CC 03-19-2024 Study Session Item No. 1. Attachment F - 2021 Bollinger Road Corridor Safety Study0 CC 03-19-2024 Study Session Item No. 1. Attachment E 1 1.Study Introduction Bollinger Road is a 2.0-mile long east-west major collector street that connects between Lawrence Expressway and De Anza Boulevard, two major north-south arterials. The road lies along the border of Cupertino and San José, with Cupertino to the north and San Jose to the south. The road traverses through a residential neighborhood, which is home to four nearby elementary schools, Hyde Middle School, and Cupertino High School. The City of Cupertino has commissioned the Bollinger Road Corridor Safety Study (“Study”) to identify improvements to create a safer and more accessible corridor for pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, and motorists. The project team was composed of staff from the City of Cupertino, the City of San José, and the consultant team Kimley-Horn. The study area for this effort is Bollinger Road from De Anza Bo ulevard to Lawrence Expressway and can be seen in Figure 1. Figure 1. Study Area As part of the Study, an analysis of existing conditions and a summary of past collisions along the corridor was conducted. This was followed by an online public survey that gathered public input on location- specific improvement needs along the corridor. The feedback from the community was evaluated and used to create two conceptual corridor alternatives. These proposed alternatives were then presented to the community in a neighborhood meeting. Feedback was collected during the meeting as well as through a summarized online survey. The efforts performed for the study are summarized in this report. 2.Existing Conditions Bollinger Road is a four-lane roadway with two lanes in both the eastbound and westbound directions. The corridor has Class II bike lanes that run parallel to the vehicle travel lanes in both directions. On-street parking is available along most of the corridor in both directions. The parking is not time-constrained nor has any permit requirements. A roadway re-surfacing and re-striping project was recently completed prior to the start of this project in some segments of the corridor. The re-striping project added buffers to the Class II bike lanes in limited sections and high visibility crosswalks for some crossings. 2 Public transit along the corridor is provided by Santa Clara Valley Transit Authority (VTA) which operates Route 25 with several stops along the corridor in both directions. Most stops lack amenities such as shelters, trash receptacles, real-time arrival information, and benches. The corridor has complete sidewalk coverage on both sides of the street for the length of the corridor. It should be noted that parts of the corridor have overgrown shrubbery which reduces the effective sidewalk width. One of the observed conditions was the limited number of pedestrian crossings along Bollinger Road. There are crossings available at the six signalized intersections and one unsignalized crossing at Harlan Drive. The side-streets approaching Bollinger Road also have limited sidewalk striping. This makes it challenging, especially for transit riders and students, to access their destinations or stops. 2.1 Collision Analysis A collision analysis was conducted for the study area. The data was collected from the Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) for a five-year period from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2019. Table 1 below shows the total collisions by mode, as well as how many incidents involved pedestrians, bicyclists, motorcyclists, and autos. Table 1.

Two reported pedestrian collisions occurred in the area, both of which resulted in fatalities. These pedestrian collisions occurred at Miller Avenue and at Wunderlich Drive. 12% of collisions involved a bicyclist. To get a better understanding of the collisions that occurred, the location of each collision was also tabulated and can be found in Table 2. 3 Table 2.

Cells highlighted in red indicate fatalities. 40% of all the collisions reported in the study area were rear-end collisions. 15% of those rear-end collisions were attributed to unsafe speed. 16% of the collisions were broadside collisions due to improper turning, driver or bicyclist under the influence, misuse of traffic signals or signage, and right-of-way conflicts. Collisions are typically correlated to volume of traffic; streets with more vehicles or activity will have more collisions. This is reflected in the data for the intersections at De Anza Boulevard, Miller Avenue, and Lawrence Expressway, ranking as the locations with the most collisions. It should be noted, however, that locations such as Wunderlich Drive and Clifden Way had a relatively large number of collisions as well despite being lower volume residential streets. Both streets are in proximity to the major De Anza Boulevard and Lawrence Expressway intersections. 3.Community Priorities for Improvement The study utilized community input to better understand improvement needs and focus areas. The public engagement process was modified in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to be entirely virtual, consistent with state and county health guidelines at the time of collection. This virtual process still allowed for multiple engagement points with the community and resulted in a significant level of response from residents. An interactive corridor map and survey were created on Social PinPoint. Social PinPoint is a customizable community engagement platform. Notifications regarding the study and the round of outreach were posted on the City of San José and City of Cupertino website and social media channels. Additionally, postcards were e-blasted to residents in the study area. These websites can be accessed through the following links: https://engagekh.com/bollingerroad https://www.cupertino.org/our-city/departments/public-works/transportation-mobility/bollinger- road-corridor-safety-study During this initial public input round, members of the public could comment from February 5 until February 26, 2021. The survey included five questions asking respondents general demographic information, their mode of travel and relation to Bollinger Road. There were 247 survey responses. The responses to the questions can be found below: x What is your relationship to Bollinger Road? Please select all that apply. (Figure 2) x How often do you travel on Bollinger Road?

Survey Question – Race/Ethnicity of Respondents Figure 6. Survey Question – Age of Respondents For the interactive corridor map, community members were asked to drag pins to provide ideas and suggestions, identify something they like, make a comment, or make a suggestion at specific locations within the project area. They were also able to review other individuals’ comments and give each comment they supported a “thumbs-up” or “thumbs-down”. There was no limit to how many comments each individual could post or the number of comments they could support or oppose. There were 147 interactive feedback map comments and 734 comment engagements (thumbs- up/thumbs-down). These pins from the community are shown in Figure 7.

Interactive Map Feedback These responses helped guide the project team on the areas of need and what the community deemed as priorities. These priorities are ranked in Table 3 where the values closest to 5 indicate the highest priority and those closer to 1 being a lower community priority. Table 3. Community Priorities Category Average Prioritization Rating New or safer crossings at intersections for pedestrians and bicyclists 4.2 Safer or more comfortable bike lanes 3.8 Reduce vehicle speeds 3.7 Reduce vehicle congestion 3.7 Better lighting 3.6 Safer or more comfortable sidewalks 3.4 Improvements for people with disabilities 3.3 Better landscaping 2.7 Better access and amenities at bus stops 2.6 The priorities identified by the community were similar to the challenges identified by the project team while studying the existing conditions on the project corridor. These priorities included the 8 desire for more and safer pedestrian and bicycle crossings, improved bicycle facilities, and slower vehicle speeds. The community-mapped locations for improvement were most concentrated at signalized intersections and some of the unsignalized side-street approaches. Feedback and comments were carefully reviewed to ensure that proposed improvements aligned with the community’s identified needs. The feedback collected during this round of outreach is sorted in categories and provided in Appendix A. 4.Concept Development and Improvements The responses and suggestions provided in the first round of outreach were used to guide concept development. After determining the needs, the project team identified specific improvements that would address the challenges on the project corridor. Two alternatives were created to reflect different priorities and strategies for improving the corridor. Alternative A includes a road diet where the road would be reduced to one travel lane in each direction, including the provision of a center two-way left turn lane. Alternative B maintains the existing lane configuration while providing spot improvements, primarily at intersections. 4.1 Safety Improvements Although there are differences in the two alternative concepts, there were safety improvements identified that are common to both concepts. This section aims to describe these common elements as well as those particular to one of the concepts and how they improve safety. The following safety improvement elements are provided in both concepts: x Class IV Cycle Track Source: Kimley-Horn Cycle tracks provide separated travel lanes for bicycles in the road right-of-way. Separation from vehicle traffic is achieved via raised protection, which may consist of bollards, concrete curbs or planters, parked cars, or a combination of these features. 9 x Speed Feedback Signage Source: Carmanah Technologies Speed feedback signage provide drivers in vehicles with visual feedback of their speed in relation to the posted speed limit. When complemented with police enforcement, speed feedback signage can be an effective tool for reducing speeds at a desired location. x High-Visibility Pedestrian Crossings Source: NACTO High-Visibility Pedestrian Crossings help make crosswalks and pedestrians more visible to vehicles, increasing yielding behavior. x Bike Boxes Source: NACTO 10 Bike boxes are green-painted areas installed at an intersection between the auto stop bar and the pedestrian crosswalk, allowing bicyclists to move to the front of the auto queue, making them more visible as they enter the intersection first. x Two-Stage Turn Queue Boxes Source: NACTO Two-stage turn queue boxes are green-painted rectangles installed at intersections. These two- stage boxes allow bicyclists a space to safely queue when attempting a left-turn onto another street as well as improving their ability to safely make their turning movement. This allows cyclists to remain on the right-side of the road instead of being required to merge across to access a left-turn lane. x Curb Radii and Free-Right Turn Removals Source: Kimley-Horn Curb radius affects vehicle turning speeds and pedestrian crossing distances. Reducing the corner radius requires vehicles to slow down and thus be more likely to yield to pedestrians in a crosswalk. Free-right turns occur where slip lanes exist or at intersections with ‘pork-chop islands’ when vehicles do not need to stop at a signal light before making the turn. Since these are designed for unimpeded vehicle movement, they may be more hazardous for pedestrians and removing them can enhance pedestrian safety. 11 x Leading Pedestrian Intervals (LPI) Source: City of Long Beach Leading Pedestrian Intervals give pedestrians a head start before the corresponding signal movement also turns green. This head start time can vary but is typically at least 3 seconds. LPI allows pedestrians to enter the crosswalk before cars enter the intersection and makes them more visible to drivers that are making a turn. The following safety improvement elements are only provided in Alternative A: x Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB) Source: Pedestrian Safety Guide and Countermeasure Selection System A RRFB is a warning device that is activated by a button at a crosswalk. When activated, the beacon flashes yellow for a period of time that would allow a pedestrian to traverse the crossing, reminding drivers of their legal duty to yield to pedestrians using a crosswalk. Studies have shown that RRFB use increases driver yielding to pedestrians. 12 The following safety improvement elements are only provided in Alternative B: x Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon (PHB) Source: FHWA A Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon is a traffic control device that is activated by a pedestrian or bicycle user trying to cross a roadway. The PHB provides a solid red indicator requiring drivers to stop and allow pedestrians to cross. It then flashes yellow during the “flashing don’t walk” time to allow autos to proceed once the pedestrian has safely crossed. x Transit Islands Source: San Francisco Bicycle Coalition Transit islands are dedicated waiting and boarding areas for passengers that can help improve transit reliability and accessibility by allowing in-lane stops. Transit islands also eliminate bicycle-transit conflicts with the provision of a bicycle passageway behind the station. 4.2 Alternative A Alternative A includes a lane reduction on Bollinger Road, from two travel lanes in each direction to one travel lane in each direction and a two-way left-turn lane. Though there are similar elements between both alternatives, this concept provides more safety improvements for pedestrians and bicyclists. This includes longer stretches of protected Class IV bicycle facilities and more pedestrian crossings. This alternative includes some pedestrian crossings across Bollinger Road that are not shown in Alternative B because the reduced travel lanes allow for increased safety and comfort of pedestrian crossings. The safety elements included in this alternative are: •Bike boxes •Two-stage turn queue boxes •RRFB x Speed feedback signage x Class IV protected bike lanes x High-v isibility pedestrian crossings 13 One potential drawback to this alternative is the possible increase in vehicle delays and congestion on the corridor. To better understand these impacts, a complete traffic analysis may need to be conducted. Parking protected bicycle lanes were considered as part of this alternative but were not ultimately included due to the number of residential driveway conflicts. The alternative is shown in Figure 8. The cost estimate for this concept is provided in Appendix B. The cross-section for the alternative is in Appendix C.

This concept is more limited in the safety improvements that can be recommended due to right-of-way constraints. There were still opportunities to provide protected Class IV facilities in limited segments while maintaining existing on-street parking. One of the main differences from Alternative A is the fewer number of pedestrian crossings. Maintaining four lanes of travel makes it undesirable to provide new uncontrolled pedestrian crossings due to safety concerns. Another difference from Alternative A is the inclusion of transit islands in limited locations. These in-lane bus stops would reduce transit delays and remove the bus-bike conflict at stops. These are not proposed in Alternative A as there is only one travel lane in each direction in that concept, which would prevent autos from bypassing a dwelling bus. The safety elements proposed in this alternative are: x Bike boxes x Two-stage turn queue boxes x RRFB x Speed feedback signage x Class IV protected bike lanes x PHB x High-v isibility pedestrian crossings The alternative is shown in Figure 9. The cost estimate for this concept is provided in Appendix B. The cross-section for the alternative is in Appendix C.

Notifications were sent to residents and those who responded during the first round of outreach. These outreach for this event was similar to the first round of outreach. The meeting included a presentation introducing the study, explaining the existing conditions, summarizing the first round of outreach, and then explaining both proposed concepts along with their key attributes and differences. The meeting also included an interactive discussion session where attendees were able to provide written or verbal questions. The feedback during this meeting was supportive and appreciative of the study efforts. There were some concerns regarding how improvements would impact traffic but most of the attendees had a positive view of Alternative A and liked many of the safety improvements proposed in the concept. All participants were informed that feedback on the alternatives is encouraged following the meeting, and information regarding the project website and how to provide suggestions and comments on the alternatives was provided. The two improvement concepts were provided on the website and a survey was created to allow for feedback on the concepts. Similar to the interactive feedback map, respondents were able to drop pins at specific locations with “Something I Like”, “Ideas and Suggestions”, “Something I’d Like to Change”, and “Make a Comment”. The surveys were open for comments and feedback from May 12 until June 6, 2021. The feedback for Alternative A is shown in Figure 10 and the feedback received for Alternative B is shown in Figure 11. 22 Note: A full size interactive version of this graphic can be accessed at https://engagekh.com/bollinger_concepta_roaddiet_copy/map#/ Figure 10. Alternative A Community Feedback Note: A full size interactive version of this graphic can be accessed at https://engagekh.com/bollinger_conceptb_noroaddiet/map#/ Figure 11. Alternative B Community Feedback 23 Alternative A received 66 comments and had 139 unique users view the engagement map. As can be seen in Table 4, there were more positive, or supportive, rather than negative comments on Al ternative A. However, there were also more thumbs down, representing people who disagreed with those positive sentiments, than there were those who agreed. Similarly, there were fewer negative comments but more support for those comments that critiqued the concept. There was a nearly even split between people commenting or suggesting they wanted to change something with the concept as those who liked something with the concept. Most of the negative comments were associated with traffic concerns. There was very limited, if any, disapproval of any of the specific recommendations that would benefit pedestrian or bicycle safety. Table 4.

The engagement types are summarized in Table 5. Alternative B had more negative comments and things they would like to see changed in the concept. Most of the negative comments were seeking elements that are shown in Alternative A but were not included in Alternative B due to right-of-way constraints and safety concerns associated with providing those improvements while maintaining existing lane configuration.

The Study identified a range of improvements that would benefit pedestrian, bicycle, and auto safety along the Bollinger Road corridor. Based on this Study, funding for future project phases and project implementation can be pursued. The Study found a high level of community support for improvements that prioritized pedestrian and bicycle safety on the Bollinger corridor. In particular, improvements that encouraged improved crossings on Bollinger Road and better access to schools were particularly well supported. Overall support for a road diet was strong among many community members, although not universal. Once funding is identified further design and analysis work will be required. This includes a topographic and utilities survey of Bollinger Road, preliminary engineering and final design, and traffic analysis. The traffic analysis should determine the potential for the road diet (Alternative A) to increase congestion or divert traffic onto residential streets, and any corresponding mitigation measures to limit that impact. Community outreach efforts should continue in future project phases to ensure community awareness and support of the project. The improvements proposed in this study are not expected to be constructed or implemented as one comprehensive project. There are likely to be opportunities for grant funding to implement portions of the project, consistent with grant funding availability or specific grant purposes. Potential funding sources include the 2016 Measure B sales tax, the statewide Active Transportation Program (ATP), and the statewide Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP). Additional elements for further study include the implementation of pedestrian-scale lighting along the corridor and improvements to trail access. 6.Demonstration Activity: Traffic Enforcement Initiative Data from Table 2 shows us that the intersections at De Anza Boulevard, Miller Avenue, and Lawrence Expressway, ranked as the locations with the most collisions in the study. For this reason, we plan to partner with the County Sheriff's Office to implement a Traffic Enforcement Initiative in these key areas. Two agents will be appointed to these high risk areas to encourage safe driving and conduct along these areas. This initiative promotes the DOT's Safe System Approach and is proposed to be piloted for a year to enhance the proposed action plan. The estimated start date will be July 2024 until July 2025. This partnership aims to achieve the following strategic goals of the Department: •Promote safety to prevent death and serious injuries on public roadways; •Employ low-cost, high-impact strategies that can improve safety over a wide geographic area; •Ensure equitable investment in the safety needs of underserved communities, •Incorporate evidence-based projects and strategies and adopt innovative technologies and strategies; •Demonstrate engagement with a variety of public and private stakeholders 25 7.Appendix 26 Appendix A.

Community Comments on Conceptual Designs from Survey #2 (May 2021) Positive Comments Thumbs Up Thumbs Down All bike lanes should have solid barriers to prevent drivers from parking/driving in the bike lanes 10 14 Bike lanes should be fully protected, otherwise their safety is minimal 6 11 Consider bus boarding islands to speed buses and reduce bus/bike conflicts 5 11 love the markings, pedestrian ramps and radii reductions!1 0 love the RRFB!4 0 love alternative A!4 9 Drivers constantly turn right out of Hyde Middle School and merge into the median lane to make an illegal U-Turn.0 1 These changes will make this intersection safer for everyone.2 0 Having a crossing over Bollinger at Hyde Ave intersection has been on our wish list all these 16 years we've lived in Fairgrove neighborhood. We've crossed the road here often over the years, but that is only possible during lower traffic hours. Lack of crossing has encouraged many Fairgrove residents to go to Safeway and other mall services by car, a distance of only few hundred walkable yards. Crossing also increases the safety of Hyde students going for their after school bobas.1 0 Providing two-way left turning center lane is very helpful for all the residents who have a driveway facing Bollinger: easier access in and out of driveway during high traffic hours, and left turns onto properties will not slow the whole traffic.4 10 The RRFB and dedicated center turn lane will make this area so much safer for cars, bikes, and pedestrians. Perhaps each RRFB crossing can be slightly raised to further slow down traffic.5 2 Thank You for the RRFB and pavement marked crosswalk at Clifden Way! Please consider adding multi-sensory alerts (sounds and visible signals) for pedestrians who have activated the flashing beacon but may not be aware that it is flashing because of visual impairment or because they cannot see lights flashing on the pavement from their position on the sidewalk.1 0 I like the 2-lane plan. Between the curves, elevation changes, narrowing at creek over crossings, and heavy cross-traffic use, Bollinger Rd has challenges that are underappreciated by many travelers. The 2-lane option offers the best overall safety improvements.1 6 This is a key crossing for those going to Cupertino Library but right now it has no crosswalk.1 0 LOVE the protected bike lanes. Consider bus boarding islands to reduce conflict between cars, buses, and bikes.1 6 It's common to see people driving 50 mph on this curve.0 0 Going to two lanes with a center turn lane is great for reducing speeding and ensuring regular traffic flow. There are so many driveways along Bollinger. It makes sense to have a separate turn lane instead of making people start their turn from inside a traffic lane. This configuration has been successful in many other roads in the South Bay.2 6 Bike lanes need hard barriers. Also consider parking protected bike lanes, like on Stelling.1 4 I like the crosswalk at Lancer. I work at Hyde, and feel this in a dangerous spot and there is no way to get across without going all the way to Miller.2 0 like the bike lane 1 0 Having a protected bike lane along all of Bollinger is critical. There are no parallel neighborhood streets. Students at Hyde and Lynbrook need safe bike travel, not to mention anyone else accessing businesses on Bollinger. Cycling is a practical form of transportation, not a niche hobby.2 6 Having a protected bike lane along all of Bollinger is critical. There are no parallel neighborhood streets. Students at Hyde and Lynbrook need safe bike travel, not to mention anyone else accessing businesses on Bollinger. Cycling is a practical form of transportation, not a niche hobby.1 6 Alternative A I really applaud having a pedestrian crossing here. It's critical for bus users to be able to cross at this location, and I understand that there have been serious accidents in the past. Given the width of the road, there should definitely be high-intensity flashing beacons available for crossing.0 0 introduce traffic calming measures (speed bumps, signage, whatever works) to reduce speed as drivers enter the neighborhood. Compress or otherwise mitigate the sweeping curves of Rancho to slow down drivers and protect cyclists and pedestrians.0 0 My child takes this route when biking to school and friends. Eliminating the free right turns on Bollinger will give me peace of mind. Bollinger Road is part of my neighborhood, not a race track. It must serve cyclists and pedestrians as much as it serves motorists. SUM 55 92 Negative Comments Thumbs Up Thumbs Down Do not reduce Bollinger from 4 lanes (2 each wayby introducing a dedicated left turn lane etc. All 4 lanes are required to handle the traffic. In the past, when Bollinger got backed up, people would cut through the adjacent neighborhoods at high speed, making the situation even more dangerous. Leave Bollinger for the through traffic and preserve the neighborhoods for biking, walking, etc.14 5 slowing traffic may make sense, but reducing lanes from four to two is a recipe for disaster.11 7 if you reduce to two lanes, the traffic lanes will be solid with cars and a left turn center lane will be of no use at all. Keep all four lanes.1 5 I have concerns that reducing each side to one lane, with a designated middle turn lane, will back traffic up during heavy traffic. I also worry about the center lanes being abused by individuals trying to weave in and out of traffic in this scenario. I would like to see traffic slow down to the speed limit (it would allow for safer slowdowns when cars signal to turn, and opportunities to merge to the other lane), but I do not think reducing the number of lanes is the best way to go about it.6 2 SUM 32 19 Spot Improvements Thumbs Up Thumbs Down provide 2 stage queue turn box on all 4 corners at deanza and bollinger 3 0 prohibit right on red at this intersection 3 11 provide 2 stage bike queue turn box at all 4 corners 4 0 Provide an entrance to the hyde parking lot to avoid automoble queueing the bike lane on bollinger 3 1 Make this median longer to keep people from making left turns (u-turns) out of the Hyde parking lot. Shopping customers can go out of the parking lot onto Miller instead of turning left onto Bollinger.1 1 Create a cement barrier to prevent drivers from making an illegal U-turn coming out of HMS.3 4 What really is needed at this intersection is enforcement of the traffic light by the Sheriff Dept. People on Bollinger run the traffic light to make a left turn onto DeAnza long after the light has turned red. This results in people leaving Home Depot, etc. then either having a very short light or also running the yellow light to go straight on Bollinger past DeAnza. I have never seen the Sheriff or Highway Patrol doing enforcement at this intersection.3 0 Modify entry into Hdye to eliminate queuing for entry to Hyde. If you narrow the road to 1 lane each way and allow the current situation you will effectively close Bollinger Ave during kid pick up time. Close the entrance from Bollinger to Hyde and only allow entry from Hyde street (with a divider preventing left turn into the lot for people turning off Bollinger to Hyde ). Force the queue to be on Hyde street, not Bollinger.1 14 Please introduce traffic controls to slow down cars coming off of Lawrence.6 0 Alternative A I think that the bus stop at Bollinger and Miller should be put midway between the intersection and the first driveway out of the shopping center. The bus could block people turning right from miller onto Bollinger is it is too close to the intersection and it will be too close to the driveway out of the shopping center. You have to be able to see around the bus.1 0 All of Bollinger Road seems to have been created for cars to go faster than is safe, but this stretch of road, between Blaney and Alderbrook, is curved in a way that particularly invites speeding. Please consider options to further slow down traffic here.7 0 Factor in that many people come out of Chelmsford Dr. and make a U-turn at Wunderlich Dr. to go east.1 0 If cut-through traffic can be anticipated under the 2-lane plan, maybe some neighborhood streets can be closed to through traffic.0 6 Fatal collisions have occurred here. The turn radius is far too wide and is designed to encourage speeding. Create a protected intersection for bicycles.2 0 Add transit signal priority to allow buses to pass through intersections faster and avoid red lights. VTA route 25 is a major bus route and lots of people rely on it. Cupertino and San Jose should work with VTA's Fast Transit Program. They can do a lot to make the bus faster and easier to ride.3 3 This bus stop has no shelter or bench.0 0 New stop needs to have a shelter and bench like the old one.0 0 Can you put in a crosswalk here across Bollinger? There is no place to cross except at Miller, so kids run across the street 5 0 Add transit signal priority so that buses can avoid long waits at major intersections.0 6 Crosswalk is needed here to complete the pedestrian network.1 0 Alternative A Positive Comments Thumbs Up Thumbs Down Transit island with shelter will greatly enhance the bus experience and reduce traffic conflict.1 0 Like 0 0 Agree to this. Even better to add road flashers that lines this pedestrian crosswalk 1 0 SUM 2 0 Negative Comments Thumbs Up Thumbs Down Bike lanes do not follow the whole length of the road and almost all of them lack meaningful protection 7 0 Bike lane configuration on the north side of bollinger seems to be missing 3 0 need more pedestrian uncontrolled high visibility Rapid Flashing Light crossings in option B!3 0 Do not reduce the curb turn radius. People need to be able to turn onto Chelmsford drive without getting rear ended by traffic behind them on Bollinger.2 3 Speeds get way too high here, especially with two lanes in each direction and very wide travel lanes. Feels like I'm on Central Expressway.3 2 Bike lane must be consistently protected across the whole length of the road. Consider: Would you let your child ride to school here?2 2 Extend bike lane to allow for further motor visibility.1 0 SUM 21 7 Spot Improvements Thumbs Up Thumbs Down provide bike 2 stage turn queue boxes at all 4 corners 3 0 provide bike 2 stage turn queue boxes at all 4 corners 3 0 provide bike 2 stage turn queue boxes at all 4 corners 2 0 prohibit right on red at this intersection 1 6 Add a light for the right turn from Lawrence to Bollinger that can be activated by a pedestrian walk button. People ignore pedestrians currently. Also activate the stop light when people are making a left from Lawrence onto Bollinger (heading toward Tantau). People make the right turn when they do not have the right of way, making it dangerous.1 0 Add Traffic cameras with automatic ticket issuance for people who run the red light. This is a constant problem, especially for people turning left from Bollinger onto DeAnza. I have never seen the Sheriff's dept do enforcement at this intersection.1 0 Extend the left only lane for turning from Bollinger onto Johnson to eliminate people cutting into the oncoming traffic lane to avoid the backup of people ahead of them waiting for the light to change.0 0 Add transit signal priority to speed up buses and prevent delays at intersections. Work with VTA's Fast Transit program. Many people, especially elders and young students rely on the bus. They need transit that is fast, safe and reliable. In the future, consider turning the parking lane or one of the travel lanes into a bus only lane.1 0 Need pedestrian crosswalk here to complete connected Pedestrian network.0 0 Add pedestrian crosswalk to Complete the pedestrian crosswalk network.0 0 Alternative B
