2.5.3 Key Connections Map Using, in part, background information prepared as part of the Strategy, our team will develop a map identifying key connections between the destinations discussed above in Task 2.5.2. Connections will be color coded on the map to distinguish them on the basis of importance. Icons will be shown on the rnap, to clarify what modes (e.g. automobile, bicycle, pedestrian) could be accommodated on the identified connections. 2.5.4 Key Decision Points Map Based on the information from the destination ranking table and key connections map, we will prepare a separate map to identify key decision points within the study area. The primary purpose of this rnap will be to illustrate where the installation of wayfmding features for the various modes (bicycle, pedestrian, and auto) would be most appropriate. In developing this map, our team members will carefully consider the interface that currently exists between existing access features and key destinations, such as the interface between San Leandro Boulevard and the BART station. Based on its assessment of existing wayfinding features, destination ranking, and key connections, our team will graphically depict where new wayfinding signage should be focused and generally what types of signage would be optimal given the specific context. The conceptual wayfinding plan will be included as a separate chapter or section in the larger interface plan. The conceptual plan will include the maps developed in Tasks 2.5.3-2.5-4 above and a summary of key conclusions and recommendations. Deliverables: Working Paper 3 -BART Station Access and Circulation Concepts with Supporting Technical Analysis in Appendix Working Paper 4 -Conceptual Way-Finding Plan Meetings: Community Workshop 2: Design Concepts and Identification of Community Priorities. 3. ACCESSIBILITY PLAN 3.1 Accessibility Audit The Kimley-Horn team will provide a visual accessibility audit of the existing access corridors to the BART station comprising the length of San Leandro Boulevard from Castro Street to approximately 300 feet north of Davis Street, and on the cross streets for a distance of approximately 300 feet from San Leandro Boulevard. The audit will be based on the most recent ADAAG and PROWAG requirements. This assessment will establish a template or model for reviewing and assessing streets further from the BART station and proposed development access plans. 3.2 Accessibility Review of Conceptual Designs The conceptual designs prepared for San Leandro Boulevard and the BART station transit plaza will be reviewed based on the criteria developed above.
