-block crosswalks, and at intersections where there is expected high pedestrian use and the crossing is not controlled by signals or stop signs. High-visibility crosswalks are not appropriate for all locations. Other crosswalk marking patterns are provided for in the CA MUTCD. Some cities prohibit omitting or removing a marked crosswalk at intersections in order to require a three-stage pedestrian crossing. Intersections with three-stage crossings lead to arduous and increased crossing distances, pedestrian frustration, encourages jaywalking, and exhibits modal bias favoring motor vehicle level-of-service over other modes. There are circumstances when only three crosswalks are utilized and typically occur at or near interchanges and freeway ramps.

Materials and Maintenance

Approximate Cost

Because the effectiveness of marked crossings depends entirely on their visibility, maintaining marked crossings should be a high priority. Thermoplastic markings offer increased durability than conventional paint.

Depending on the type of material used, width of the crossing and width of the roadway, approximate installation costs are $500 for a regular striped crosswalk, $1,000 for a ladder crosswalk, and $8,000 for a patterned concrete crosswalk. In addition, the cost of a curb ramp is about $5,000-$10,000 per ramp. Due to various number of crosswalk styles in use, signing standards, color and aesthetics, other factors will affect the final cost.

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

Further Considerations

Maintenance of markings should also be considered. 15

Pedestrian Toolbox

Raised Pedestrian Crossings A raised crosswalk or intersection can eliminate grade changes from the pedestrian path and give pedestrians greater prominence as they cross the street. Raised crosswalks also functions as speed tables, and encourage motorists to slow down. As such, they should be used only in cases where a special emphasis on pedestrians is desired. Raised crosswalks are typically implemented on low-speed streets, Bike Boulevards and other areas of very high pedestrian activity. They are often paired with other treatments such

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

as curb extensions for greater traffic calming effect.

Typical Use

Design Features

Like a speed hump/table, raised crosswalks have a traffic slowing effect which may be unsuitable on high-speed streets, roadways with sharp curves, designated transit or freight routes, and in locations that would reduce access for emergency responders. Use detectable warnings at the curb edges to alert vision-impaired pedestrians that they are entering the roadway.

Refer to Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and California Building Code (CBC) for additional requirements.

Materials and Maintenance Because the effectiveness of marked crossings depends entirely on their visibility, maintaining marked crossings should be a high priority. Ensure drainage pipes used to channel stormwater past the raised intersection are kept free of debris, to prevent stormwater from backing up and pooling.

Approximate Cost Raised crosswalks are approximately $2,000 to $15,000, depending on drainage conditions and material used.

Sidewalk Zones & Widths Sidewalks are the most fundamental element of the walking network, as they provide an area for pedestrian travel separated from vehicle traffic. Providing adequate and accessible facilities can lead to increased numbers of people walking, improved accessibility, and the creation of social space.

Curbside Lane

Buffer Zone

The curbside lane can act as a flexible space to further buffer the sidewalk from moving traffic., and may be used for a bike lane. Curb extensions and bike corrals may occupy this space where appropriate.

The buffer zone, also called the furnishing or landscaping zone, buffers pedestrians from the adjacent roadway, and is also the area where elements such as street trees, signal poles, signs, and other street furniture are properly located.

In the edge zone there should be a 6 inch wide curb.

Pedestrian Through Zone The through zone is the area intended for pedestrian travel. This zone should be entirely free of permanent and temporary objects. Wide through zones are needed in downtown areas or where pedestrian flows are high.

Frontage Zone The frontage zone allows pedestrians a comfortable â&#x20AC;&#x153;shyâ&#x20AC;? distance from the building fronts. It provides opportunities for window shopping, to place signs, planters, or chairs.

»»

At transit stops, an 8 ft by 5 ft clear space is required for accessible passenger boarding/alighting at the front door location per ADA requirements.

»»

Sidewalks should be continuous on both sides of urban commercial streets, and should be required in areas of moderate residential density (1-4 dwelling units per acre).

»»

When retrofitting gaps in the sidewalk network, locations near transit stops, schools, parks, public buildings, and other areas with high concentrations of pedestrians should be the highest priority.

»»

In unincorporated areas of Santa Rosa, no curb and gutter is necessary to establish a sidewalk. Instead, the sidewalk should feature a wide furnishing zone, which may be configured as an open ditch for stormwater catchment and infiltration. Ditches can be retrofitted into bioswales or raingardens for filtration and water purification.

Materials and Maintenance

Approximate Cost

Sidewalks are typically constructed out of concrete and are separated from the roadway by a curb or gutter and sometimes a landscaped boulevard. Less expensive walkways constructed of asphalt, crushed stone, or other stabilized surfaces may be appropriate. Ensure accessibility and properly maintain all surfaces regularly. Surfaces must be firm, stable, and slip resistant. Colored, patterned, or stamped concrete can add distinctive visual appeal.

Cost of standard sidewalks range from about $25 per square foot for concrete sidewalk. This cost can increase with additional right-of-way acquisition or addition of landscaping, lighting or other aesthetic features. As an interim measure, an asphalt concrete path can be placed until such time that a standard sidewalk can be built. The cost of asphalt path can be less than half the cost of a standard sidewalk.

Typical Uses

Pedestrian Toolbox

Curb Ramps Curb ramps are the design elements that allow all users to make the transition from the street to the sidewalk. A sidewalk without a curb ramp can be useless to someone in a wheelchair, forcing them back to a driveway and out into the street for access. There are a number of factors to be considered in the design and placement of curb ramps.

Diagonal ramps shall include a clear space of at least 48” within the crosswalk for user maneuverability

Curb ramps shall be located so that they do not project into vehicular traffic lanes, parking spaces, or parking access aisles. Three configurations are illustrated below.

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

Parallel Curb Ramp

Perpendicular Curb Ramps (Recommended)

Diagonal Curb Ramp

(Crosswalk spacing not to scale. For illustration purposes only)

Typical Use »»

»»

Curb ramps must be installed at all intersections and midblock locations where pedestrian crossings exist, as mandated by federal legislation (1973 Rehabilitation Act and ADA 1990). All newly constructed and altered roadway projects must include curb ramps. In addition, existing facilities must be upgraded to current standards when appropriate. The edge of an ADA compliant curb ramp shall be marked with a tactile warning device (also known as truncated domes) to alert people with visual impairments to changes in the pedestrian environment. Contrast between the raised tactile device and the surrounding infrastructure is important so that the change is readily evident to partially sighted pedestrians. These devices are most effective when adjacent to smooth pavement so the difference is easily detected.

Design Features »»

The level landing at the top of a ramp shall be at least 4 feet long and at least the same width as the ramp itself. The slope of the ramp shall be compliant to current standards.

»»

If the ramp runs directly into a crosswalk, the landing at the bottom will be in the roadway.

»»

If the top landing is within the sidewalk or corner area where someone in a wheelchair may have to change direction, the landing must be a minimum of 4’-0” long (in the direction of the ramp run) and at least as wide as the ramp, although a width of 5’-0” is preferred.

Pedestrian Toolbox

Not recommended: diagonal curb ramp configuration on Marlow Road at Monroe School.

Recommended: SMART Crossing at College Avenue provides bidirectional curb ramps for crossing in both directions.

Further Considerations

Curb return radii need to be considered when designing directional ramps. While curb ramps are needed for use on all types of streets, the highest priority locations are in downtown areas and on streets near transit stops, schools, parks, medical facilities, shopping areas.

Materials and Maintenance

Approximate Cost

It is critical that the interface between a curb ramp and the street be maintained adequately. Asphalt street sections can develop potholes at the foot of the ramp, which can catch the front wheels of a wheelchair.

The cost is approximately $5,000-$10,000 per curb ramp depending on drainage and right-of-way.

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

Where feasible, separate directional curb ramps for each crosswalk at an intersection should be provided rather than having a single ramp at a corner for both crosswalks. Although diagonal curb ramps might save money, they orient pedestrians directly into the traffic zone, which can be challenging for wheelchair users and pedestrians with visual impairment. Diagonal curb ramp configurations are not recommended.

Pedestrian Toolbox

Median Refuge Islands Median refuge islands are located at the mid-point of a marked crossing and help improve pedestrian access by increasing pedestrian visibility and allowing pedestrians to cross one direction of traffic at a time. Refuge islands minimize pedestrian exposure at mid-block crossings by shortening the crossing distance and increasing the number of available gaps for crossing. Cut-through median refuge islands are preferred over curb ramps to better accommodate wheel chairs users.

Typical Use »»

Refuge islands an be applied on any roadway with a left turn center lane or median that is at least 6’ wide. Islands are appropriate at signalized or unsignalized crosswalks.

»»

The refuge island must be accessible, preferably with an at-grade passage through the island rather than ramps and landings.

»»

Provide double centerline marking, reflectors, and “KEEP RIGHT” signage (CA MUTCD R4-7a) in the island on streets with posted speeds above 25 mph.

Materials and Maintenance Refuge islands may require frequent maintenance of road debris. Trees and plantings in a landscaped median must be maintained so as not to impair visibility, and should be no higher than 1 foot 6 inches.

Design Features »»

Median refuge islands can be installed on roadways with existing medians or on multilane roadways where adequate space exists

»»

Median Refuge Islands should always be paired with crosswalks, and should include advance pedestrian warning signage when installed at uncontrolled crossings.

Pedestrian Signalization Improvements

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

Pedestrian signal heads indicate to pedestrians when to cross at a signalized crosswalk. All traffic signals should be equipped with pedestrian signal indications except where pedestrian crossing is prohibited by signage. Pedestrian signals should be used at traffic signals wherever warranted, according to the CA MUTCD.

Typical Use »»

Countdown pedestrian signals are particularly valuable for pedestrians, as they indicate whether a pedestrian has time to cross the street before the signal phase ends. Countdown signals should be used at all new and rehabilitated signalized intersections. Countdown timers are now standard at all signalized crossings in Santa Rosa.

»»

Adequate pedestrian crossing time is a critical element of the walking environment at signalized intersections. The length of a signal phase with parallel pedestrian movements should provide sufficient time for a pedestrian to safely cross the adjacent street.

»»

There are several types of signal timing for pedestrian signals, including concurrent, exclusive, “Leading pedestrian interval” (LPI),

and all-red interval. In general, shorter cycle lengths and extended walk intervals provide better service to pedestrians and encourage better signal compliance. For optimal pedestrian service, fixed-time signal operation usually works best. »»

Leading Pedestrian Intervals (LPI) are used to reduce right turn and permissive left turn vehicle and pedestrian conflicts. The through pedestrian interval is initiated first, in advance of the concurrent through/right/permissive left turn interval. The LPI minimizes vehicle-pedestrian conflicts because it gives pedestrians a 3-10 second headstart into the intersection, thereby making them more visible, and reducing crossing exposure time. Accessible Pedestrian Signals (APS) are recommended with an LPI.

Pedestrian Toolbox

Range Ave at Guerneville Rd

»»

The CA MUTCD recommends that traffic signal timing assumes a pedestrian walking speed of 3.5 ft per second.

»»

At crossings where older pedestrians or pedestrians with disabilities are expected, crossing speeds as low as 3 ft per second should be assumed. Special pedestrian phases can be used to provide greater visibility or more crossing time for pedestrians at certain intersections.

»»

Pedestrian pushbuttons may be installed at locations where pedestrians are expected intermittently. When used, pushbuttons should be well signed and within reach and operable from a flat surface for pedestrians in wheelchairs and with visual disabilities. They should be conveniently placed in the area where pedestrians wait to cross. Section 4E.09 within the CA MUTCD provides detailed guidance for the placement of push buttons to ensure accessibility.

Further Considerations »»

When push buttons are used, they should be located so that someone in a wheelchair can reach the button from a level area of the sidewalk without deviating significantly from the natural line of travel into the crosswalk. Push button should be marked (for example, with arrows) so that it is clear which signal is affected.

»»

In areas with very heavy pedestrian traffic, consider an all-pedestrian signal phase to give pedestrians free passage in the intersection when all motor vehicle traffic movements are stopped.

»»

At locations with very high pedestrian volumes, such as downtown, an exclusive pedestrian signal phase called a “Pedestrian Scramble” can be provided to reduce vehicle turning conflicts.

Materials and Maintenance It is important to perform ongoing maintenance of traffic control equipment. Consider semi-annual inspections of controller and signal equipment, intersection hardware, and detectors.

Approximate Cost Adjusting signal timing is relatively inexpensive, as it requires only a few hours of staff time to accomplish. New signal equipment ranges from $20,000 to $140,000.

RRFBs range in price from $5,000 to $20,000 for a solar powered unit depending on the location, width of the road and other factors.

Pedestrian Toolbox

Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon (HAWK)

Typical Use HAWK beacons are only used at marked midblock crossings or unsignalized intersections. They are typically activated with a pedestrian pushbutton at each end. If a median refuge island is used at the crossing, another pedestrian pushbutton can be located on the island to create a two-stage crossing.

Design Features »»

Hybrid beacons may be installed without meeting traffic signal control warrants if roadway speed and volumes are excessive for comfortable pedestrian crossings.

»»

If installed within a signal system, signal engineers should evaluate the need for the hybrid signal to be coordinated with other signals.

»»

HAWK beacons should be installed at least 100 feet from side streets or driveways that are controlled by STOP or YIELD signs. Parking and other sight obstructions should be prohibited for at least 100 feet in advance of and at least 20 feet beyond the marked crosswalk to provide adequate sight distance. (CA MUTCD 4F)

Further Considerations »»

HAWK beacons may also be actuated by infrared, microwave, or video detectors.

»»

Each crossing, regardless of traffic speed or volume, requires additional review by a registered engineer to identify sight lines, potential impacts on traffic progression, timing with adjacent signals, capacity, and safety.

»»

The installation of HAWK beacons should also include public education and enforcement campaigns to ensure proper use and compliance.

Materials and Maintenance Hybrid beacons are subject to the same maintenance needs and requirements as standard traffic signals. Signing and striping need to be maintained to help users understand any unfamiliar traffic control.

Approximate Cost Hybrid beacons are more expensive than other beacons, ranging in costs from $150,000 to $250,000, but are generally less expensive than full signals.

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

Hybrid beacons or High-Intensity Activated Crosswalk (HAWK) beacons are used to improve unsignalized intersections or midblock crossings of major streets. It consists of a signal head with two red lenses over a single yellow lens on the major street, and a pedestrian signal head for the crosswalk. The signal is only activated when a pedestrian and/or bicyclist is present, resulting in minimal delay for motor vehicle traffic.

Lane Reconfigurations and Road Diets

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

Streets with excess roadway capacity or wider lanes often make excellent candidates for lane reconfigurations or road diet projects. The removal of a single travel lane will generally provide sufficient space for bike lanes on both sides of a street. Even if the width of the sidewalk does not increase, pedestrians benefit from the buffer that the new bike lanes create between the sidewalk and travel lanes. Although the actual roadway crossing distance has not been reduced, the addition of bike lanes reduces the number of vehicle travel lanes pedestrians must cross.

Typical Use »»

Depending on a street’s existing configuration, traffic operations, user needs, and comfort level, various lane reconfigurations may be appropriate.

»»

For instance, a four-lane street (with two travel lanes in each direction) could be modified to provide one travel lane in each direction, a center turn lane, and bike lanes.

»»

Prior to implementing this measure, a traffic analysis should identify potential impacts, including diversion to other parallel neighborhood streets. Road diets should also consider school, city bus, emergency service access, and other truck volumes.

Design Features »»

Narrower lanes generally encourage slower vehicle speeds, higher comfort for people walking and biking.

»»

Vehicle lane width: Width depends on project. No narrowing may be needed if a lane is removed. Lanes along transit and freight routes may need a minimum of 11 feet to accommodate larger vehicles.

»»

Bicycle lane width: Standard bicycle lane width is 5-6 feet. A buffered bike lane requires an additional 2-3 feet.

»»

Number of Lanes: Generally, 3 lanes with a center turn lane can support 20,000 vehicles per day.

Materials and Maintenance

Approximate Cost

Road configurations are often paired with the road repaving schedule to reduce costs. Repair rough or uneven pavement surface. Use bicycle compatible drainage grates, and ensure they are flush with the pavement.

Adding striped shoulders can cost as little as $1,000 per mile if old paint does not need to be removed. The cost for restriping a street to bike lanes or reducing the number of lanes to add on-street parking is approximately $11 per foot on street, depending on the number of lane lines to be removed. The approximate cost for restriping a roadway as depicted can range from $10,000-$60,000 per mile.

Bicycle Boulevards

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

A Bicycle Boulevard is a low-speed, low-volume roadway that has been modified, as needed, to enhance comfort and convenience for people bicycling. It provides better conditions for bicycling while maintaining the neighborhood character and neighborhood and emergency vehicle access. Bicycle Boulevards are intended to serve as the primary low-stress bikeway network, providing direct, and convenient routes across Santa Rosa. Key elements of Bicycle Boulevards are unique signage and pavement markings, traffic calming and diversion features to maintain low vehicle volumes, and convenient major street crossings.

Typical Use

Design Features

»»

Parallel with, and in close proximity to major thoroughfares (1/4 mile or less) on low-volume, low-speed streets.

»»

Signs and pavement markings are the minimum treatments necessary to designate a street as a bicycle boulevard.

»»

Follow a desire line for bicycle travel that is ideally long and relatively continuous (2-5 miles).

»»

Avoid alignments with excessive zigzag or circuitous routing. The bikeway should have less than 10% out of direction travel compared to shortest path of primary corridor.

Implement volume control treatments based on the context of the bicycle boulevard, using engineering judgment. Motor vehicle volumes should not exceed 1,500 vehicles per day.

»»

Intersection crossings should be designed to enhance comfort and minimize delay for bicyclists, following crossing treatment progression to achieve Level of Traffic Stress 1 or 2.

»»

Local streets with traffic volumes of fewer than 1,500 vehicles per day. Utilize traffic calming to maintain or establish low volumes and discourage vehicle cut through / speeding.

Bicycle Toolbox

Further Considerations »»

Bicycle boulevards are established on streets that improve connectivity to key destinations and provide a direct, low-stress route for bicyclists, with low motorized traffic volumes and speeds, designated and designed to give bicycle travel priority over other modes.

»»

Bicycle boulevard retrofits to local streets are typically located on streets without existing signalized accommodation at crossings of collector and arterial roadways. Without treatments for bicyclists, these intersections can become major barriers along the bicycle boulevard.

»»

Traffic calming can deter motorists from driving on a street. Anticipate and monitor vehicle volumes on adjacent streets to determine whether traffic calming results in inappropriate volumes. Traffic calming can be implemented on a trial basis.

Materials and Maintenance Bicycle boulevards require few additional maintenance requirements to local roadways. Signage, signals, and other traffic calming elements should be inspected and maintained according to local standards.

Approximate Cost Costs vary depending on the type of treatments proposed for the corridor. Simple treatments such as wayfinding signage and markings are most costeffective, but more intensive treatments will have greater impact at lowering speeds and volumes, at higher cost. Costs can range from $5,000/mile on the simple end to $50,000/mile for significant horizontal deflection and diversion.

Shared Lane Markings Shared Lane Marking (SLM) or “Sharrow” stencils are used in California as an additional treatment for Bike Route facilities and are currently approved in conjunction with on-street parking. The CA MUTCD approved pavement marking can serve a number of purposes, such as making motorists aware of the need to share the road with bicyclists, showing bicyclists the direction of travel, and, with proper placement, reminding bicyclists to bike further from parked cars to prevent collisions with drivers opening car doors.

CA MUTCD R4-11 (optional)

Typical Use »»

»»

Shared Lane Markings are not appropriate on paved shoulders or in bike lanes, and should not be used on roadways that have a posted speed greater than 35 mph. Shared Lane Markings should be implemented in conjunction with BIKES MAY USE FULL LANE signs.

Design Features »» Placement in the center of the travel lane is A preferred in constrained conditions.

»»

Markings should be placed immediately after intersections and spaced at 250 foot intervals thereafter.

»»

When placed adjacent to parking, markings should be outside of the “door zone”. Minimum placement is 11 feet from the curb face.

Bicycle Toolbox

Further Considerations »»

Consider modifications to signal timing to induce a bicycle-friendly travel speed for all users.

»»

Though not always possible, placing the markings outside of vehicle tire tracks will increase the life of the markings and the longterm cost of the treatment.

»»

A green thermoplastic background can be applied to further increase the visibility of the shared lane marking.

»»

A “Pass Bicycle 3 FT MIN” sign (R117(CA)) can be installed to indicate to drivers the required passing distance per California Vehicle Code section 21760.

Approximate Cost Sharrows typically cost $200 per each marker for a lane-mile cost of $4,200, assuming the CA MUTCD guidance of sharrow placement every 250 feet.

Materials and Maintenance »»

Shared lane markings should be inspected annually and maintained accordingly, especially if located on roadways that feature high vehicle turning movements, or bus, or truck traffic. They can be placed in the center of the lane of travel to reduce wear from vehicles.

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

Sharrows also serve as positional guidance and raise bicycle awareness where there isn’t space to accommodate a full-width bike lane. Center lane markings may or may not be necessary depending on travel lane widths. Narrower two way residential streets (less than 22 ft between parked cars) have a natural traffic calming effect without center turn lanes. Pictured above: sharrows on Sonoma Ave.

Bicycle Toolbox

Bicycle Lanes On-street bike lanes (Class II Bikeways) designate an exclusive space for bicyclists through the use of pavement markings and signs. The bike lane is located directly adjacent to motor vehicle travel lanes and is used in the same direction as motor vehicle traffic. Bike lanes are typically on the right side of the street, between the adjacent travel lane and curb, road edge or parking lane.

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

Further Considerations On high speed streets (≥ 40 mph) the minimum bike lane should be 6 feet. (HDM 301.2)

»»

It may be desirable to reduce the width of general purpose travel lanes in order to add or widen bicycle lanes. (HDM 301.2 3)

»»

On multi-lane streets, the most appropriate bicycle facility to provide for user comfort may be buffered bicycle lanes or physically separated bicycle lanes.

Manhole Covers and Grates: »»

Manhole surfaces should be manufactured with a shallow surface texture in the form of a tight, nonlinear pattern

»»

If manholes or other utility access boxes are to be located in bike lanes within 50 ft. of intersections or within 20 ft. of driveways or other bicycle access points, special manufactured permanent nonstick surfaces are required to ensure a controlled travel surface for cyclists breaking or turning.

»»

Manholes, drainage grates, or other obstacles should be set flush with the paved roadway. Roadway surface inconsistencies pose a threat to safe riding conditions for bicyclists. Construction of manholes, access panels or other drainage elements should be constructed with no variation in the surface. The maximum allowable tolerance in vertical roadway surface will be 1/4 of an inch.

A study of buffered bicycle lanes found that, in order to make the facilities successful, there needs to also be driver education, improved signage and proper pavement markings.1

»»

On multi-lane streets with high vehicles speeds, the most appropriate bicycle facility to provide for user comfort may be physically separated bike lanes. NCHRP Report #766 recommends, when space is limited, installing a buffer space between the parking lane and bicycle lane where on-street parking is permitted rather than between the bicycle lane and vehicle travel lane.2

Final Report” (2011).Urban Studies and Planning Faculty Publications and Presentations. 2 National Cooperative Highway Research Program. Report #766: Recommended Bicycle Lane Widths for Various Roadway Characteristics.

Bike lane striping and markings will require higher maintenance where vehicles frequently traverse over them at intersections, driveways, parking lanes, and along curved or constrained segments of roadway. Bike lanes should be maintained so that there are no pot holes, cracks, uneven surfaces or debris.

Approximate Cost The cost for installing buffered bicycle lanes will depend on the implementation approach. Typical costs are $16,000 per mile for restriping. However, the cost of large-scale bicycle treatments will vary greatly due to differences in project specifications and the scale and length of the treatment.

One-Way Separated Bikeway

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

One-way separated bikeways, also known as protected bikeways or cycle tracks, are on-street bikeway facilities that are separated from vehicle traffic. Physical separation is provided by a barrier between the bikeway and the vehicular travel lane. These barriers can include flexible posts, bollards, parking, planter strips, extruded curbs, or on-street parking. Separated bikeways using these barrier elements typically share the same elevation as adjacent travel lanes, but the bikeway could also be raised above street level, either below or equivalent to sidewalk level.

C A

Typical Use »»

»»

Along streets on which conventional bicycle lanes would cause many bicyclists to feel stress because of factors such as multiple lanes, high bicycle volumes, high motor traffic volumes (9,000-30,000 ADT), higher traffic speeds (25+ mph), high incidence of double parking, higher truck traffic (10% of total ADT) and high parking turnover. Along streets for which conflicts at intersections can be effectively mitigated using parking lane setbacks, bicycle markings through the intersection, and other signalized intersection treatments.

Design Features »A » Pavement markings, symbols and/or arrow markings must be placed at the beginning of the separated bikeway and at intervals along the facility based on engineering judgment to define the bike direction. (CA MUTCD 9C.04) »B » 7 foot width preferred in areas with high bicycle volumes or uphill sections to facilitate safe passing behavior (5 foot minimum).

Separated bikeway buffers and barriers are covered in the CAMUTCD as preferential lane markings (section 3D.01) and channelizing devices (section 3H.01). If the buffer area is 4 feet or wider, white chevron or diagonal markings should be used (section 9C.04). Curbs may be used as a channeling device, see the section on islands (section 3I.01). Grade-separation provides an enhanced level of separation in addition to buffers and other barrier types. Where possible, physical barriers such as removable curbs should be oriented towards the inside edge of the buffer to provide as much extra width as possible for bicycle use.

»»

A retrofit separated bikeway has a relatively low implementation cost compared to road reconstruction by making use of existing pavement and drainage and using a parking lane as a barrier.

»»

Gutters, drainage outlets and utility covers should be designed and configured as not to impact bicycle travel.

»»

For clarity at major or minor street crossings, consider a dotted line (CA MUTCD Detail 39A - Bike Lane Intersection Line) for the buffer boundary where cars are expected to cross.

»»

Special consideration should be given at transit stops to manage bicycle and pedestrian interactions.

Materials and Maintenance Bikeay striping and markings will require higher maintenance where vehicles frequently traverse over them at intersections, driveways, parking lanes, and along curved or constrained segments of roadway. Green conflict striping (if used) will also generally require higher maintenance due to vehicle wear. Bikeways should be maintained so that there are no pot holes, cracks, uneven surfaces or debris. Access points along the facility should be provided for street sweeper vehicles to enter/exit the separated bikeway,

Approximate Cost Separated bikeway construction costs can vary drastically depending on the type of separation used, the amount of new curb and gutter, stormwater mitigation, and crossing treatments. On the lower end of the scale, construction of a striped parking protected bikeway without delineators or other vertical elements can cost as little as $8,000-$16,000 per mile.

»»

Bicyclists typically need more time to travel through an intersection than motor vehicles. Green light times should be determined using the bicycle crossing time for standing bicycles. Bicycle detection and actuation systems include user-activated buttons mounted on a pole, loop detectors that trigger a change in the traffic signal when a bicycle is detected and video detection cameras, that use digital image processing to detect a change in the image at a location.

Bicycle signal detection equipment should be inspected and maintained regularly, especially if detection relies on manual actuation. Pushbuttons and loop detectors will tend to have higher maintenance needs than other passive detection equipment.

»»

Use colored pavement markings and/or shared line markings through conflict areas at intersections.

»»

If a raised bikeway is used, the height of the lane should be maintained through the crossing, requiring automobiles to cross over.

Bicycle Toolbox

»»

Motor vehicle traffic crossing the bikeway should be constrained or channelized to make turns at sharp angles to reduce travel speed prior to the crossing.

»»

Driveway crossings may be configured as raised crossings to slow turning cars and assert physical priority of travelling bicyclists.

»»

Motor vehicle stop bar on cross-streets and driveways is setback from the intersection to ensure that drivers slow down and scan for pedestrians and bicyclists before turning.

Further Considerations »»

Removing obstructions and providing clear sight distance at crossings increases visibility of bicyclists.

»»

Treatments designed to constrain and slow turning motor vehicle traffic will slow drivers to bicycle-compatible travel speeds prior to crossing the separated bikeway.

Materials and Maintenance Green conflict striping and markings, will require higher maintenance where vehicles frequently traverse over them at driveways and minor intersection. Green conflict striping (if used) will also generally require higher maintenance due to vehicle wear.

Approximate Cost The cost for installing high visibility colored crossing markings will depend on the materials selected and implementation approach. Typical costs range from $1.20/sq. ft. installed for paint to $14/sq. ft. installed for Thermoplastic. Colored pavement is more expensive than standard asphalt installation, costing 30-50% more than non-colored asphalt.

Separated Bikeways at Transit Side Boarding Islands A transit side boarding island is a channelized lane for bicyclists designed to provide a path for bicyclists to pass stopped transit vehicles, and clarify interactions between pedestrians, bicyclists, and passengers, boarding and alighting. This is particularly helpful on corridors with high volumes of transit vehicles and bicyclists, where “leapfrogging” may occur, and on separated bikeway corridors where maintaining physical separation is important to maintain user comfort.

E»» Pavement markings and signage should clarify expectations among users. The bikeway could also ramp up to sidewalk level at this crossing to reduce bicycle speeds and enhance ADA access to the stop.

F»» Pavement markings on the bikeway should

define the bicycle path of travel to minimize intrusion by pedestrians, except at designated crossings.

Further Considerations »»

Transit island should be wide enough to accommodate mobility devices. An 8’x5’ accessible clear space is required at the front door per ADA requirements.

»»

Transit platforms should feature pedestrian scale lighting.

»»

Side boarding island will require detectable warning surfaces along full length of platform if greater than 6” high.

Materials and Maintenance Similar to median refuge islands, side boarding islands may require frequent maintenance of road debris. If at street grade, the bikeway can be swept by street sweeper vehicles with narrow widths.

Approximate Cost The approximate cost of a side boarding island is similar to median refuge islands ranging from $500 to $1,100 per foot, or about $3,500 to $4,000, depending on the design, and site conditions. This cost is exclusive of transit shelters and amenities, landscaping, and lighting.

Bicycle Box A bicycle box is an experimental treatment, designed to provide bicyclists with a safe and visible space to get in front of queuing traffic during the red signal phase. Motor vehicles must queue behind the white stop line at the rear of the bike box. On a green signal, all bicyclists can quickly clear the intersection. This treatment is currently under experiment, and has not been approved by Caltrans.

Use of green colored pavement is recommended.

A bike box allows for cyclists to wait in front of queuing traffic, providing high visibility and a head start over motor vehicle traffic.

Further Considerations »»

This treatment positions bicycles together and on a green signal, all bicyclists can quickly clear the intersection, minimizing conflict and delay to transit or other traffic.

»»

Pedestrian also benefit from bike boxes, as they experience reduced vehicle encroachment into the crosswalk.

»»

Bike boxes are currently under experiment in California. Projects will be required to go through an official Request to Experiment process. This process is outlined in Section 1A.10 in the CAMUTCD, and jurisdictions must receive approval prior to implementation.

Materials and Maintenance Bike boxes are subject to high vehicle wear, especially turning passenger vehicles, buses, and heavy trucks. As a result, bike boxes with green coloring will require more frequent replacement over time. The life of the green coloring will depend on vehicle volumes and turning movements, but Thermoplastic is generally a more durable material than paint.

Approximate Cost Costs will vary due to the type of paint or thermoplastic used and the size of the bike box, as well as whether the treatment is added at the same time as other road treatments. Typical costs range from $1.20/sq. ft. installed for paint to $14/sq. ft. installed for Thermoplastic.

Further Considerations »»

Green colored pavement shall be used in compliance with FHWA Interim Approval (FHWA IA-14.10).1

»»

While other colors have been used (red, blue, yellow), green is the recommended color in the US.

»»

The application of green colored pavement within bicycle lanes is an emerging practice. The guidance recommended here is based on best practices in cities around the county.

Materials and Maintenance As intended, paint or thermoplastic are placed in locations that are trafficked by vehicles, and are subject to high vehicle wear. Colored pavement treatments will experience higher rates of wear at locations with higher turning vehicles, buses, and heavy trucks. At these locations, green coloring will require more frequent replacement over time. The life of the green coloring will depend on vehicle volumes and turning movements, but thermoplastic is generally a more durable material than paint.

Approximate Cost The cost for installing colored pavement markings will depend on the materials selected and implementation approach. Typical costs range from $1.20/sq. ft installed for paint to $14/sq. ft installed for thermoplastic. Colored pavement is more expensive than standard asphalt installation, costing 30-50 percent more than non-colored asphalt.

Mixed Use Toolbox

Shared Use Path Shared use paths are off-street facilities that can provide a desirable transportation and recreation connection for users of all skill levels who prefer separation from traffic. They often provide low-stress connections to local and regional attractions that may be difficult, or not be possible on the street network.

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

Typical Use »»

In abandoned rail corridors (commonly referred to as Rails-to-Trails or Rail-Trails.

»»

In active rail corridors, trails can be built adjacent to active railroads (referred to as Rails-with-Trails.

»»

In utility corridors, such as powerline and sewer corridors.

»»

In waterway corridors, such as along canals, drainage ditches, rivers, and creeks.

»»

Along roadways.

Design Features »A » 8 ft is the minimum width (with 2’ ft shoulders) allowed for a two-way bicycle path and is only recommended for low traffic situations. (Caltrans Design Manual) »»

10 ft is recommended in most situations and will be adequate for moderate to heavy use.

»»

12 ft is recommended for heavy use situations with high concentrations of multiple users. A separate track (5’ minimum) can be provided for pedestrian use.

Mixed Use Toolbox Lateral Clearance »»

A 2 ft or greater shoulder on both sides of the path should be provided. An additional ft of lateral clearance (total of 3’) is required by the MUTCD for the installation of signage or other furnishings.

»»

If bollards are used at intersections and access points, they should be colored brightly and/or supplemented with reflective materials to be visible at night.

Overhead Clearance

Striping »»

When striping is required, use a 4 inch dashed yellow centerline stripe with 4 inch solid white edge lines.

»»

Solid centerlines can be provided on tight or blind corners, and on the approaches to roadway crossings.

Further Considerations »»

The provision of a shared use path adjacent to a road is not a substitute for the provision of onroad accommodation such as paved shoulders or bike lanes, but may be considered in some locations in addition to on-road bicycle facilities.

»»

To reduce potential conflicts in some situations, it may be better to place one-way sidepaths on both sides of the street.

»»

The design of the trail should conform to Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles. CPTED is a framework that encourages intuitive visual cues to guide path users, increase the visibility of the corridor and adjacent landmarks and properties, careful design that indicates active use and upkeep, and manages conflicting uses, and regular maintenance to prevent improper or illegal uses.

Prince Memorial Greenway connects users to downtown Santa Rosa Source: Peter Stetson.

Materials and Maintenance Shared use paths must be regularly maintained so that they are free of potholes, cracks, root lift, and debris. Signage and lighting should also be regularly maintained to ensure shared use path users feel comfortable, especially where visibility is limited. Adjacent landscaping should be regularly pruned, to allow adequate sightlines, daylight, and pedestrianscale lighting, and so as not to obstruct the path of travel of trail users.

Approximate Cost The cost of a shared use path can vary, but typical costs are between $65,000 per mile to $4 million per mile. These costs vary with materials, such as asphalt, concrete, boardwalk and other paving materials, lighting, and ROW acquisition.

Sidepath Design

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

A sidepath is a bidirectional shared use path located immediately adjacent and parallel to a roadway. Sidepaths can offer a high-quality experience for users of all ages and abilities.

Typical Use Sidepaths should be considered where one or more of the following conditions exist: »»

The adjacent roadway has relatively high volume and/or high-speed motor vehicle traffic that might discourage many people bicycling from riding on the roadway to achieve the targeted low stress. Sidepaths do not preclude the installation or maintenance of existing bike lanes.

»»

Along corridors with few intersections with minor streets and driveways.

»»

To provide continuity between existing segments of shared use paths.

»»

For use near schools, neighborhoods, and mixed use commercial areas, where increased separation from motor vehicles is desired, and there are few roadway and driveway crossings.

Design Features »»

Sidepaths shall be designed to meet transportation standards as defined by AASHTO, PROWAG, and MUTCD.

»»

Materials: Asphalt is the standard paving material for sidepaths.

»»

Minimum Width: Minimum width of a sidepath is 10’. Where user volumes are high, additional width, as well as parallel facilities such as bike lanes and sidewalk can provide needed space.

»»

Roadway Separation: The preferred minimum roadway separation width is 6.5 - 16.5’ (Schepers, 2011). Absolute minimum separation width of 5’ (AASHTO Bike Guide 2012, p. 5-11).

»»

Roadway Separation: Separation from roadway traffic is an essential design feature of sidepaths. Separation should increase as volumes and speed of adjacent roadway increase (AASHTO Bike Guide 2012, p. 5-11).

Mixed Use Toolbox

»»

Horizontal Clearance: A lateral clearance to landscaping, street furnishings and signs is required. MUTCD identifies minimum clearance. Signs and other street furniture should be placed outside of the minimum path width.

»»

Vertical Clearance: Standard clearance to overhead obstructions is 10’.

»»

Cross Slope and Running Slope: As sidepaths are typically located within public rights of way, their designs are governed by ADA guidelines.

Further Considerations »»

»»

Sight Lines: It is important to keep approaches to intersections and major driveways clear of obstructions due to parked vehicles, shrubs, and signs on public or private property. Corner radii at driveways and minor streets should be minimized to facilitate vehicle turning speeds of 10-15 mph.

Materials and Maintenance Like shared use paths, Sidepaths must be regularly maintained so that they are free of potholes, cracks, root lift, and debris. Signage and lighting should also be regularly maintained to ensure sidepath users feel comfortable, especially in areas where visibility is limited. Adjacent landscaping should be regularly pruned, to allow adequate sightlines along the path and at minor street crossings and driveways, allow for daylight, and pedestrian-scale lighting, and so as not to obstruct the path of travel of trail users.

Approximate Cost The cost of a sidepath can vary, but typical costs are similar to shared use paths between $65,000 per mile to $4 million per mile. These costs vary with materials, such as asphalt, concrete, boardwalk, and other paving materials, and ROW acquisition.

CITY OF SANTA ROSA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITY GUIDELINES

A sidepath provides a continuous path of travel along roadway corridors with few driveways or intersections. Depending on the anticipated volumes and context, the sidepath can be constructed in lieu of sidewalk and/or bike lanes. Oftentimes, anticipated volumes, mix of skills, or other factors such as route continuity will also be considered in the decision to also include bike lanes and sidewalks.
