CiTY OF SAN LEANDRO BiCYCLE & PEDESTRiAN MASTER PLAN ~ 107 <br />Needs Assessment <br />The City of San Leandro has an extensive pedestrian network requiring <br />constant maintenance and rehabilitation in order to meet the growing needs <br />of its pedestrians. The City contains many roads that were built to primarily <br />serve the automobile, and thus do not provide a high level of pedestrian <br />infrastructure. As a result, there are many locations throughout the City <br />that provide sidewalks without any added features that would encourage <br />walking or help to create a comfortable pedestrian environment. Many of the <br />Pedestrian improvement Areas contain neighborhood commercial centers or <br />other destinations such as schools and parks that are visited on a daily basis. <br />These areas need pedestrian amenities and upgrades to encourage walking <br />and the creation of a safe and inviting environment. <br />Throughout the City, many sidewalks, crosswalks, and curb ramps need to be <br />upgraded to meet current ADA standards. ADA standards have evolved since <br />many of the original accessibility improvements were implemented, and the <br />City is working to make these upgrades to meet current standards. in many <br />cases meeting ADA standards is a complex task because of the limited spatial <br />resources. <br />The Floresta Boulevard/Monterey Boulevard intersection <br />245
