116 ~ CiTY OF SAN LEANDRO BiCYCLE & PEDESTRiAN MASTER PLAN <br />The sidewalk on the north side of Neptune Drive stops short of the Oyster Bay Regional Park <br />entrance. <br />B) PEDESTRIAN IMPROVEMENT AREAS <br />The following is a list of specific improvements that should be implemented <br />within each of the Pedestrian improvement Areas. These recommendations <br />will need further analysis and design per accepted local, State and national <br />standards and to ensure that they are feasible and appropriate. in addition, <br />a detailed cost analysis will be needed as a next step towards implementing <br />any of the following recommendations. Further detail about specific design <br />criteria for these recommendations can be found in the San Leandro Bicycle <br />and Pedestrian Design Guidelines (2007). <br />B-1: SAN LEANDRO MARINA <br />A. Improve Monarch Bay Drive Sidewalks and Crosswalks: Continuous <br />pedestrian pathways should be created on both sides of Monarch Bay <br />Drive in the Marina, to facilitate a safe pedestrian environment to this <br />major destination. Additionally, crosswalks, a minimum of 250 to 350 <br />feet apart, should be installed along Monarch Bay Drive to encourage <br />pedestrians to cross at safe locations. Further analysis of Monarch <br />Bay Drive will need to be performed to determine potential crosswalk <br />locations. To further improve the pedestrian environment of Monarch Bay <br />Drive, traffic calming measures should be considered to slow down vehicle <br />speeds. These improvements will be included in the redevelopment of the <br />Shoreline area. <br />B. Create a Pedestrian Crossing at the Intersection of Monarch Bay Drive <br />and Neptune Drive: This intersection is an important link between the <br />Marina and adjacent neighborhood. The intersection has been designed <br />with a median that prevents cars from turning left onto Neptune Drive <br />from Monarch Bay Drive. Unfortunately, this median limits bicycle and <br />pedestrian access to the neighborhood as well. This intersection should <br />be redesigned to include a safe pedestrian crosswalk and bicycle entry. <br />This project will be implemented as part of the shoreline redevelopment <br />project. <br />The Monarch Bay Drive/Neptune Drive intersection. <br />254
