NORTHERN EL CAMINO REAL NO-FRONTAGEROAD

Zone

PHASE 1 (If Needed)

Lane Widths

The first phase of the northern zone without frontage roads maintains an even 12’ through-lanes in both directions and a widened 12’ turn-lane in the Northbound direction from the existing 11’.

On-Street Parking and CurbLane

In order to provide a bike lane in each direction while maintaining three travel lanes, left-turn lanes, and a median refuge for pedestrians, on-street parking must be eliminated from both sides of the street. A parking-management plan should be developed to analyze impacts and determine mitigations.

Bicycle Facilities

A 5’-wide Class II bike lane with a 2’ buffer is added to both directions.

Median

The median is maintained in its current location, however the 6’-wide median is extended to provide a pedestrian refuge at the crosswalks. The median could be reconstructed during Phase 1 or Phase 2.

Street Trees

Existing large trees in the median could be protected and additional median trees would be planted.

Bus Stop Configuration

In Phase 1, bus stops are within the sidewalks such that the bus crosses into the bike lanes to load and unload.
