I cross Santa Rita on the Iron Horse to <br /> the Arroyo trail daily. My girlfriend also works in Pleasanton. Both of us would spend more money in <br /> downtown and at Stoneridge Mall if they were more safely accessible to bikes. <br /> Just yesterday, I tried accessing Stoneridge Mall without BART for the first time. Google Maps told me the best <br /> route was via Stoneridge, and the other route would add over a mile of distance. The intersection at Johnson <br /> Drive/ 680 is terrifying and I will not do it again. <br /> I'm happy to see the overpasses being prioritized. Please continue with due speed as to improve the safety, <br /> health, and carbon impact of the city's residents and businesses/employees. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Steven Dunbar <br /> 1 <br />
