O .'SAN'tr 4 � <br /> ',ate% San Leandro Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan <br /> EXECUTIVE SUMMARY <br /> Executive Summary <br /> Bicycling and walking are low -cost, quiet, non - polluting, and healthy forms of <br /> transportation ideal for many trips. In 1997, the City of.San Leandro adopted a <br /> Bicycle Master Plan to set forth a blueprint for completing a system of bikeways, <br /> support facilities (such as bicycle parking) and education programs. This <br /> document was updated in 2004 to reflect changes in the bicycling environment <br /> and to add a pedestrian component —the plan was re- titled as the Bicycle and <br /> Pedestrian Master Plan. <br /> This document comprises the 2010 update to the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master <br /> Plan. This Plan is the official policy document guiding the development of <br /> facilities to enhance bicycling and walking as an additional and appropriate <br /> transportation choice for 'San Leandro residents. Specifically, the City's vision is <br /> for: <br /> A city where walking and bicycling are fully integrated into daily life, <br /> providing environmentally - friendly transportation alternatives that are <br /> both safe and convenient for people of all ages and abilities. <br /> • <br /> Bicycles <br /> Existing bicycle facilities in San Leandro fall into the following three types which <br /> range from off - street paths, often shared with pedestrians (Class I), on- street <br /> striped bike lanes (Class II) and on- street signed bike routes (class III).
