Based on the requirements and plans of the transit agencies, the BMS Team will ensure that the downtown TOD strategy's circulation plan integrates and connects BART and AC Transit's proposed BRT and Rapid Transit systems with local services. This includes evaluating and recommending improvements to the pedestrian and bicycle transportation systems. This task will culminate into development of standards, design guidance and policies for integration into the TOD strategy. The design standards will include traffic engineering and safety elements of roadway designs, street cross-sections, dimensions, balance between travelway and pedestrian realm elements of the street, and prototypical intersection designs that accommodate traffic and transit movement and improve pedestrian safety. The Strategy will also include design standards to accommodate BRT and/or Rapid Bus within the downtown area. Items to be addressed include compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), bus stops and shelters, bicycle parking, informational and directional signage, lighting, security issues, and other needs identified by AC Transit and BART. Additionally, design standards for downtown sidewalks, crosswalks, and pedestrian and bicycle improvements will be developed to facilitate station access and non- vehicular circulation within the greater downtown area. 4.4 CAC Meeting 7 - Transportation Analysis This meeting of the CAC will provide an opportunity to review the Transportation Analysis including the Parking Demand and Traffic Demand Analysis and the Station Area Access Plan. 4.5 Plan Adjustments Following these analyses and CAC reviews, the BMS Team will adjust the land use alternatives to optimize them and account for any problems identified during the analyses. 4.6 CAC Meeting 8 - Select Preferred Plan The land use alternatives will be presented along with a summary analysis to the CAe for selection of a Preferred Plan.
