Instal1atlon of Blke1anes on Callfornla Avenue
between Ocean Avenue and 17th Street and on
Arlzona Avenue between 26tri Street and Llncoln
Boulevard
Introduct1on
Th1S report reco~~ends tnat C~ty Councl1 ~nstruct Clty Staff
to 1nstall b1kelanes on Callfornla Avenue between Ocean Avenue
and 17th Street and on Arizona Avenue between Llncoln Boulevard
and 26th Street.
Background
~here are three class1f1catlons of b~cycle facilitles; a
b1~epath, blkelane or b1keroute. A b1kepath lS a b1cycle faC1l1ty
wlth excluslve r1ght of way separated from motor vehicle trafflc.
The beach blkepath 1S an example of th1S type of fac1l1ty. A
b~kelane such as 1S on aan Vlcente Boulevard 1S a bicycle
fac~llty 1nd1cated by the strlp1ng of a b1kelane to separate
blcycllSt from the travel lane used by veh~cle dr1vers. This has
been proven to be the safest type of blcycle fac1lty. A bike
route 15 des1gnated only by slgns along the roadway.
Clty staff prepared a master plan for blcycle facl11t1es
saveral years ago (see map). -rhe prlInary purpose of the plan was
to determlne all streets WhlCh have suff~c1ent w~dths to install
b1Kelanes and se~ve as many publlC fac1I~t1es (parks, schools and
llbrar~es)
as posslble. 7he secondary purpose was to identlfy
waere blkeroutes should be establlshed to prov~de necessary Ilnks
to complete the blcycle facility sIstem.
