Bicycle Network Chapter 3 Bikeway Network San Leandro Bicycle Network History The Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan sets forth a blueprint for completing a system of bikeways and support facilities within the City of San Leandro. When the Bicycle Master Plan was first adopted in 1997, the City had just 7.4 miles of bicycle lanes on City streets. Currently, San Leandro has an existing bike network that consists of: 5.2 miles of Class i Shared-use Paths, 23.3 miles ofi Class i Bicycle Lanes, 1.3 miles of Class ii Buffered Bicycle Lanes, and 13.7 miles of Class iii Bicycle Routes. The combined network consists of 43.4 miles of bicycle facilities; almost double the 25 miles of facilities that existed in 2010. This update builds on the existing bicycle facilities and proposed networks outlined in previous plans, with a focus on accommodating bicycle travel throughout the City and providing access to key employment, school, recreation, shopping and transit destinations. San Leandro has achieved steady growth in their bikeway network since their first Bike Plan The following pages provide maps and brief descriptions of how San Leandro in 1997. has grown and improved its bicycle network in the last several years.

At this time, the bike network predominantly focused on bikeways on larger streets such as Estudillo Avenue, Williams Street, Wicks Boulevard, and Bikeway Classification Miles San Leandro Boulevard. The Class i facilities were trails that were a part of the Class i Bike Path 4.2 Bay Trail network.

Consolidating funding from a variety of local, state, and federal sources, San Leandro was Bikeway Classification Miles able to build an additional 18 miles of bikeways in this seven year period. This Class i Bike Path 5.20 expansion was focused in the northeastern part of the City near downtown Class II Bike Lane 23.20 and the San Leandro BART Station. Many new miles of Class III facilities were Class II Buffered Bike Lane 1.30 added in addition to the City’s first segments of buffered bike lanes.

These elements are described below with additional design detail included in the Bicycle and Pedestrian Design Guidelines. This discussion includes what is currently in use in San Leandro and other options that may be utilized during implementation of the Plan. Bikeway Treatments Bikeway planning and design in California typically relies on the guidelines and design standards established by Caltrans as documented in “Chapter 1000: Bikeway Planning and Design” of the Highway Design Manual (2016) and Part 9 of the Manual of Uniform Control Devices (CA MUTCD 2014). in 2015, Caltrans published Design information Bulletin Number 89 (DiB 89). D iB 89 provides official guidance for Class iv Separated Bikeways. These documents follow standards developed by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO), National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO), and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), and identify specific design standards for various conditions and bikeway-to-roadway relationships. NACTO recently released "Designing for All Ages and Abilities," a guide that outlines bikeway treatments that would be considered for riders of all ages and abilities. As San Leandro strives to create an "All Ages and Abilities Network," referencing this guide as it designs future bikeways will help ensure that these facilities serve an array of bicyclists. This 2018 Plan update did not include an update to San Leandro's Bicycle and Pedestrian Design Guidelines. The Alameda County Transportation Commission's Design Guidelines for Central Alameda County provides more up-to-date guidelines and best practices that San Leandro should reference. Bicycle facilities in San Leandro fall into the following four types which are illustrated on the following pages. 46 ~ CiTY OF SAN LEANDRO BiCYCLE & PEDESTRiAN MASTER PLAN Class I Shared-Use Paths (Trails) Class i bikeways, also known as trails or shared-use paths, are off-street facilities dedicated exclusively to use by bicyclists and pedestrians. San Leandro currently has 5.2 miles of Class i bikeways. A conceptual rendering of a Class I shared-use path. A Class I shared-use path in the San Leandro Marina Park - part of the Bay Trail. C iTY OF SAN LEANDRO BiCYCLE & PEDESTRiAN MASTER PLAN ~ 47 Class II Bicycle Lanes and Buffered Bicycle Lanes Classi i facilities are on-street bike lanes. These can be a standard size (minimum 5-feet wide), but can also be enhanced with a painted buffer added to the side of the lane for a higher perception of safety or with green paint for higher visibility.
