    10' Turn Lane

    Existing Conditions - Typical street section

    Preferred Option - Remove center turn lane, add bike lanes

    View at mid-block

    View at intersection(bulb-outs optional)

    Option reviewed/rejected - Remove parking one side for bike lanes

    Option reviewed/rejected - Widen road/reduce sidewalk

    Existing Conditions - Plan diagram (representative segment)

    Option reviewed/rejected - Plan diagram (representative segment)

    Diagram showing proposed north vs. south location of on-street parking for entire corridor planning area

    Option reviewed/rejected - Plan diagram (representative segment)

    Option 1 - Plan diagram (representative segment)

    Pros:• No changes needed to existing curbs or striping• Accommodates vehicle left turns along each block

    Cons:• No dedicated bicycle facilities• On-street parking causes potential “dooring” confl ict for

    bicyclists on both sides of National Avenue

    Pros:• No changes needed to existing curbs• Class II bike lanes are safer than existing conditions or Class

    III bike routes• Buff er between bike lanes and on-street parking reduces

    potential “dooring” confl icts• Opportunity for pedestrian-friendly intersection bulb-outs• Potential for reduction in travel speeds

    Cons:• Removes left turn opportunities for vehicles mid-block• Removes on-street parking near intersections (approx. 74

    parallel parking spaces along entire corridor, about 17%)• Added cost to install optional intersection bulb-outs

    Pros:• Class II bike lanes are safer than existing conditions or Class

    III bike routes• Retains on-street parking (both sides of street) and center

    left turn lane

    Cons:• Expensive and likely infeasible to expand street and reduce

    parkway/sidewalk along one side of the entire corridor (approx. 1.8 miles)

    • On-street parking causes potential “dooring” confl ict with bicyclists on both sides of National Avenue

    • Narrower travel lanes

    Pros:• No changes needed to existing curbs• Class II bike lanes are safer than existing conditions or Class

    III bike routes• Retains left turn opportunities for vehicles mid-block• Intersection bulb-outs are possible with this option

    Cons:• Removes about 48% of on-street parking along the entire

    corridor (approx. 210 parallel spaces total) - see inset diagram showing proposed parking confi guration

    • “Dooring” of bicyclists still a possibility next to parking• Added cost to install optional intersection bulb-outs
