Alameda CTC is the project sponsor for the East Bay Greenway: Lake Merritt BART to South Hayward BART Project (Project). The Project proposes to construct a bicycle and pedestrian facility that will generally follow the BART alignment for a distance of 16 miles and several cities, including San Leandro. The Project will connect seven BART stations as well as downtown areas, schools, and other major destinations. Benefits of the project include: • Improve cyclist and pedestrian network connectivity in communities along the BART line • Improve access to regional transit, schools, downtown area and other destinations • Create a facility that is accessible and comfortable for bicyclists and pedestrians of all ages and abilities • Improve safety for bicyclists and pedestrians • Support promotion of a multimodal transportation system and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions Citywide Plans, Policies, and Projects San Leandro Vision Zero Policy The City of San Leandro has joined the national commitment to eliminating traffic deaths and severe injuries. Several projects have been prioritized in the City to meet this comment, including increasing protection for bicyclists and pedestrians citywide, improving lighting conditions, and overall safety enhancements at both controlled and uncontrolled intersections. Several of the projects and plans below describe the different ways the City has committed to Vision Zero. San Leandro 2035 General Plan (2017) This plan presents a vision and strategy for the City’s future. It provides a comprehensive framework for the City’s physical, economic, social, and environmental development. The transportation element specifically addresses the movement of people and goods around and in the City of San Leandro. It presents a series of goals and policies to guide transportation decisions in the near future, including important issues like neighborhood traffic management, parking, traffic safety, and intergovernmental coordination. The following goals particularly focus on safety, and were taken in consideration in this LRSP: • Goal T-2: Design and operate streets to be safe, attractive, and accessible for all transportation users whether they are pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, or motorists, regardless of age of ability • Goal T-3: Promote and accommodate alternative, environmentally-friendly methods of transportation, such as walking and bicycling • Goal T-7: Improve traffic safety and reduce the potential for collisions on San Leandro streets
