PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce Contents 2 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications Background In 2009, the PACTS Regional Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan Update recommended a “Regional Bicycle Route and Wayfinding Destination/ Signage” project as one of its top four cost- and time- effective regional improvements. The project was described as a relatively low-cost way to potentially increase bicycle tourism within the region and was envisioned as involving two primary tasks:

1. Identification of quality, longer distance bicycle routes linking key destinations within the PACTS region. Routes would combine on-road bikeway facilities and pathways that would meet the needs of moderately skilled cyclists.

2. Development of bicycle-specific wayfinding and destination signage. Potential pilot routes that were initially envisioned included the Eastern Trail from Biddeford to Portland and Portland to Freeport or Brunswick.

This effort progresses the work of the 2009 PACTS Regional Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan Update recommendations through preliminary schematic design. The Portland Area Comprehensive Transportation System (PACTS), as the federally designated Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the Portland, Maine urbanized area, funded this Plan for Regional Bicycle Wayfinding, which was carried out in three phases. A consultant team of Woodworth Associates and Wright-Pierce was hired in February of 2013 to study the southern coastal area (largely east of I-95) in the communities of Biddeford, Saco, Old Orchard Beach, Scarborough, Cape Elizabeth, South Portland, and Portland. The second phase began in October of 2013, and included Falmouth, Cumberland, North Yarmouth, Yarmouth and Freeport. The final, third phase began in early of 2014, and included Portland to Westbrook, Windham, Gorham, Standish, and Raymond.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 3 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications Reasons for Bicycle Wayfinding Reasons for implementing a regional bicycle wayfinding system:

Signage is a relatively low-cost way to reinforce and define the regional bicycle network

A regional bicycle wayfinding system would advertise the existence of the bicycle network to:

Local cyclists and/or potential local cyclists Touring cyclists and/or visitors who might see the signs and plan a future bike trip Motorists, to whom the signage system communicates that they are sharing the right-of-way with cyclists

Signs are one of the first and most A regional bicycle wayfinding system has the potential to boost eco-tourism and promote economic development important forms of communication within the PACTS region between a region and the visitors who use its transportation network. The A regional bicycle wayfinding system that incorporates local or regional branding has the potential to contribute overall quality and comprehensiveness of the bicycle wayfinding and signage to a sense of place and to promote the locality or region as a destination program and its ability to inform, guide, direct, and orient visitors between A regional bicycle wayfinding system can improve the safety of cyclists by giving them a better sense of their bicycle routes and significant location and aiding with lane position destinations is therefore of utmost importance. The existence of a clearly identified regional bicycle route system could be marketed to potential visitors. Cyclists are already visiting As such, this is an opportunity to Maine from other states and countries to cycle on U.S. Bicycle Route 1 (USBR1) and the East Coast Greenway (ECG). These visitors’ strengthen and reinforce the regional dreams of a premier touring experience are thwarted when the existing signage system lets them down. This is bad for the touring cyclist, brand. Signs that strive to meet the and it is also bad for the region. A happy visitor is a repeat visitor, and we should be doing all we can to ensure that the use of these needs of visiting cyclists by promoting bicycle routes is as frictionless, safe, and enjoyable as possible. ease of navigation, access, and safety will create a positive impression of a well-managed region and instill Bicycle routes in the PACTS region can be confusing. The PACTS region contains two national bicycle routes, the in-progress ECG, a sense of security, purpose, confidence, a developing off-road trail system, and USBR1, an on-and off-road national bicycle route. Both national bicycle routes extend along the and ultimately, community pride. Eastern seaboard to the Canadian border and Key West, Florida. The East Coast Greenway is comprised of three completed sections of the Eastern Trail in the communities of Biddeford, Saco, Old Orchard Beach, Scarborough, and South Portland, joined by interim on-road routes, where the trail has not yet been constructed. In some areas of the region, USBR1 follows on-road routes that are different from the ECG on-road interim routes. In other areas, USBR1 follows on-road routes that are the same as the ECG on-road interim routes. Finally, there are places where USBR1 is off-road on sections of the East Coast Greenway that have been constructed as shared use paths. To add another layer of complexity, the East Coast Greenway uses shared use paths that are built and maintained by other entities, for example, the Eastern Trail Alliance and Portland Trails in the southern part of the PACTS region. Each sponsoring group has its own signage vocabulary and unique names for its trails. Finally, there are reports of visiting cyclists mistaking vehicular U.S. Route 1 for USBR1, an unfortunate circumstance that could be remedied by better bicycle wayfinding support.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 4 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications Study Purpose The intent of this regional bicycle wayfinding study is threefold:

1. To provide a consistent and repetitive information path for the cycling public to find major destinations within the area served by PACTS

2. To identify longer-distance regional bicycle routes linking key destinations within the PACTS region to the East Coast Greenway, U.S. Bicycle Route 1, the Sebago to the Sea route and the Mountain Division Trail

3. To coordinate regional bicycle wayfinding with PACTS’ local wayfinding plans in downtown Biddeford-Saco and the Portland Peninsula and with MaineDOT’s plans for signing U.S. Bike Route 1

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 5 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications Study Background – Two national bicycle routes, the East Coast Greenway (ECG) and U.S. Bicycle Route 1, traverse the PACTS region, connecting it in a National and Regional Bicycle Routes northerly direction to the Canadian border, and southerly along the Eastern Seaboard to Key West, Florida.

East Coast Greenway The East Coast Greenway, a developing urban trail system, will ultimately create a 3,000 mile off-road route stretching from Key West, Florida to Calais, Maine. At this time, in the southern PACTS region, the East Coast Greenway is comprised of three completed sections of the Eastern Trail in Biddeford, Saco, Old Orchard Beach, Scarborough, and South Portland, joined by interim on-road routes. The Eastern Trail’s northern terminus is in Bug Light Park at the end of the South Portland Greenbelt in South Portland, while the East Coast Greenway continues north on-road along Portland’s waterfront or via water taxi until joining Portland’s Eastern Prom Trail. From there, the East Coast Greenway predominantly follows an interim on-road route until it reaches the northern end of Brunswick, with short completed off-road sections on the Beth Condon Memorial Pathway and Extension in Yarmouth, and the Androscoggin River Bicycle Path in Brunswick.

Eastern Trail The Eastern Trail is open for non-motorized uses, including hiking, walking, and bicycling. While the completed Eastern Trail sections are well-marked and easy to identify, the interim routes are confusing and require better signage to help travelers find their way between the completed trail segments. Official trailheads occur in these locations:

Saco – a kiosk near the Hannaford Grocery Store at the intersection of the ramp from Exit 2A off 195 E and Main Street/Route 5 Biddeford – a kiosk behind Southern Maine Medical Center off West Cole Road Scarborough – a kiosk at the western end of Eastern Road off Black Point Road South Portland – a kiosk set in from roadway, behind the Wainright Sports Complex South Portland – a kiosk on Broadway at Waterman Drive

Other locations where the Eastern Trail is intersected by a roadway or regional bicycle route, without a trailhead kiosk, include:

Saco – the Thornton Academy entrance on Clark Street Old Orchard Beach – the northern end of Pond View Road (per trails group) Scarborough – Pine Point Road South Portland – the west end of Gary L. Maietta Way South Portland – Broadway near Evans Street South Portland – Ocean Street South Portland – Cottage Road South Portland – multiple local road intersections in Pleasantdale and Ferry Village, including a short on-road section in Pleasantdale

The 2012-13 study expanded wayfinding to allow more visitors to access more businesses, services and cultural destinations while enjoying a better travel experience peninsula-wide. The 2012-13 plan was targeted at vehicles (automotive and bicycle) in addition to pedestrians. An integrated system of districts, attractions and signage enhanced marketing efforts to promote districts as well as individual destinations for the benefit of all.

Saco-BiddefordWayfinding Study SAC IDF RD BIDDEF In 2011, PACTS funded the development of a clear and cohesive wayfinding and signage plan for the cities of Saco and Biddeford, whose downtowns are connected by the Saco River. The co-branded signage, with careful consideration of the most frequented destinations, BIDDEFORD SACO signals to travelers that wayfinding in Saco and Biddeford has been thoughtfully considered. The wayfinding system indicates that destinations exist and should be visited, and that exploring the downtowns and neighborhoods will reveal a place in Maine that is unique. Some early notable issues: While motorized cars, trucks, and buses represent the majority of the trips within and external to the two communities, the wayfinding plan supports the walkable urban cores of both communities. The plan includes signage specific to bicyclists and pedestrians where it benefits the most users and integrates the efforts of this Regional Bicycle Wayfinding Study.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 8 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications North Portland Regional Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan The five communities in the North portion of the region served by PACTS have formed a sub-regional bicycle and pedestrian Public Advisory Committee (PAC) to look at creating an integrated bicycle and pedestrian system that crosses town lines. In the fall and winter of 2013, PACTS conducted a study in this sub-region to create an updated inventory of bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure and identify and prioritize a list of short-term and long-term action items that could improve regional connections between the communities of Cumberland, Yarmouth, North Yarmouth, Falmouth and Freeport.

In November of 2013, PACTS hosted a five-day series of tours and round-table discussions, spending a day in each of the five PAC communities. The five-day series concluded with a regional workshop involving representatives from each of the communities. Attendees of a follow-up meeting held on December 17th, 2013 were presented with an overview of the draft bicycle and pedestrian plan for the North Subregion, as well as an introduction to the PACTS Regional Bicycle Wayfinding Study.

The outcome of the Portland North Bicycle and Pedestrian planning process was used to preliminarily identify potential bicycle routes to include in the signed regional bicycle wayfinding system. After review with the stakeholder communities, the routes were revised to better reflect biking conditions and desire lines through the communities.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 9 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications Scope of Work Planning - Research, Analysis, and Programming A. Client Project Team: Prior to the first project meeting, a Client Project Team was formed under the leadership of PACTS and representatives from each city/community. The team included appropriate “stakeholder” representatives from each city, local trail organizations, MaineDOT, and the East Coast Greenway (ECG).

The Client Project Team was convened at a stakeholder meeting to refine the definitive list of destinations for inclusion in the wayfinding scope. Bicycle routes to be included in the system were reviewed and discussed, as were coordination with local wayfinding programs, timing with respect to interim routes and trail development, coordination with local trail sponsors, and administration of the signage system. Most critically, the Client Project Team reviewed and came to an agreement on project goals and objectives for wayfinding and signage. The study largely relied on existing mapping provided by PACTS, the municipalities, and MaineDOT, which was updated by the consultants to accurately reflect current and future trails, interim routes, and kiosk locations.

B. Research: The starting point for research was a review of any and all relevant documents including research, maps, site plans, existing traffic studies & analyses, planning and strategic studies, municipal design guidelines, ECG and USBR1 signage guidelines, bicycle and pedestrian master plans, etc., prepared by and for the MaineDOT, PACTS and the communities. Research results helped to inform the development of a wayfinding strategy.

C. Image Gathering: A photographic inventory of existing signs and site conditions at possible bicyclist decision and confirmation points along the designated ECG and USBR1 routes was conducted, including on-and off-road trails and interim routes. In addition, a photographic inventory was conducted of existing signs and site conditions at possible bicyclist decision and confirmation points from the designated ECG and USBR1 routes to the destinations from Freeport to Saco approved by the Client Project Team.

D. Map Research: Woodworth Associates and Wright-Pierce correlated the site images and inventory of existing regional bicycle route signs with GIS maps of the project area to identify preliminary bicycle routes to specified destinations, and to analyze and identify entry nodes, decision points, confirmation points, and destinations as they relate to bicycle wayfinding to and from the ECG and USBR1.

E. Code Compliance and Permitting: Woodworth Associates and Wright-Pierce researched federal and state signage regulations and guidelines, coordinating all work with MaineDOT, PACTS, and the member communities. This item of the work involved extensive discussion with MaineDOT regarding its willingness to apply for a request to experiment form FHWA to allow use of a new destination sign type to be used at national, state, and regional decision points throughout Maine.

F. Programming: Routing of transportation modes based upon origin/destination information and transportation system conditions was identified. The consultants worked with PACTS to evaluate travel distance, time, area characteristics, and safety (areas where no bicycle facility is present, for example, that should be avoided or corrected). They generated a preliminary sign location plan for all bicycle signs based on the wayfinding needs of macro and micro destinations within the Freeport to Saco corridor.

This master map integrated circulation systems – vehicular, pedestrian, and bicycle – with the framework of the bicycle corridor destinations, proposing a hierarchy of decision points, confirmation points, and destinations by identifying appropriate locations for wayfinding and signage elements.

Preliminary concepts were developed for each sign type (Identification Signs (route/trail names, route/trail markers), Directional Signs (trail blazers), and Destination Signs), including design alternatives, content (messages & symbols), typography, color, materials, contextual views, revised location plans, and preliminary construction/information. Branding and identification options were also developed. The preliminary schematic materials were presented to the Client Project Team.

Input from this meeting was used to help define the scope of the project for the Southern Coastal Maine area and identify potential questions for clarification.

Questionnaire Stakeholders A questionnaire was developed and e-mailed to stakeholders to solicit input prior to the stakeholder meeting. The questionnaire asked The study included input from and what types of destinations and routes should be included in the system, and who the anticipated users of the system might be. There coordination with the following: were thirteen respondents, representing eleven communities. The results of the questionnaire were used to develop preliminary routes and destinations for each community, and to identify conflicting opinions and attitudes that could be discussed by stakeholders, with the PACTS aim of arriving at a consensus about the wayfinding strategy, at the meeting. Please see Appendix for the questionnaire and a table GPCOG summarizing its results.

To understand what regional groups have begun their own signage programs and determine what was the appropriate level of Bike-ped committee members from involvement from PACTS. the member communities

Non-profit trails and land trust staff 2. To review preliminary mapping of destinations and routes with member communities based on the results of the PACTS survey in the member communities and field visits.

MaineDOT Following a round of introductions, information was provided regarding the project background, project area and future project phases. An overview was given regarding the East Coast Greenway and USBR1, followed by an update on DOT’s signage program for USBR1, and a review of the project process. The goals of the project, and criteria for routes and destinations were reviewed and confirmed. The questionnaire results and preliminary mapping of destinations, routes, and decision points were reviewed and comments noted. Problem intersections were discussed and identified. Draft sign types were reviewed and confirmed. The project team introduced the idea of developing a regional brand, but the member communities preferred incorporating municipal identity into the signage program, if any branding were to be included. Consistency between state, regional, and local criteria for route designation and signage were identified as a concern.

Following the meeting, additional communication and follow-up took place with most of the communities within the Southern Coastal Subregion to further discuss potential bicycle routes and destinations. Because Biddeford, Old Orchard Beach, and Portland Trails were

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 12 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications not represented at the stakeholder meeting, additional correspondence took place with those communities, including individual meetings with Biddeford and Portland Trails, in addition to e-mails and phone calls.

MaineDOT/ECG Meetings Starting in March of 2013, three meetings were held at PACTS to bring representatives of MaineDOT and the East Coast Greenway together to gain a better understanding of the scope of MaineDOT’s signage program for USBR1, to coordinate it with signage for the East Coast Greenway, and to coordinate the work of both entities with the PACTS regional bicycle wayfinding program. Representatives from some member communities, as well as bicycling and walking advocacy groups were also invited to attend. These meetings were also used as an opportunity to provide progress reports to PACTS, and to participate in a conference call with groups in other states who have experience signing national bicycle routes. As a result of these meetings, it was determined that the PACTS program could work on destination signage on USBR1, the ECG and the regional routes, sign types were discussed and refined, a Maine-specific destination sign type was developed, and families of sign types were developed for use on on-road and off-road national bicycle routes as well as for use on on-road and off-road state and regional bicycle routes within Maine.

On August 13, 2013, the materials were presented to the Pedestrian and Bicycle Statewide Council Meeting held at MaineDOT in Augusta.

On September 25, 2013, the materials were presented to the MPO Quarterly Meeting held at MaineDOT in Augusta.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 13 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications North Subregion - Phase 2

Questionnaire The communities of Cumberland, Yarmouth, Falmouth and Freeport responded to the questionnaire that was first circulated by PACTS in April of 2013, in conjunction with Phase 1 of the Regional Bicycle Wayfinding Study. In November of 2013, the questionnaire was completed by North Yarmouth and the results were added to the table. North Yarmouth’s input generally supported and confirmed the results of the prior survey.

MaineDOT Review and Coordination After the State Bicycle and Pedestrian Council meeting in August of 2013, edits were made to the on-road bicycle destination sign and a revised version was resubmitted to MaineDOT for review. Guidance was sought from MaineDOT on their endorsement of the sign palette for bicycle guide signage that had been developed to date, on whether they believed any of the signs would require permission to experiment from FHWA, and on whether MaineDOT would pay for the fabrication and installation of any or all of the USBR1 and ECG markers on shared use paths and in on-road locations.

Responses received from MaineDOT can be summarized as follows:

• An “interpretation ruling” might be needed from FHWA for the on-road destination sign and the “Explore Maine by Bike” route marker. No permission from FHWA was seen as necessary for the shared use path version of the destination sign.

• The State would pay for USBR1 markers on shared use paths. The State would only pay for the ECG plaques if there were funds remaining in the budget after other signs had been installed.

• MaineDOT would be able to manufacture the PACTS bicycle destination signs in its sign shop, and could probably pay for those destination signs and USBR1 markers that were located on USBR1.

• A question was raised regarding whether municipalities can place local signs on state roads, and whether state forces can place state signs on local roads.

On December 31, 2013, MaineDOT responded in writing to the proposed on-road destination sign design. The text of the e-mail indicated that PACTS’ proposed bicycle route and destination signs, with minor changes to the destination signs, would be used as the standard for Maine, but stated, however, that the destination signs should use a font size that meets MUTCD and is easily read by motorists. A larger font size would constitute more than a minor adjustment to the proposed sign, resulting in a sign with larger overall dimensions than the original proposal. Subsequently, in early February of 2014, PACTS sent a letter to MaineDOT responding to the request to use a font size that “meets MUTCD.” Reasons for using the font size originally proposed, rather than a larger font oriented to motorists, are included in the letter, which can be found in the Appendix.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 14 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications Stakeholder Meeting On January 21th, 2014, a North subregion stakeholder meeting was held at the Yarmouth Log Cabin.

The meeting had five primary objectives:

1. To review preliminary mapping of destinations and routes with member communities based on the results of the questionnaire, a review of the draft Portland North Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan, and field visits. 2. To review sign placement guidelines for signing routes at intersections in a variety of route conditions. 3. To review the on-road destination signs that had been re-designed to incorporate MaineDOT’s feedback from December, 2013. 4. To review the shared use path destination signs developed since the May, 2013 Stakeholder Meeting. 5. To identify decision points to potentially receive more detailed diagramming in the preliminary design report.

Following attendee introductions, information was provided regarding the project background, project area, and project phases. An overview of East Coast Greenway and USBR1 routing was followed by an update on DOT’s signage program for USBR1, and a review of the PACTS Bicycle Wayfinding project process. The goals of the project, and criteria for routes and destinations, as informed by the questionnaire results, were reviewed and confirmed. Preliminary mapping of destinations, routes, and decision points was reviewed and stakeholder comments were noted on the draft maps.

A significant portion of the discussion concerned the revisions that had been made to the design of the on-road destination sign. Some attendees thought the overall dimensions of the revised sign were too large, and were further concerned that the revised sign would not be compatible with municipal streetscapes in village areas. These attendees asked whether the sign could be made smaller.

A revised map and list of destinations was shared with the communities for review and comment in March of 2013. Additional comments on bicycle routes and destinations were received from several of the communities within the subregion, and were incorporated into the final preliminary mapping.

State Bicycle and Pedestrian Council Meeting In December of 2013, PACTS ordered the production of a facsimile on-road bicycle destination sign, consistent with the design recommended by this study as it progressed through design development. The prototype captured the look and feel of the materials that would be used for the final sign, as well as the general design intent, though a few details, such as arrow placement and final color, were still to be resolved. This prototype on-road sign and the shared use path version of the bicycle destination sign were presented to a meeting of the State Bicycle and Pedestrian Council at MaineDOT on February, 11, 2014. The following feedback was obtained from meeting attendees, who included representatives from the Safe Routes to School program, PACTS, the Federal Highway Administration, the East Coast Greenway, the National Park Service, the Androscoggin Land Trust, and others.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 15 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications Shared Use Path Sign Responses were generally favorable to the proposed design. Questions were raised regarding sign clearances adjacent to shared use paths, sign color alternatives, and how the sign would be designed if the trail had no sponsor.

On-Road Sign Two versions of the proposed on-road destination sign were presented to the group.

1. The first was the manufactured prototype sign, featuring a 2.5” font height.

2. The second featured a 4” font height and incorporated the State Bicycle and Pedestrian Council’s comments regarding arrow style and placement from a meeting in August of 2013 meeting, as well as MUTCD colors.

Comments overwhelmingly favored the 2.5” font version of the sign over the 4” font version of the sign created in response to DOT’s comments. Some of those in attendance suggested that use of the different sign sizes could depend on the roadway type and land use context. Another question was raised regarding rural locations where wayfinding might be desired for motorists and cyclists. The question centered on whether it would be better to have a single larger sign addressed to both cyclists and motorists in those locations, or a separate, larger, sign for cars with a smaller sign for cyclists.

Other questions were similar to those regarding the shared use path sign, including what color options might be available and how the sign would be altered if no Town name were to be included at the top.

The representative from FHWA confirmed that the sign design met MUTCD’s requirements.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 16 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications West Subregion - Phase 3

Questionnaire Fourteen respondents from twelve PACTS Communities in the South and North subregions responded to the questionnaire that was first circulated by PACTS in April of 2013, in conjunction with Phase 1 of the Regional Bicycle Wayfinding Study. Because the questionnaire had primarily been used to confirm the study’s definitions of destinations and routes, for this phase, a different approach was taken. A preliminary list of routes and destinations was sent to municipal staff and bicycling advocates for each community, accompanied by the accompa- nying criteria that had been developed as part of Phase 1 of this study. This allowed for direct engagement with each community regarding routes and destinations in advance of the stakeholder meeting – especially helpful since some of the communities were new to the PACTS region and had not previously been the subject of regional bicycle and pedestrian studies.

Comments on the project team’s initial draft list of routes and destinations were received from all participating communities. Municipal staff weighed in for Portland, Standish, Windham, and Raymond, and bicycling advocates commented on the draft routes and destinations in Gorham and Westbrook. Comments were also received from the Casco Bay Bicycle Club.

Portland was included as part of this final phase of work to allow further analysis of off-peninsula routes through the City.

Windshield Survey For the South and North subregions, the project team conducted a windshield survey of routes and destinations prior to each stakeholder meeting. Given the larger physical extent of this subregion, after a map was prepared that incorporated comments received via e-mail from the communities, two windshield surveys were conducted. The first primarily covered north Portland, Windham, Raymond, north West- brook, and east Standish, and the second included west Portland, Westbrook, Standish, and Gorham. Although not every route was able to be driven, much of the area was reviewed during the first two drives. The third windshield survey took place near the conclusion of the planning process to cover Broadturn Road, Gorham Road, Western Ave, and County Road in Scarborough, southern Gorham, and South Portland. This area was added to the West phase to knit the West and South subregional bicycle networks into one coherent system.

MaineDOT Review and Coordination In late August of 2014, MaineDOT published a palette of approved bicycle wayfinding signs to their website. Two options for bicycle destination signs were included that were similar to the signs developed for this PACTS effort, but that differed in overall size and font.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 17 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications Stakeholder Meeting On July 14th, 2014, a West subregion stakeholder meeting was held at the Westbrook City Hall.

The meeting had five primary objectives:

1. To review preliminary mapping of destinations and routes with member communities based on the results of the initial PACTS e-mail survey and field visits.

2. To review the signs developed since the January, 2014 PACTS North Stakeholder Meeting.

3. To identify decision points to potentially receive more detailed diagramming in the preliminary design report.

Following attendee introductions, information was presented regarding the project background, project area, and project phases. An overview of the Sebago to the Sea and Mountain Division Trail routing was followed by an update on DOT’s signage program for USBR1, and a review of the PACTS Bicycle Wayfinding project process to date. The current family of bicycle wayfinding signs was reviewed, and observations were shared from the July, 2014 test installation of bicycle wayfinding signage at the intersection of Black Point Road and Highland Avenue in Scarborough. The goals of the project, and criteria for routes and destinations, as informed by the prior questionnaire results, were also reviewed. A brief overview of the Federal Functional Classifications for roadways was given, to help set the stage for discussion of the preponderance of arterial roadways that constitute bicycle routes in this region – something that differentiates it from the South and North subregions. Then, preliminary mapping of destinations, routes, and decision points was reviewed with attendees, specific questions were addressed to each community, and stakeholder comments were noted on the draft maps.

Much of the afternoon’s discussion concerned selecting between two parallel routes to a destination. Characteristic to this subregion, a busy arterial with wide paved shoulder offered a more direct route, but a local or collector road (or combination of roads) with lower traffic volumes and narrow or no shoulders might offer a less direct, but quieter alternative.

A revised map and list of destinations was shared with the communities for review and comment in August of 2013. Additional comments on bicycle routes and destinations were received from Portland, Gorham, and Raymond, and were incorporated into the final preliminary mapping.

Width precedes height. © 2013 Woodworth Associates Following comments received from MaineDOT during this phase of the study, it was determined that the D11-1 will be used alone as confirmation and in conjunction with an arrow plaque as a turn sign on regional routes, but it does not need to be used at intersection locations where it occurs directly after a bike destination sign, before an intersection on a regional route. In these locations, the destination signs will reinforce the presence of a bike route, and the D11-1 could be redundant. Confirmation signs such as the D11-1 and M1-9 (green & white) should still be provided after turns. The M1-9 (green and white) will be used in conjunction with bike destination signs on regional routes, at intersections with USBR1. In this way, the M1-9 signage would let a cyclist on the regional route know that if she turns, she will join the national bike route. It is recommended that the M1-9 sign be mounted above the destination sign, for the purpose of meeting required clearances.

Upon reaching out to DOTs in states with approved national bike routes, several responses indicated that it would be appropriate to use USBR1 signing in advance of an intersection with the US Bicycle Route. This could be accomplished, for example, by substituting M1-8 and M1-9 signs for the signs shown in figure 2D-6 of the 2009 MUTCD, and adjusting distances to reflect a lower approach speed (typically 1/2 to 1/3 those shown in the figure).

Turn signs should be used in advance of key bike route intersections, unexpected changes in route direction, or in advance of difficult turns. These can be co-located with confirmation and destination signs. Advance route turn assemblies are recommended for left turns when the speed of a road is 45 mph or higher, at a distance of 200 feet in advance of the turn (or more if on a steep hill).

Confirmation signs should be used at a ½ mile to 1 mile interval on identified bike routes and shared use paths in urban and suburban areas, where site conditions warrant and soon after (50-100 feet beyond the far shoulder or curb line) intersections and turns in the route. In rural areas, where road intersections are less frequent, this distance can be increased to 3-5 miles. Consistent use of confirmation signs will be helpful to people entering identified routes from side streets. In some locations, the presence of decision points or turn signs may make confirmation signs unnecessary. Confirmation signs should not be used within 200 ft. of a regulatory, turn, or decision sign.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 20 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications Destination Signs (for Decision Points) Destination signage should be used at decision points, as determined by the following criteria:

Where a roadway that is part of a national, state, and/or regional bicycle route crosses another roadway that is also part of a national, state, and/or regional bicycle route, a sign should include destination, direction, and distance information for cyclists.

Where a shared use path that is part of a national, state, and/or regional bicycle route crosses a roadway, a sign should identify the roadway by name and, where the roadway is part of an on-road national, state, and/or

regional bicycle route, a sign should include destination, direction, and distance information for cyclists.

Where a shared use path that is part of a national, state, and/or regional bicycle route crosses another shared use path or trail, a sign should identify the shared use path or trail by name and, where the intersecting shared use path is part of a national, state, and/or regional bicycle route, a sign should include destination, direction, and distance information for cyclists. 1 @ size: 42” x 43.5”

PACTS Test Intersection-Vector 5.28.14.indd 1 5/28/14 10:49 AM Destination signs should be located 30'- 100' from the intersection.

Prototype destination signs to be used on on-road and on shared use paths on national, state, and regional bicycle routes were also vetted during this process through the meetings attended by representatives of PACTS, the East Coast Greenway, MaineDOT, and local trails advocates. See Appendix for a palette of approved destination signs for on-road routes and shared use paths.

The on-road destination sign design resembles the bicycle guide signs included in MUTCD, but varies from them in some significant ways. Differences include:

Inclusion of municipal or regional branding at the top of the sign Inclusion of a riderless bicycle at the top of the sign Use of Clearview font

MaineDOT has expressed that it is open to more flexibility (i.e. development of non-MUTCD signage options) on bike wayfinding signage in the urban compacts, but would like to see more standardization for state roads not in urban compact areas. Destination Sign

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 21 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications FHWA had previously deemed a bicycle destination sign proposal from Louisville, Kentucky to be close enough to be permissible by FHWA, and PACTS’ signs are close in design to the Louisville signs. In an e-mail received from Kevin Dunn of FHWA on 12/11/2013, he stated that “…if your concept is Louisville’s concept, then the above applies and no experiment is required. If your concept is related to a different sign design it may or may not be subject to experimentation.” As of December, 2013, the Louisville signs were in production, but they had not been installed.

Destination signs should be placed in advance of all decision points, as defined by the intersection of two or more bike routes. Signs should be located 30’ to 100’ in advance of the intersection. On steep downhill segments, the sign should be placed further uphill from the decision point to give the cyclist adequate time to make a decision. The sign should also be placed further from the intersection in busy locations where there is a center turn lane or left turn pocket to decrease the potential of conflict with a motorist as the cyclist is preparing to turn left.

Please refer to the Appendix to see what MUTCD and other selected communities are doing with bicycle wayfinding signage.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 22 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications Symbols Destinations and Routes The consultant team has also looked A table of destinations, based on the outcome of the public process, has been developed for the entire region. Destinations have been at the development of symbols for divided into primary, secondary and tertiary destinations, which will inform from what distance they are signed. bicycle repair facilities and trail head/ kiosks that would either be on or adjacent to bicycle routes. Primary destinations include municipalities, bridges, downtowns/village centers, regional parks & beaches, and regional bike trails that would be included on signs up to five miles away. Several examples are shown below. Secondary destinations include transit stations, districts, and major educational institutions that would be included on signs up to two miles away.

Tertiary destinations include bike repair shops (indicated generically as “bicycle services”), other institutions, local trails, and local parks that would be included on signs up to one mile away.

A table of destinations is included in the Appendix. The table includes the municipality the destination occurs within, a description of the destination, the name for the destination as it would appear on the signs, and a description of the place that would be used to determine distances to the destination. Destinations are included on the regional bicycle wayfinding maps.

Routes were vetted with the Client Project Team and include the ECG, USBR1, and the regional routes that appear on the regional bicycle Bicycle Repair Facilities wayfinding maps as purple dashed lines. As a result of discussions with the Client Project Team, it was determined that it was not feasible to only include routes that incorporated formal bicycle facilities, because doing so would not allow the target destinations to be reached. Where several routes could be used to reach a destination, the routes with better bicycling conditions – i.e. formal bicycle facilities, lower automobile speeds and volumes – were selected with the assistance of member community input.

Bulk Purchase PACTS should consider a bulk purchase of bicycle wayfinding signs (both route markers and destination signs) for the communities within its region. The advantages of a bulk purchase include: Trail Head/Kiosks Establishment of a clear, consistent, and repetitive information path for cyclists traveling on national, state, and regional cycling routes Ease of use of national, state, and regional cycling routes that cross municipal boundaries No potential for communities to opt out of the signage program, thus avoiding the potential for gaps in the wayfinding system Cost effective and efficient sign production relative to multiple individual purchases of small quantities of signs Consistent application of approved graphic standards and sign formats across the region Greater control over which routes are signed for cyclists Greater control over which destinations are included (thus avoiding signing to private businesses, signing to obscure local destinations, and the like)

Flying Point Road to Brunswick No paved shoulders. This road is included in Tour 13 in the Explore Maine by Bike Book. This route was discussed, but it was decided to use the established ECG//USBR1 Route on Pleasant Hill Road and Route 1 as bike routes to the north instead.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 28 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications The following points regarding routes under consideration for inclusion in the signed bicycle wayfinding system were discussed with stakeholders:

West Subregion

Portland The following regional bicycle routes within Portland are classified as Principal Arterials in the Federal Functional Classification system:

• Route 77/Casco Bay Bridge/State Street • Route 25/Brighton Ave/Deering Ave • York and High Streets • West Commercial Street/Fore River Parkway • Route 22/Outer Congress/Park Ave • Route 302/Forest Ave • Route 26/Washington Ave • Route 100/Allen Ave • Congress Street (I-295 to High St)

• Forest Ave is a busy roadway, but striped bicycle lanes are present from approximately the Westbrook line to Avalon Road, with sharrows designated a shared lane scenario from Avalon Road to Woodford’s Corner, where Forest Avenue ceases to be a regional bicycle route. This last stretch can be more difficult for cyclists, due to the volume of traffic and high number of turning movements and potential for conflict with automobiles. From Woodford’s Corner, sharrows continue to Congress Street.

• Of the routes connecting into Westbrook, Warren Avenue is more industrial in use, but it features paved shoulders and has less automobile traffic than Brighton Avenue.

• A disadvantage of Brighton Avenue, although it does have paved shoulders, is that it becomes more commercial as it crosses the turnpike, with heavy traffic and more potential for conflict with turning vehicles.

• Connections from the eastern terminus of Veterans Memorial Bridge and the Fore River Parkway into the Portland Peninsula need to be clearly signed to avoid confusion, since it utilizes a combination of on- and off-road routes.

• Center Street might be considered as two-way for bikes and/or automobiles, which would reduce the complexity of the regional routes near the intersection of Congress and Preble Streets.

• West Commercial Street is slated for improvements, including bicycle lanes near the planned international marine terminal, which will make this route more bike friendly in the future.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 29 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications • Congress Street to Westbrook to Stroudwater was confirmed as a regional bicycle route to Westbrook. Planned improvements on Congress Street in Stroudwater Village between Frost Street and Westbrook Street will improve conditions for cyclists.

• No routes to the west and north from Portland should be dropped from the regional bike route system for now.

• Brighton, Allen, Forest and Washington Avenues are all being studied for future bike lane expansion.

• A destination at Pleasant and Stevens designated as Deering Center will provide connections to the local Neighborhood Byway system.

• Vannah Avenue will be part of a Neighborhood Byway system.

• Sewall to Whitney to Brighton connects to the Transportation Center and will also be a Neighborhood Byway.

• Presumpscot Street was considered as a connection into Falmouth, but was removed in favor of Ocean Avenue, which runs roughly parallel and is less industrial in use.

• Ocean Avenue to the Payson Park driveway to Baxter Boulevard will be used as a way to bypass the four-lane section of Washington Avenue between Presumpscot Street and Tukey’s Bridge. A future Neighborhood Byway connection will link this route to Canco Road to the north.

Raymond • A route to the Frye Island Ferry was added.

• The RTP will be referred to as the Lakes Region Bus.

• Crescent Beach was identified as a destination on Route 88.

• No routes were removed. Route 85/Webbs Mills Road beyond Raymond to Casco and Route 121/ Meadow Road beyond Raymond and Casco Center are considered future routes.

• Egypt Road and Valley Road were discussed for future addition to the network to provide connectivity to Gray and points north.

Windham • North Windham will be considered a primary destination. Windham Center and South Windham will be considered secondary. • Sebago to the Sea and Mountain Division trailheads will both be signed as destinations.

• White’s Bridge Road has lower traffic volumes, paved shoulders, and is posted at 35 mph. It provides a scenic connection into Standish.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 30 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications • Route 302 is posted at 30 mph and is a Principal Arterial. It is heavily used by automobiles and is commercially developed, but has wide paved shoulders.

• Falmouth Road, identified by the Town as a parallel alternative route to Route 302, is posted at 35 mph. and is considered a Minor Collector, with lower traffic volumes, but no shoulders.

• Windham Center Road, which was recently rebuilt with shoulders from Route 202 to River Road, is preferred to Pope Road in combination with No. Gorham Road, Standish Neck Road, and White’s Bridge Road to connect into Standish from Windham as an alternative to Route 302.

• Duck Pond Road/Mast Road/Blackstrap Road/Babbidge Road/Falmouth Road/Route 115 makes a good alternative to Route 302 and is more popular with cyclists. The section of Falmouth Road south of Route 202 is being repaved, but no shoulders are planned to be added.

• Methodist Road is another good alternative to Route 302.

• Because Route 302 is perhaps more direct for commuters, it was decided to keep Route 302 in as well as the alternate parallel routes that were identified.

• River Road, although a major link to the Portland area, is not considered a suitable route at present, but it is scheduled to be improved over the next several years. It should be re-evaluated for inclusion after the improvements are made.

• The Covered Bridge was requested to be added as a destination, and River Road, only to the bridge, was added as a route in response to that request after some discussion.

Westbrook • It was requested that a new bus stop/hub at the Northeast Corner of Mechanic and Main Streets be added as a destination.

• Routes 25 and 302 are classified as Principal Arterials.

• Main Street/Route 25 was identified as preferable to New Portland Road as a connection between Gorham and Westbrook. Route 25 is said to be used by many cyclists and pedestrians. New Portland Road does not have shoulders along its entire length.

• If River Road is improved for cycling, the new bicycle and pedestrian-only Bridge Street may become a good route to the north.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 31 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications • In the downtown, Route 25/William Clarke Drive is posted at 35 mph, but traffic is slower than that. It is a Principal Arterial with BMUFL signage. Both William Clarke Drive and the parallel Main Street will be retained as regional bicycle routes.

• Stroudwater Street is posted at 35 mph and is a Major/Urban Collector with paved shoulders.

Gorham • Routes 25 and 202 are classified as Principal Arterials.

• New Portland Road is posted at 45 mph in Gorham, and the shoulders disappear. It is classified as a Major/Urban collector. Route 25 will be used instead as the connection to Westbrook.

• Route 25 provides a direct route to the White Mountains and is relatively flat, and should be a part of the regional bicycle route system.

• Because of high traffic volumes, an alternative to a section of Route 25 on less used roads combining Flaggy Meadow Road/ Webster Road/Callahan Road/Elliot Road/Files Road, suggested by Bike Gorham, was included.

• Route 114/Fort Hill Road is classified as a Major/Urban collector and the posted speed is 50 mph, but it has wide shoulders and reaches a destination requested by the Town, Fort Hill Park.

• Route 237 has narrower shoulders than other state routes and was thought to be worthy of inclusion, once the decision was made to keep Route 25 in the regional bicycle route system. It is hilly and scenic, but has a lot of truck traffic from the nearby gravel pit and construction company.

• Route 202 has wider shoulders than Route 237 and is used by cyclists. It is analogous to Windham’s Route 302 in character. Both are designated NHS routes, designated for wide lads and with wide shoulders.

• After the meeting, Town staff recommended signing Routes 202, 237, and 25, but noted that if one had to be eliminated, it should be Route 202.

• The Gambo Powdermill is an historic site that was requested to be added as a destination.

• The bridge and gravel trail linking Windham Road to River Road through Shaw Park was requested to be added as a route.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 32 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications Standish • Otter Ponds was removed as a destination.

• Johnson Field trailhead and Sebago Lake Village can be combined into one destination.

• Randall Orchards will become public and should remain as a destination. It is the same as the Presumpscot regional land reserve location.

• The Limington Rapids Rest Area will remain as a destination.

Several other destinations were removed:

• Steep Falls Wildlife Management Area • Sandbar Beach • Westcott’s Farm • The scenic overlook on Route 35 will not be specifically signed, but is on a signed bicycle route

• Route 114 is a popular bicycle route and connects to Naples. It was requested to be added.

• Route 35 is posted at 40 and 50 mph, is categorized as a Major/Urban collector, and has inconsistent shoulders, but it connects three destinations: the Bonny Eagle School Standish Corner and Sebago Lake Village.

• Boundary Road is posted at 35 and 45 mph, has lower traffic volumes, and has no shoulders. Drivers tend to speed, and it was requested that this route be removed from the system.

• Route 113/the Pequawket Trail is posted at 45 and 50 mph, is classified as an Urban Collector, and has shoulders.

• The Mountain Division Trail west of Sebago Lake Village is a future project in this area that has not been funded. The section of trail from Sebago Lake Village to the paved trail at Otter Ponds is not paved now, but the Town is trying to find funding. A hybrid bicycle would be able to navigate this section of the trail.

• It was decided that both Route 35 and North Gorham Road should be included as routes to Windham. Route 35 has better shoulders, but for only part of its length. North Gorham Road is more scenic and slightly less frequented by cyclists than Route 35, according to the Strava heat map. It does not have shoulders.

PACTS Regional October 18, 2013 Designed and Submitted by: Woodworth Associates Wright Pierce 33 Bicycle Wayfinding Study Updated December 30, 2014 Graphic Design Civil & Environmental Engineers and Communications Test Implementation A test implementation of the regional bicycle wayfinding signage program was installed at the intersection of Highland Avenue and Black Point Road in Scarborough, Maine, in July, 2014. The signs were temporary, and some light shone through the panels, reducing apparent contrast and legibility, as compared to the final signs, which would be fabricated from an opaque material. The test did allow evaluation of sign placement, sign and letter size, and general appearance. Informally, the signs received positive feedback from area cyclists. Based on some inconsistencies that were observed regarding the location and mounted height of signs in the test implementation, it would be extremely desirable to include commissioning as part of the final implementation to ensure conformity with the implementation guidelines, while responding to local site conditions.

In July 2014 facsimile signs were fabricated and then installed at the intersection of Highland Avenue and Black Point Road in Scarborough. Below and at right are photographs that document some of the signs and installation.

In these locations, the destination signs will reinforce the presence of a bike route, and the D11-1 could be redundant. Confirmation signs such as the Test Location: D11-1 and M1-9 (green and white) should still be provided after turns. The M1-9 (green and white) will be used in conjunction with bike Scarborough - destination signs on regional routes, at intersections with USBR1. In this way, the M1-9 signage would let a cyclist on the regional route know Highland Avenue and that if she turns, she will join the national bike route. It is recommended that the M1-9 sign be considered for mounting above the destination Black Point Road sign, for the purpose of meeting required clearances, and for difficult and conjested locations.

Revised 6.3.2014 Upon reaching out to DOTs in states with approved national bike routes, several responses indicated that it would be appropriate to use USBR1 signing in advance of an intersection with the US Bicycle Route. This could be accomplished, for example, by substituting M1-8 and M1-9 signs for the signs shown in figure 2D-6 of the 2009 MUTCD, and adjusting distances to reflect a lower approach speed (typically 1/2 to 1/3 those shown in the figure).

Confirmation signs should be used at a .5 mile to 1 mile interval on identified bike routes and shared use paths in urban and suburban areas, where site conditions warrant and soon after (50-100 feet beyond the far shoulder or curb line) intersections and turns in the route. In rural areas, where road intersections are less frequent, this distance can be increased to 3-5 miles. Consistent use of confirmation signs will be helpful to people entering identified routes from side streets. In some locations, the presence of decision points or turn signs may make confirmation signs unnecessary. Confirmation signs should not be used within 200 ft. of a regulatory, turn, or decision sign.

Destination signs should be placed in advance of all decision points, as defined by the intersection of two or more bike routes. Signs should be located 30’ to 100’ in advance of the intersection. On steep downhill segments, the sign should be placed further uphill from the decision point to give the cyclist adequate time to make a decision. The sign should also be placed further form the intersection in busy locations where there is a center turn lane or left turn pocket to decrease the potential of conflict with a motorist as the cyclist is preparing to turn left.
