BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS The Hesperian Boulevard Bike Lane Closure Project proposes Class IV separated bike lanes on Hesperian Boulevard from East 14th Street to Bay Fair Drive. The Project was identified in the City’s Local Roadway Safety Plan as a priority location based upon the number of collisions along the corridor. The proposed improvements align with the City’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan that recommends separated bike lanes along Hesperian Boulevard. In October 2024, MTC issued a coordinated Call for Projects for the Active Transportation Capital Design Technical Assistance Program for jurisdictions seeking technical assistance to support work focused on Climate Program Implementation and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Active transportation trips help to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This call has identified technical assistance for project design to help advance active transportation projects to construction as an eligible project. The Active Transportation Capital Design Technical Assistance Program supports Plan Bay Area 2050’s 19% per capita GHG emissions reduction target, as well as the Plan’s strategy to build a complete streets network to encourage walking, biking, and other mobility options. MTC seeks to achieve three main objectives as noted below, by investing in all All-Ages and Abilities (AAA) facilities on the Active Transportation (AT) Network: ·Equity - Invest in areas where there is the greatest need for affordable transportation options, and where active trips can connect people with transit services for longer distance Page 1 City of San Leandro Printed on 9/4/2025
