CiTY OF SAN LEANDRO BiCYCLE & PEDESTRiAN MASTER PLAN ~ 193 <br />6,000 feet south in San Leandro. The study provided design elements to <br />provide an attractive, pedestrian oriented setting for commercial activity by <br />slowing traffic speeds, enhancing pedestrian safety and improving visibility of <br />fronting businesses. <br />Bicycle and Pedestrian Design Guidelines (2007) <br />The Bicycle and Pedestrian Design Guidelines provides specifics about how <br />to design various bikeway and pedestrian facilities. These design guidelines <br />also provides information about bicycle and pedestrian amenities such as bike <br />racks and corrals and street lights. <br />Regional Plans <br />Bay Trail Plan (1989) + Summary and Design <br />Guidelines (2015 & 2016 respectively) <br />The San Francisco Bay Trail Project is administered and funded by the <br />Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG). The San Francisco Bay Trail Plan <br />is the guiding vision for a regional recreational corridor that, when complete, <br />will encircle San Francisco and San Pablo Bays with a continuous 400-mile <br />network of bicycling and hiking trails. it will connect the shoreline of all nine <br />Bay Area counties, link 47 cities, and cross the major toll bridges in the region. <br />To date, approximately 240 miles of the alignment have been completed. <br />The main component of the Bay Trail, the "spine trail," parallels the shoreline <br />through San Leandro and traverses the Oyster Bay Regional Shoreline and San <br />Leandro Marina areas; additional spur trails extend to inland neighborhoods. <br />Alameda Countywide Bicycle Plan (2012) <br />The Alameda Countywide Bicycle Plan presents a network of cross-county <br />bike routes. The Plan includes goals and objectives targeted at integrating <br />bicycling with key destinations and other travel modes, promoting safety and <br />awareness of bicycle transportation, improving existing high-usage bicycle <br />corridors, and identifying new bike routes. Alameda countywide bicycle routes <br />are corridors that traverse multiple local roadways or trails with the intent of <br />creating continuous, long-distance bicycle routes. <br />Alameda County Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan <br />for Unincorporated Areas (2012) <br />The Alameda Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan for <br />Unincorporated Areas includes a parallel set of goals and objectives to those <br />of the main Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Plans. Whereas the main <br />Countywide Plan focuses on primary bicycle routes and regional connectivity, <br />the Bicycle Plan for Unincorporated Areas presents local bicycle networks <br />and proposed projects for areas not included within incorporated cities, such <br />as the San Lorenzo and Castro valley areas south and east of San Leandro, <br />respectively. <br />Alameda Countywide Strategic Pedestrian Plan <br />(2012) <br />Like the Alameda Countywide Bicycle Plan, the Countywide Strategic <br />Pedestrian Plan identifies a vision with goals and objectives that targets <br />and prioritizes pedestrian projects of countywide significance. By improving <br />walking facilities, connectivity, and safety, the Plan aims to increase the <br />volume of walking trips in Alameda County. The Plan also includes a companion <br />piece, the Toolkit for improving Walkability in Alameda County, which offers <br />strategies to enhance walking and walkability through policy, planning, design <br />standards, education, and programs. <br />331
