  • 17Th Avenue Pop-Up Protected Bike Lane
    17th Avenue Pop-Up Protected Bike Lane By: Jessica Ngo, Lydia Jenkins-Sleczkowski, Christina Eldredge, and Christopher Tom March 16, 2020 Executive Summary Purpose The purpose of this report is to attract cycling to a broad group of cyclists by recommending the implementation of protected bike lanes in Santa Cruz. With our limited time, we focused on a critical site where protected bike lanes would be most useful to the surrounding community. 17th Avenue is an essential street due to its connectivity and access to schools and businesses, in addition to its connection to the Arana Gulch bike trail, which connects to downtown Santa Cruz. To widen the appeal of cycling along this street, we recommend implementing protected bike lanes along 17th Avenue from Felt Street through the intersection at Capitola Road. The implementation of protected bike lanes can increase the number of commuters who bike and improve road safety for all types of users. The benefits of protected bike lanes come at a low cost and require minimal infrastructural changes. This Report: ● Assesses the bicycle facilities along 17th Avenue and identifies key segments along the street based on proximity to destinations (schools, businesses, recreation, etc.) and bicycle safety (collisions, traffic volumes, and travel speeds). ● Recommends feasible bike facilities that require minimal change to the already existing street dimensions and follows the National Association of City Transportation Officials Development The 17th Avenue Protected Bike Lanes report was developed as part of a senior seminar group project through the University of California, Santa Cruz. Jessica Ngo, Lydia Jenkins-Sleczkowski, Christina Eldredge, and Christopher Tom are Environmental Studies undergraduate students who worked with the help of Bike Santa Cruz County director Gina Cole and under the supervision of Professor Adam Millard-Ball to develop this report.

  • Implementing Bicycle Improvements at the Local Level
    IMPLEMENTING BICYCLE IMPROVEMENTS AT THE LOCAL LEVEL PUBLICATION NO. FHWA-98-105 1998 U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION ith the passage of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Effi- ciency Act of 1991 (ISTEA), metropolitan planning organizations W throughout the United States were explicitly required to consider bicyclists in their long-range transportation plans. As a result, many post- ISTEA plans do include ambitious bicycling components intended to increase the levels and safety of bicycle use within the affected communi- ties. In light of these events, the purpose of this document is to provide detailed information on how to implement some of the most useful and popular elements. As a result, the advice contained herein will be most useful for those at the local—typically below the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO)—level working to implement the MPO long-range plans. The goal of bicycle planning at the local level is to provide for bicycle travel within the community. The purpose of doing so is to encourage more bicycling and to reduce the number of serious bicycling crashes and injuries. Building bicycle facilities is a key part of the encouragement side of this effort. But such efforts typically mean focusing on small-scale improvements and local environments. Since the typical bicycle trip is less The goal of bicycle planning at the local level is to provide for bicycle travel within the community. The purpose of doing so is to encourage more bicycling. than two miles in length, regional plans tend to overlook issues of most concern to bicyclists.

Abstract This report is a comparative analysis of bicycle lanes (BLs) versus wide curb lanes (WCLs). The primary analysis was based on videotapes of almost 4,600 bicyclists (2,700 riding in BLs and 1,900 in WCLs) in the cities of Santa Barbara, CA, Gainesville, FL, and Austin, TX, as the bicyclists approached and rode through eight BL and eight WCL intersections with varying speed and traffic conditions.

By guiding the region toward the creation of a substantial regional bicycle network, this plan can affect all of these issue areas, thereby improving existing and future quality of life in the San Diego region.
