^ Landscaped Parking Island -along the frontage of the Evergreen Nursery area to clarify vehicle movements and separate through traffic from curbside angle parking area. Plane Trees at approxi- mately 50 feet on center are recommended to frame the parking area as a space and provide shade; see Special Areas -South MacArthur Place, below. ^ Shared Bike/Short Term Parking Lane -along the easterly frontage between Estudillo and Dutton. This lane would be striped at a width of 8'; the existing sidewallc segment along the frontage would be extended to the north to provide a curbside step zone. Existing pear trees adjacent to the freeway wall would be retained. ^ Pedestrian crossings (2) -one located at the northerly end of the indent area (to accommodate northbound left turns into the angle parking area), the other adjacent to the Bridge Road intersection. ^ Corner sidewalk "bulb-outs" -see description for North MacArthur subarea, above. ^ Street trees within curbside parking areas -see description for North MacArthur subarea, above; parallel parking only in this subarea. ^ Pedestrian-oriented street lights -see description for North MacArthur subarea, above; westerly frontage only. ^ Ornamental paving bands -see description for North MacArthur subarea, above. Special Areas Two special areas -Hollywood Place and South MacArthur Place - are anticipated to be the focus of pedestrian-oriented commercial devel- opment, and are recommended to have a more intensive level of de- sign and improvement. The San Leandro Creek area currently di- vides commercial frontages to the north and south, and is proposed to be enhanced as a better pedestrian link and more visible natural asset. __ __ _`_ ~,~~"~'-,..-m"""__.'.~_ - Excess street width encourages speeding. - 14 - Landscaped medians are proposed for traffic calming and beautification.
