Midblock (Bicycle) Three midblock segments were identified with more than one bicycle collision during the three-year period. These locations did not illustrate a pattern individually, but the combination of the collisions on Valley Avenue and Santa Rita Road do illustrate a pattern. These four collisions all include a bicycle riding on the sidewalk on the side of the roadway "opposite" the adjacent vehicular direction of travel and a right turn vehicle coming out of a driveway. ,, 4.-- w ;, A 4W itaia.„.

They occur at various locations around the City and normally involve riders under the age of 18. Riding on the sidewalk provides a more comfortable riding experience along high speed roadways. Elimination of bicycles on sidewalks would remedy this collision pattern, but wouldn't encourage the usage of alternate transportation, as many younger riders wouldn't elect to ride in the bike lanes. Until a more comprehensive network of cycle tracks is completed, education of crossing driveways should be continued and spot improvements considered at locations where heavy bicycle / vehicular driveway volumes are present. Page 13 iver did not see ' the pedestrian. No collisions were reported at this location in 2021. No roadway/signage changes are recommended at this time. No other intersection had more than one pedestrian collision in the last three years. Expanding the analysis to five years did produce 6 total intersections with two collisions, however, none of the locations contained a pedestrian collision from 2021 . Midblock There are no midblock sections identified that had more than one pedestrian collision during the three- year period. Page 11 ollision reports show that many result There are 84 collisions in the current period where age of the bicyclist was determined (there were 85 total bicyclist collisions) Page 10 The previous 10 years with no collisions indicate that the visibility and warning of the roundabout is adequate. Green street guidance signs are present approaching the roundabouts to provide warning, and staff will evaluate if additional warning can be placed on the approaches. No correctable patterns were identified at the remaining intersections. Page 6 Avenue was not on the list for the first time, with only two collisions last year. Similarly Hopyard Road at Stoneridge Drive also had two crashes. Both of these intersections average 6+ crashes per year historically. The top three intersections are described below as well as any intersections where staff identified patterns/improvements. Foothill Road at Dublin Canyon Road / Canyon Way This is the first time this intersection has been on the top 10 list. The period from 2017 to 2020 the intersection had a total of 9 collisions. Ten collisions in one year is three times the normal rate for this intersection. It should also be noted that this intersection continues to experience lighter than usual traffic with 25,000 vehicles per day compared to the pre-pandemic volume of 45,000 per day. This continued low volume can be attributed to the low ridership on BART and the continued work from home by most of the office building businesses around Stoneridge Mall. The intersection was modified in June of 2020. The southbound alignment was altered slightly to allow the addition of a third southbound left turn lane. Page 5
