The Plan <br />creates a design that meets the 2018 Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan’s goal of creating a <br />continuous facility that is usable by all ages and abilities. West Las Positas is a primary route to <br />school for four different schools and used by hun dreds of students every day, and which sees a <br />high level of pedestrian and bicycle use, while at the same time experiencing some of the <br />highest collision volumes in the City for pedestrians and cyclists. The proposed quick fix <br />improvements, and implementation of the Corridor Plan as a whole, is an opportunity to provide <br />a much needed complete, high quality pedestrian and bicycle facilities along a key arterial <br />street. <br /> <br />Submitted by: <br /> <br />Matthew Nelson <br />Associate Traffic Engineer <br /> <br />Attachment: <br />1.
