138 ~ CiTY OF SAN LEANDRO BiCYCLE & PEDESTRiAN MASTER PLAN <br />A San Leandro Police Department bicycle officer. <br />either the bicyclist or motorist continue to be the most common cause of <br />motor vehicle-bicycle collisions. <br />50 of the 57 collisions occurred at or within close proximity (150 feet) of an <br />intersection. The intersection of East 14th Street and 144th Avenue was <br />reported as the intersection with the highest number (2) of bicycle collisions. <br />Each of the remaining 55 collisions occurred at unique intersections. <br />The roadway with the greatest number of bicycle collisions along its length <br />was East 14th Street in the 1997 Plan. The 2004 Plan reported Washington <br />Avenue as the location with the greatest number of collisions. The current <br />data (including collisions near its cross streets) again identifies East 14th Street <br />as the roadway with the greatest number of bicycle-involved collisions (nine). <br />Two streets had five reported bicycle-involved collisions: Doolittle Drive and <br />Marina Boulevard. Lewelling Boulevard had four bicycle-involved collisions <br />and Bancroft Avenue and Fairway Drive had three bicycle-involved collisions <br />each. 144th Avenue, Lark Street, Fargo Avenue, Farnsworth Street, Hesperian <br />Boulevard, San Leandro Boulevard, and Washington Avenue each had two <br />collisions. <br />BICYCLE FATALITY ANALYSIS <br />During this data reporting period, there was one bicycle fatality that occurred <br />near the intersection of Marina Avenue and Pacific Avenue. This collision <br />occurred in 2013. The cause of the accident was determined to be an improper <br />turning movement by the bicyclist. Bicycle facilities are not proposed for Marina <br />Boulevard, but Marina should be studied for traffic calming improvements to <br />make the boulevard more accessible for active transportation users, especially <br />due to the close proximity to Marina Square and other attractions. <br />Figure 23 displays bicycle collision locations with injury severity throughout <br />the City of San Leandro. <br />276
