This helps Also the proposed design has a plan to reduce one lane from W Las Positas feeding to Fairlands Dr intersection. This is after exiting Fairlands school and taking right turn. Like I mentioned we have lot of parents in cars with their with kids exiting-and presume that is also not narrowed as it's in Meadows neighborhood.? Please find attached recent picture just off Fairlands Dr and Las Positas. The plan wants to remove car lane next to kerb/sidewalk in the picture , when there is already a substantial traffic jam . This is a recent picture after your crosswalk implementation mentioned below.

It is with the public's continued input that we will be able to deliver a project that meets the needs of the residents. I believe we spoke at the public meeting last month. I was hoping that the meeting would clear up some of the misconceptions regarding "lane removal." We are not proposing lane removal in the area in which your pictures show congestion. The westbound travel lanes (shown in your picture) on West Las Positas approaching Santa Rita Road will remain as they are currently configured. One of the design alternatives does show a conversion of a through lane to a right turn lane, but we are not proposing that design and will be retaining the 2 through lanes. Eastbound West Las Positas approaching Santa Rita is still under review for the conversion of one of the through lanes to a right turn lane. Currently the eastbound direction has a 2 lane design (which exists for about 100 feet beyond the intersection then drops to a single lane just prior to Fairlands Drive). The volume using the eastbound through lanes is low and it appears enough time can be allocated to the EB movement to accommodate a single lane design. We are reviewing the operational aspects of this change which includes the video capture of existing traffic volumes. Your email had a suggestion to place a crosswalk on the north side of the Santa Rita at West Las Positas intersection, while your information is correct that the crosswalk was there in the past. it was the VERY distant past, as it hasn't been there for over 20 years. But we are exploring the option of returning the crosswalk. The crosswalk conflicts with one of 4
