Some monitoring activities are listed below. • Plan Review: Roadway improvement plans should be routed through the bicycle coordinator to ensure that bikeway segments are implemented, developer impact fees are identified (if applicable), and design standards are met. • Accident Monitoring: Bicycle — related accidents should be collected annually from the Police Department and tabulated to show patterns by location and accident type. • Public Involvement: The bicycle coordinator should continue to provide the Bicycle Action Committee with materials, information, and other support as the system is being implemented. Bicycle promotional and educational events should be planned and managed by the coordinator. • Bikeway Maintenance: The coordinator should be responsible for the annual bikeway maintenance and operations budget, collaborating with the Public Works Services Department. The coordinator should keep track of long term bike path maintenance, schedule repairs, and respond to calls from the public or staff regarding maintenance needs. • Funding Monitoring: The coordinator should work closely with various funding agencies such as MTC and Caltrans to keep abreast of funding opportunities and to follow up on applications to ensure maximum success. • Operations Monitoring: The coordinator should be responsible for providing the needed enforcement along bike paths in cooperation with the Police Department.
