Poughkeepsie-Dutchess County Transportation Council Bicycle-Pedestrian Advisory Committee (BPAC) Meeting

October 30, 2014, 3:00-5:00 p.m.

Dutchess Community College, 122 Bowne Hall (1st Floor), 53 Pendell Road, Poughkeepsie

Minutes

1) Introductions Emily Dozier (PDCTC Project Manager) welcomed everyone to the meeting. Attendees introduced themselves [see attached list].

2) Presentation & Discussion: Bryan Roberts, Winnakee Land Trust Bryan Roberts gave a presentation on his work at Winnakee Land Trust to promote local trail development. He discussed current trail planning efforts in Hyde Park, Rhinebeck, Red Hook, and Pine Plains, and noted that he intends to reach out to other municipalities as well. He emphasized the importance of creating connections to local destinations as well as developing regional trail systems. Winnakee is planning a trail conference for fall 2015 to bring together people from around the county to discuss trail planning efforts and opportunities. Bryan encouraged anyone interested in trail planning to reach out to him at roberts.bryanr@gmail.com.

3) September Ped/Bike Counts Summary Emily thanked everyone who helped count people walking and bicycling during our annual counts in September. She noted that rain on the Saturday count date resulted in some lower numbers, but there were also some increases, particularly in the weekday counts. She asked for feedback on the new 4-6 pm evening count period. The group seemed to agree that it worked well. Committee members emphasized the importance of collecting this data. Emily asked for suggestions for additional volunteers for next year. Members suggested trail organizations, including Winnakee Land Trust, and more outreach to bike clubs and bicycle shops [the count summary is attached and also posted on the WalkBikeDutchess website: www.dutchessny.gov/WalkBikeDutchess].

4) County-owned Traffic Signals: Bicycle Detection Emily explained that on October 17th, she worked with County Department of Public Works staff to adjust the sensitivity of the traffic signal at CR 43/CR46 (Degarmo Rd/Overlook Rd) to better detect bicycles. This signal was chosen based on feedback from the BPAC and County DPW. Based on tests in the field, the signal initially did not detect a bicycle. The sensors at both the westbound and southbound left turn lanes were raised to ‘high’ sensitivity, and were then able to detect a bicycle. Emily encouraged BPAC members to test the signal with their bicycles and let her know if it detects them or not. DPW staff will continue to monitor the signal to see if the higher sensitivity results in many ‘false calls’. So far, no complaints have been received. If the test is deemed successful, similar adjustments could be implemented on other actuated County-owned signals, and possibly on other signals throughout the county.

5) Bicycle Parking- Online Map Emily noted that the online bike parking map has been updated and a couple more parking locations have been added. She encouraged the group to continue to send photos, coordinates, and information about existing bike parking, and to help spread the word about the online map. Andy Pecoraro suggested that businesses that have bike parking could be recognized and also help raise awareness about the online map.

6) Dutchess County Tourism- Bicycle Tours Brochure update Emily explained that Mary Kay Vrba, Executive Director of Dutchess County Tourism, held a meeting with a sub-committee of BPAC members in mid-September to get feedback on draft bicycle ‘tours’ around the county. She intends to finalize the tours and work with her graphics staff to print brochures by mid-December. These will replace the old tours brochure, which can be found on the Dutchess County Tourism website.

7) Education a. Walk to School Day: Emily asked if attendees were aware of any Walk to School Day events (October 8th).

She noted that she reached out to teachers at several schools, but was only aware of an event at Forrestal Elementary in Beacon. She asked for suggestions for encouraging more events next year. Bill Johnson noted that some schools prohibit walking or bicycling to school; others noted that many schools lack adequate sidewalks and safe ways for students to walk to school (note: a table summarizing local school district policies is in Chapter 4 of Walk Bike Dutchess; see pages 30-34 of the pdf). Ozie Williams suggested that fun walking activities could be organized on school property during the school day. The BPAC could help promote this for next year’s Walk to School Day.

b. Bicycle Traffic Skills 101 course: Emily announced that that the adult bicycle skills course (Traffic Skills 101) was held on October 17-18. There were 10 participants, including Betsy and Kevin from the BPAC. Betsy added that it was a great class and gave her more confidence for riding on the road and trail and leading less experienced riders. Kevin noted that many people who bicycle for transportation would benefit from the class. Emily noted that she would like to hold another class next year, and asked for suggestions for additional outreach. Suggestions included: Coordinate with Walkway Ambassadors to hand out flyers and identify potential participants; recruit people at Dutchess Rail Trail parking lots; work with church groups; and try to reach out to Spanish speakers, particularly in the City of Poughkeepsie.

Committee members also suggested holding shorter clinics in the spring, such as during weekends or evenings at Dutchess Rail Trail parking lots and/or farmers’ markets. These clinics could include basic safety skills and maintenance such as how to change a tire. Bill Johnson stated that he could include this concept in the County’s Traffic Safety Board grant proposal for next year. Bill noted that many police agencies auction off recovered bicycles because they don’t have a good place to donate them. Committee members discussed the idea of a bicycle rescue or co-op, which could use the recovered bikes to teach basic maintenance and riding skills, and provide the bicycles to those in need.

8) Implementation: Progress Reports Emily asked all attendees to provide an update on the projects they are working on in their municipality or organization. Updates included the following:

• Brian Griffin, V/Pawling: The Village is installing the bike racks provided by the County. It also applied for a Community Development Block Grant for sidewalks near the Elementary School. A committee is working on a plan for sidewalks along Route 22 to the Middle/High School. Sharrows were installed on Coulter Avenue, for a total of 10-12 sharrows in the Village.

• Betsy Brockway: The Town would like the County DPW to install Share the Road signs on West Dover Road (CR 20); Betsy is waiting for a letter from the Town Supervisor. She asked Bill Trifilo if he had received anything; he was not aware of a request. The Town’s Recreation Committee is updating the Recreation Plan. Betsy participated in the Scenic Hudson/Poughkeepsie Journal’s Farmland Cycling Tour in Red Hook in September and said it was a great event.

• Lisa Mondello, NYSDOT: The Route 199 repaving is done; the Route 9G paving (shoulders only) is also done. The Route 55 project in LaGrange is almost done.

• Bill Trifilo, County DPW: DPW has completed road paving projects on a number of County roads. • Johnny Galbraith: Johnny has transitioned his Facebook group to a page (Poughkeepsie Bicycle

Advocates); he is also maintaining his blog (pknybiker.wordpress.com) and Twitter feed (@PKNY Biker). He gave a talk on bicycling at Marist College and plans another one in the spring. He will have a booth at the college’s Sustainability Fair. He has participated in the Poughkeepsie Farm Project’s drop-in bicycle maintenance (open to the public) on Tuesday afternoons, and will be providing valet bicycle parking and basic bike maintenance at the Poughkeepsie Maker Faire at Poughkeepsie Day School on November 15th.

• Andy Pecoraro: Andy attended a public meeting in October on the Hudson Highlands Fjord Trail which discussed the proposed alignment. The project is estimated to cost $16 million. [Emily distributed a map showing the preferred alignment- see attached]. He is also following the repaving of Spring Rd in the Town of Poughkeepsie; utility work is underway, then shoulders may be added.

• Ross Ritter: Ross has been following the repaving of several County roads, including Titusville Rd, Walker Rd and Red Oaks Mill Rd. He thanked County DPW for their work. He asked if shoulders would be included in the Route 55 project; Lisa stated that 4 foot shoulders were planned.

• Kevin Newman: Kevin noted that there was some confusion related to the City of Poughkeepsie’s eligibility for a Transit Amenities Contract and County transit amenities. He stated that since the City receives its own federal transit funds, it is not eligible for County transit amenities. [Note: Emily clarified with County Transit Administrator Cynthia Ruiz that the City could receive bus stop shelters or signs from the County for locations along a County bus route, as well as bike racks, if it signed a Transit Amenities Contract].

• Jane Geisler: Jane had no updates; Emily suggested that she pursue her suggestion for a crosswalk on Flint Road at The Fountains at Millbrook senior living in Union Vale.

• Mary Nisley: Mary participated in the League of American Bicyclists’ National Bike Challenge and placed very high! She noted that NYSDOT had filled potholes on Route 376, which was a big improvement. She asked Lisa Mondello about NYSDOT’s policies for sweeping, as portions of Route 376 have not been swept in a long time. Lisa said this had been discussed previously, but she would check.

• Karen Flaherty: Karen proposed a trails ‘walkabout’ program for the Town of Poughkeepsie, similar to the Hyde Park Healthy Trails walkabout program. The program would encourage residents (and others) to use the trails in the Town, such as Locust Grove, Quiet Cove, College Hill, Bowdoin Park, and others. She told Karl Beard she would like to coordinate with the National Park Service, since they help with the Hyde Park program.

• Susie Deane: Susie had no updates; however she may still pursue writing a Letter to the Editor to increase driver awareness about bicyclists’ rights and safety.

• Ozie Williams: Ozie talked to the City of Poughkeepsie about repairing the old YMCA walking track next to Eastman Park and was told it could cost about $50,000 to repair. Emily suggested that she could focus on working with City schools on walking activities for Walk to School Day and more generally.

• Karl Beard, National Park Service: Karl stated that based on the NPS trails plan, he submitted funding applications to develop trails through some of the Hyde Park National parks, including connecting to the CIA campus and developing a loop trail concept at the Roosevelt south trail.

• Bill Johnson: Bill noted that the Buy America Act could limit the Traffic Safety Board’s ability to purchase lower-cost helmets, since most of the helmets they purchase are made in China. He is

interested in pursuing bicycle education/clinics for adults as part of the TSB’s programs. They could also conduct helmet checks and education along the Dutchess Rail Trail.

9) Other Updates/Announcements

a. Funding programs: TAP- Governor Cuomo announced the funding awards for the Transportation Alternatives Program, which is the main federal funding program for walking and bicycling infrastructure. Four communities in Dutchess County received awards: The City of Beacon, Town of Hyde Park, Town of Red Hook, and Village of Wappingers Falls. Emily distributed a press release [see attached].

b. Walk Friendly Communities: the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center will accept applications for its Walk Friendly Communities recognition program November 3 – December 15. The web-based program asks a comprehensive set of questions regarding engineering, education, encouragement, enforcement, evaluation and planning, and provides communities with feedback and ideas for promoting pedestrian safety and activity [see attached].

10) Homework • Add to the bicycle parking inventory! To add existing racks, email Emily with a specific description,

location (GPS coordinates preferred) and a photo showing the rack in the context of its surroundings. • Test the bicycle detection at the Degarmo Rd/Overrocker Rd traffic signal and let Emily know if your

bicycle is detected (on the southbound and westbound left turn lanes) or not. • Continue to implement projects!

11) Next Meeting: January 29, 3-5pm Meeting schedule: January, April, July, October; last Thursday, 3:00 – 5:00 pm (typically) • Note: Emily will likely be out on maternity leave for the January and April meetings. Mark Debald from

the PDCTC will chair those meetings.

Governor Cuomo Announces $70 Million in Funding for 68 Bicycle and Pedestrian Projects

Albany, NY (October 27, 2014) Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced approximately $70 million in awards to fund 68 bicycle, pedestrian and multi-use path transportation projects in New York. The projects, funded by the Federal Highway Administration and which leverage a total investment of $103.7 million, will promote walking and biking, and boost tourism and economic development opportunities in dozens of communities across the state.

"These projects will help communities become more walkable and bicycle friendly, as well as show off the natural beauty that exists in every corner of this state,” Governor Cuomo said. “I thank the Federal Highway Administration and our representatives for helping the state secure this funding so that residents and visitors alike can enjoy New York like never before."

The projects include the addition of accessible sidewalks, improved pedestrian access to public transportation services, construction of new bicycle and pedestrian facilities and the preservation and conversion of abandoned railroad corridors for trail use.

New York State Department of Transportation Commissioner Joan McDonald said, "We are investing in projects that meet the increasing public demand for walkable and bikeable communities, while promoting sustainable transportation alternatives, tourism and recreation, and local and regional economic development. Governor Cuomo has shown a historic commitment to investing in transportation infrastructure in New York State, including making bicycle and pedestrian safety a priority."

The funds are made available to the State through the Federal Highway Administration and are administered by the State Department of Transportation. The program provides up to 80 percent of the cost of each project, with the remaining share coming from the project sponsor. The funds are dedicated for strategic investments in transportation alternatives and with a local sponsor match of more than $33.6 million, support a total investment of nearly $103.7 million.

The projects announced today were chosen through a competitive solicitation process and rated on established criteria that included public benefit and community support for the project; connectivity to an existing transportation system; how well the proposed improvements benefit walking and bicycling; impact on local or regional economies; availability of matching funds; and ability to deliver the project within federally required timeframes. 135 applications were received.

Selected projects relate to one or more of the following categories: on-road and off-road trail facilities for pedestrians, bicyclists and other non-motorized forms of transportation; infrastructure-related projects and systems that provide safe routes for non-drivers to access daily needs; use of abandoned railroad corridors for surface-transportation related trails; scenic byway turnouts and viewing areas; safe routes to school; construction of boulevards and complete streets thoroughfares; and storm water management related to highway runoff.

The projects that are funded, sorted by region, include:

Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center names its 50th Walk Friendly Community CHAPEL HILL, NC — The Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center (PBIC) is pleased to announce its three new Walk Friendly Communities (WFC), bringing the program’s total to 50. The “Walk Friendly” title means a city or town is being recognized for its success in working to improve a wide range of conditions related to walking, including safety, mobility, access, and comfort. As part of its commitment to pedestrian safety, FedEx supports Walk Friendly Communities, a national recognition program of the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center at the University of North Carolina that encourages cities and towns across the United States to create safe walking environments. “Reaching 50 Walk Friendly Communities is a tremendous milestone” said Carl Sundstrom, WFC program manager. “We continue to see the program grow with communities finding new and exciting ways to improve conditions for walking, and we are looking forward to seeing many more communities attain Walk Friendly status in the years to come.” Of the 50 Walk Friendly Communities across the nation, Seattle remains the only Platinum-level Walk Friendly Community. The program will begin accepting applications for the ninth round on Nov. 3, 2014, with the deadline for submission on Dec. 15, 2014. Interested communities are encouraged to visit www.walkfriendly.org to learn more about the program and review the community assessment tool. Applicants use a web-based program that asks a comprehensive set of questions and provides communities with feedback and ideas for promoting pedestrian safety and activity. The questions examine engineering, education, encouragement, enforcement, evaluation and planning. Officially launched in October 2010, the WFC program is funded by FedEx and the U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration. "We are excited to see so many communities taking action to become more Walk Friendly,” said Rose Flenorl, manager, FedEx Global Citizenship. “Their actions translate into fewer pedestrian injuries and saved lives. FedEx is a strong advocate for road safety. We work with many national and global organizations dedicated to road safety and are proud sponsors of the PBIC and this program."

About the WFC Program

The Walk Friendly Community designation, awarded from bronze to platinum, is given to applicant communities that have demonstrated a commitment to improving and sustaining walkability and pedestrian safety through comprehensive programs, plans and policies. At the core of the WFC program is a comprehensive assessment tool that evaluates community walkability and pedestrian safety through questions related to engineering, education, encouragement, enforcement, evaluation and planning. The assessment tool questions are intended to both evaluate conditions for walking and provide communities with feedback and ideas for promoting pedestrian safety and activity. Modeled after the League of American Bicyclists’ “Bicycle Friendly Communities,” WFC distinguishes cities and towns that are leading the way in walkability. WFC is the first program to highlight communities for their walkability initiatives and programs, while also offering feedback to assist communities in improving walkability.

About PBIC

Since its inception in 1999, PBIC's mission has been to improve the quality of life in communities through the increase of safe walking and bicycling as a viable means of transportation and physical activity. The PBIC is maintained by the University of North Carolina Highway Safety Research Center under a cooperative agreement with funding from the U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration. www.pedbikeinfo.org.
