SHARED-USE PATHS (CLASS I)
+ Consider providing amenities such as restrooms, bike
racks, and portable water at trailheads, and covered rest stops along the trail to ensure that paths are welcoming to a variety of user types, including families with children and seniors.
+ Consider providing maps and signs to improve wayfinding for users, such as signs that show trail names, connections to nearby trails, and/or nearby destinations.
+ Bollards within the clear width of shared-use paths are generally discouraged due to increased crash risk and
potential delays to emergency response. Instead, prioritize regulatory signage, clear visual cues indicating the facility is not intended for motor vehicle use, and entry designs that discourage vehicle access without introducing fixed obstacles. Where physical measures are necessary,
use markings and geometric design elements, such as
narrowed or split path entries, to deter vehicle intrusion while maintaining a clear, predictable path for shared-use path users.
+ Center line striping is optional on shared-use paths and should be applied strategically based on context and
safety needs. When used, center lines help separate
opposing travel directions and may be applied continuously or at targeted locations, such as curves with limited
sight distance, unlit segments where nighttime use is
expected, approaches to intersections, or near centerline obstructions like bollards.

SEPARATED BIKE LANES (CLASS IV)
Separated bike lanes are a dedicated bikeway facility type that combines the user experience of a shared-use path with the on-street infrastructure of a conventional bike lane. They are physically separated from motor vehicle traffic by a vertical element and are distinct from the sidewalk. Separated bike lanes can be constructed at sidewalk grade, roadway grade, or an intermediate grade between the sidewalk and street. Separated bike lanes can be designed to serve one-way bicyclist traffic or two-way bicyclist traffic. + Separated bike lanes are preferred over shared-use
paths in higher density areas, commercial and mixed-use development, and near major transit stations or locations where peak pedestrian volumes are anticipated to exceed 200 people per hour on a shared use path.
+ Separated bike lanes are more attractive to a wider range of bicyclists than striped bikeways on higher volume and higher speed roads since they are designed to prevent
motor vehicles from driving or waiting in the bikeway. They also provide greater comfort to pedestrians by separating them from bicyclists operating at higher speeds.
+ Choice of one- or two-way facility should be based on connectivity, bicyclist desire lines, roadway configuration, and potential intersection conflicts. Generally, one-way facilities are preferred.
+ The allocation of space can vary from midblock locations to intersection approaches. Providing a larger street buffer at intersections can be achieved by tapering the bike lane toward the sidewalk as it approaches the intersection and narrowing or eliminating the sidewalk buffer.
+ See Driveways section in Chapter 5 for details on how to address driveway crossings.
+ Separated bike lanes are a dedicated bike-only facility type and should be considered on any road with one or more of the following characteristics:
+ Traffic lanes: 3 lanes or greater.
+ Posted speed limit: 30 mph or more.
+ Traffic: 6,000 vehicles per day or greater.
+ On-Street parking turnover: frequent.
+ Streets that are designated as truck or bus routes.
+ One-way separated bike lanes should be 5’ wide minimum but widths of 7’ are preferred to allow for passing.
+ Buffer width may vary depending on type of vertical
separation used, but typically is 3’ wide. If adjacent to onstreet parking, a minimum 3’-wide buffer is required.

Buffered bike lanes are created by painting a buffer zone between the bike lane and the adjacent travel lane. While buffers are typically used between bike lanes and motor vehicle travel lanes to increase bicyclists’ comfort, they can also be provided between bike lanes and parking lanes in locations with high parking turnover to discourage bicyclists from riding too close to parked vehicles.
+ Can be used on one-way or two-way streets.
+ Consider placing buffer next to parking lane where there is commercial or metered parking.
+ When 7’ of pavement width is available, consider providing a 5-foot bike lane with a 2-foot buffer.
+ Buffered bike lanes allow bicyclists to ride side by side or to pass slower moving bicyclists. A larger buffer and/or bike lane is acceptable in cases where sufficient/excess pavement width is available.
+ Preferable to a conventional bike lanes when used as a contra-flow bike lane on one-way streets.
+ As noted in the Bicycle Facility Selection section earlier in this chapter, Where the preferred bikeway facility may not be feasible (such as a street with a posted speed greater than 30 mph and existing Class II bike lanes that cannot accommodate Class IV separated bike lanes), consider
reducing the posted speed limit, consistent with state
law, and/or installing traffic calming features to reduce roadway speed or volumes in order match the bicycle
facility to road conditions. In this example, enhancing the existing bike lanes to Class II buffered bike lanes can be paired with reducing the posted speed limit to 30 mph.
+ Place buffered or unbuffered bike lanes next to travel lane where speeds are 30 mph or slower and when traffic volume are fewer than 6,000 vehicles per day.
+ Bike lanes must be a minimum of 4 feet wide and ideally 5–6 feet wide, with an additional painted buffer of at least 2 feet (or 3 feet when adjacent to parking). Consistent with AASHTO guidance, where bike lanes are located adjacent
to a gutter or pan that is less than 5 feet wide, the gutter area should not be counted toward the effective bike lane width, as it does not provide usable operating space for bicyclists.

Bike lanes provide an exclusive space for bicyclists in the roadway. Bike lanes are established through the use of lines and symbols on the roadway surface. Bike lanes are for one-way travel and are normally provided in both directions on two-way streets or on one side of a one-way street. Bicyclists are not required to remain in a bike lane when traveling on a street and may leave the bike lane as necessary to make turns, pass other bicyclists, or to properly position themselves for other necessary movements. + Can be used on one-way or two-way streets.
+ Bike lanes may be enhanced with consistent use of conflict area striping, preferably with green-colored pavement,
including right turn lanes & major driveways. More details can be found in the “Bikeway Intersection and Spot
Treatments” section.
+ Word/Symbol markings should be applied before & after intersections.
+ Stopping, standing and parking in bike lanes may be
problematic in areas of high parking demand and
deliveries, especially in commercial areas. Use of sign R7-9 (or R7-9a) and/or red curbs may be used to discourage
parking in bike lanes.
+ Wider bike lanes or buffered bike lanes are preferable at locations with high parking turnover or higher volumes of bicyclists during peak hours.
+ Place bike lanes next to travel lane where speeds are 25 mph or slower and when traffic volume are fewer than
6,000 vehicles per day.
+ Bike lanes must be a minimum of 4’ wide, but ideally
should be 5-6’ wide. When adjacent to on-street parking, bike lanes should be a minimum of 5’ wide. Consistent with AASHTO guidance, where bike lanes are located adjacent
to a gutter or pan that is less than 5 feet wide, the gutter area should not be counted toward the effective bike lane width, as it does not provide usable operating space for bicyclists.
+ Parking T’s or hatch marks can highlight the door zone on constrained corridors with high parking turnover to guide bicyclists away from doors. (See rightmost graphic above.)

BICYCLE BOULEVARD (CLASS III)
Bicycle boulevards are applied on quiet streets, often through residential neighborhoods. These treatments are designed to prioritize bicycle through-travel, while calming motor vehicle traffic and maintaining relatively low motor vehicle volumes. Treatments vary depending on context, but often include elements of traffic calming and measures to discourage cut-through traffic, including traffic diverters, speed attenuators such as speed humps or chicanes, pavement markings, and signs. Bicycle boulevards are also known as neighborhood greenways or neighborhood bikeways, among other locally-preferred terms. + Many cities already have Class III bike routes along
neighborhood streets that provide an alternative to
traveling on high-volume, high-speed arterials. Applying bicycle boulevard treatments to these routes makes them more suitable for bicyclists of all abilities and can reduce crashes.
+ Stop signs or traffic signals (where possible and allowed by warrant) should be placed along the bicycle boulevard in a way that prioritizes the bicycle movement, minimizing stops and delays for bicyclists whenever possible.
+ Agencies may consider implementing bicycle boulevard
treatments on one pilot corridor to measure the impacts and gain community support. The pilot program should
include before-and-after crash studies, motor vehicle
counts, and bicyclist counts on both the bicycle boulevard and parallel streets. Findings from the pilot program can be used to justify bicycle boulevard treatments on other neighborhood streets.
+ Additional treatments for major street crossings may be needed, such as median refuge islands, rectangular rapid flashing beacons, bicycle signals, or Pedestrian Hybrid Beacons.
+ Bicycle boulevards can generally be considered on any road with one or more of the following characteristics:
+ Maximum Average Daily Traffic (ADT): 3,000
+ Preferred ADT: up to 1,000
+ Target speeds for motor vehicle traffic are typically around 20-25 mph; there should be a maximum 15 mph speed
differential between bicyclists and vehicles.
+ Bicycle boulevards feature regularly spaced traffic calming treatments to slow vehicles and meet target vehicle
speeds. See “Traffic Calming” section.
+ Refer to State Bill 1216 for new Class III bicycle facility requirements beginning January 1, 2025.
+ Provide clear wayfinding to help users navigate to and along bike boulevards, supporting connectivity within the broader bicycle network (see Wayfinding page 52).

+ When posted speed limits or 85th percentile speeds
exceed 50 mph and/or if heavy vehicles frequently use
the road, shoulders should exceed minimum widths to
enhance bicyclist comfort.
+ Edge line rumble strips can provide additional bicyclist protection on paved shoulders. The width of a shoulder
with rumble strips should be measured from the rightmost side of the rumble strip. Periodic gaps should be provided to allow bicyclists to move across the strip pattern.
+ On rural roadways with higher traffic volumes (e.g., ADT above approximately 6,000–7,000 vehicles per day,

+ Paved shoulders are particularly important for improving comfort and safety for bicyclists on roadways that meet any or all of the following conditions:
+ Inadequate sight distances for the typical operating
speed,
+ Grades in excess of 5 percent, or
+ High percentages (> 10 percent) of heavy vehicles.
+ When it is not possible to install paved shoulders on both sides of the roadway, climbing lanes (paved shoulders
on one side of the roadway in the uphill direction) provide dedicated space for people to bicycle uphill allowing faster vehicular traffic to pass comfortably.
+ On roadway sections with vertical or horizontal curves that limit sight distance, it can be helpful to provide shoulders over the crest and on the downgrade of a vertical curve or on the inside of a horizontal curve.
+ Refuge areas are paved or unpaved locations adjacent to the roadway where bicyclists may pull over to stop for rest or allow traffic to pass. Refuge areas should have adequate visibility for bicyclists pulling in and out to avoid conflicts with moving traffic. It may also be necessary to restrict parking in refuge areas to ensure that parked vehicles do not inhibit the use of the space by bicyclists or create sight distance obstructions.

BIKE BOXES
SINGLE
A bike box provides dedicated space between the crosswalk and vehicle stop line where bicyclists can wait in front of motor vehicles during the red light at signalized intersections. Bike boxes are primarily used to mitigate conflicts between through bicyclists and right-turning motorists and to reduce conflicts between motorists and bicyclists at the beginning of the green signal phase.
+ Bike boxes should be a minimum of 10 ft in depth and may be larger depending on anticipated bicyclist volumes.
+ The bike box should connect directly to the approaching bike lane. At least 50 ft of bike lane should be provided on the approach to a bike box so bicyclists will not need to ride between lanes to enter the box. The approaching bike lane, and the bike box, may be colored green.
+ Install advance stop bar where crosswalk serves as limit line for existing facilities; also consider pavement marking or signage (such as MUTCD R10-6).
+ Applicable at signalized intersections with high bicycle or motor vehicle volumes, especially those with frequent bicyclist left turns and/or motorist right turns.
+ Recommended where a left turn is required to follow a designated bike route, access a shared-use path, or when the bicycle lane moves to the left side of the street.
+ When a bike box is implemented in front of a vehicle lane that previously allowed right turns on red, the right turn on red movement must be restricted using signage and
enforcement once a bike box is installed.
+ A bicycle box should only extend across one travel lane. In limited situations, bike boxes may be used to facilitate left turns for bicycles when there is an unusually heavy left turn volume, such as near the entrance to a popular shared use path, although the preferred treatment for bicylist left turns is a two-stage bicycle turn box.
+ See Bicycle Signals (Chapter 5) for use of dedicated bike signal or hybrid signal with advance green for bicycles.

TWO-STAGE
A two-stage turn box designates a space for bicyclists to wait for traffic to clear before proceeding in a different direction of travel. Two-stage turn queue boxes may be used with any type of bicycle facility. A two-stage turn queue box should be considered where separated bike lanes are continued up to an intersection and a protected intersection is not provided.
+ Two stage turn boxes are applicable at locations where a left turn movement is expected by bicyclists.
+ A two-stage bicycle turn box may be used at signalized intersections per FHWA Interim Approval IA-20, though
experimental approval from FHWA is required to use this pavement marking at unsignalized intersections.
+ May be used at any signalized intersection but are
preferable on high-volume and multilane roads to reduce the need for bicyclist weaving across motor vehicle traffic. + Two-stage bicycle turn boxes should be placed in a logical location that aligns with the receiving bicycle facility. They can be placed in front of a through lane, in front of a turn lane, or entirely outside of a motor vehicle lane.
+ Dashed bike lane extension markings may be used to
indicate the path of travel across the intersection.
+ Passive detection of bicycles in the two-stage bicycle turn box must be provided if detection is required to actuate a traffic signal.
+ Both driver and bicyclists public education is
recommended to support greater understanding of
purpose and correct use of two stage bike boxes. + A two-stage bicycle turn box:
+ Must be located outside of the path of through and
turning traffic.
+ Should be located adjacent to the direct path of
bicyclist travel.
+ Should be located downstream of the crosswalk and
downstream of the stop line.
+ Must include a bicycle symbol oriented in the direction in which the bicyclists enter the box, along with an
arrow showing the direction of the turn.
+ May include green-colored pavement.
+ A NO RIGHT TURN ON RED sign, R13-A(CA), must be
installed where a two-stage turn queuing box is not located outside the path of right-turning traffic to prevent motorists from entering the bicycle queuing area.

A mixing zone designates space for turning motorists to merge across a separated bike lane at a defined location in advance of an intersection. The mixing zone design limits bicyclists’ exposure to motor vehicles by defining a limited merge area for the turning motorist. Mixing zones are compatible only with one-way bike lanes.
GUIDANCE
+ Locate merge points where the entering speeds of motor vehicles will be 20 mph or less by (a) minimizing the length of the merge area and (b) locating the merge point as close as practical to the intersection.
+ Minimize the length of the storage portion of the turn lane + Provide a buffer and physical separation (e.g. flexible delineator posts) from the adjacent through lane after the merge area, if feasible.
+ Highlight the conflict area with green surface coloring and dashed bike lane markings, as necessary, or shared lane markings placed on a green box.
+ Provide a BEGIN RIGHT (or LEFT) TURN LANE YIELD TO
BIKES sign (R4-4) at the beginning of the merge area.
+ Restrict parking within the merge area
+ At locations where raised separated bike lanes approach the intersection, the bike lane should transition to street elevation at the point where parking terminates.
+ Where posted speeds are 35 mph or higher, or at locations where it is necessary to provide additional storage
for queued vehicles, it may be necessary to provide a
deceleration/storage lane in advance of the merge point. + Protected intersections with phase separation between bicyclists and right-turning motorists are preferable to mixing zones. Mixing zones are generally appropriate as an interim solution or in situations where severe right-ofway constraints make it infeasible to provide a protected intersection.
+ Mixing zones are only appropriate on street segments with one-way separated bike lanes. They are not appropriate
for two-way separated bike lanes due to the contra-flow bicycle movement.

GUIDANCE CONSIDERATIONS
DYNAMIC WARNING SYSTEMS
Bicycling on narrow, rural roads can present unique hazards, particularly in areas of Napa County with steep topography, blind curves, and presence of large agricultural or recreational vehicles. Dynamic Warning Systems utilize active detection (via in-ground inductive loops or other technologies) to activate flashing beacons, alerting drivers to the presence of bicyclists on a roadway.
+ Dynamic Warning Systems are best utilized along existing popular bicycling routes that lack dedicated bicycle
facilities.
+ Beacons should be combined with BICYCLE (W11-1) sign
and AHEAD (W16-9P) sign.

Dynamic Warning Systems: A Review of Applications and Effectiveness. 2021.
+ Systems should be located strategically at locations
near blind curves, steep grades, or other locations where bicyclists using the roadway may not be readily apparent to other road users.
+ Installation locations should avoid areas where roadway congestion may exist (eg: near intersections or major
driveways) or where pullouts or other road design features may result in less accurate system operation.
+ As a relatively new safety treatment, conducting pre- and post-project vehicle and bike volume and speed counts will help inform future use of this technology.

Where a bicycle facility crosses an intersection or higher volume driveway, the delineation of bicycle space through the intersection using dashed line increases the legibility of the bikeway and raises awareness of bicyclists to other roadway users. Bicycle lane extension markings, also called conflict area markings, may be used with any Class II or Class IV bike lane across driveways, through intersections, or in separated bike lane mixing zones. See Protected Intersections graphic for illustration of extension markings at an intersection. + A variety of pavement marking symbols can enhance
intersection treatments to guide bicyclists and warn of potential conflicts.

+ Driveways with higher volumes may require additional
pavement markings and signage.
+ Consideration should be given to using intersection
pavement markings as spot treatments or standard
intersection treatments. A corridor wide treatment can
maintain consistency; however, spot treatments can be
used to highlight conflict locations.

+ Green pavement markings, where utilized, may be applied in a solid or dashed pattern within a dashed bicycle lane to indicate conflict areas and where merging maneuvers are permitted, such as across intersections, driveways, and at STOP or YIELD-controlled cross-streets.
+ Green pavement markings shall be placed before the
stop bar at the intersection and continue through the
intersection. Dashed marking should be aligned with the approaching/receiving bike lane.

Mountable truck aprons reduce turning speeds for passenger vehicles, yet accommodate the occasional large vehicle without encroachment or off-tracking into pedestrian waiting areas. + The mountable surface should be visually distinct from the adjacent travel lane, sidewalk and separated bike lane. + The heights of mountable areas and curbs should be no more than 3 inches above the travel lane to accommodate lowboy trailers.
+ Mountable truck aprons have a preferred corner radius of 15’.
+ Truck aprons are typically constructed with asphalt or concrete but may also be constructed with pavement
markings and bolt-down speed bumps aligned
perpendicular to the roadway edge as an interim strategy. + Mountable truck aprons are part of the traveled way and should be designed to discourage pedestrian or bicycle
refuge.
+ Bicycle stop bars, detectable warning surfaces, traffic signal equipment and other intersection features must be located behind the mountable surface area.
+ While bicyclist and pedestrian safety is negatively impacted by wide crossings, bicyclists and pedestrians are also at risk if the curb radius is too small. Curb radii that are too small for large vehicles to navigate can result in the rear wheels of a truck tracking over queuing areas at the corner.
Maintenance problems are also caused when trucks must
regularly drive over street corners to make turns.
+ For related information, see Corners and Curb Radii and Curb Extensions sections in Chapter 3.

AT-GRADE RAILROAD CROSSINGS
Railroad tracks that interface with bicycle facilities can be hazardous. Tracks running along bike facilities create hazards for bicyclists traveling parallel to the tracks as well as when turning across the tracks. + Railroad crossings should be designed to allow bicyclists to cross at an angle between 60 and 90 degrees to
minimize their risk of crashing. This may require wider paved shoulders to accomplish.
+ Provide clear delineation with pavement markings
indicating to bicyclists where they should travel to cross railroad tracks at an optimum location.
+ Provide adequate sight lines for approaching bicyclists to see approaching trains at rail crossings.
+ Provide warning signs to alert bicyclists of the crossing ahead.
REFERENCES
GUIDANCE CONSIDERATIONS
+ Railroad crossings may require supplemental traffic control devices approved by the rail authority; in unique situations, design solutions may include a separate bridge structure to avoid at-grade crossings.
+ Provide, as practicable, the best track surface treatment for bicyclists. Concrete produces the smoothest ride for bicyclists, even under wet conditions. This is preferred to rubber, which can become slippery when wet and degrade
over time; asphalt, which can deform or heave over time; and timber, which wears down relatively rapidly and can be slippery when wet.
+ Reduce the flangeway width to minimize the possibility of bicycle wheels getting caught in the opening.
+ Alternative crossing facilities (eg., Class I) may be appropriate (as opposed to shared roadway/shoulder) in
locations where higher volumes or bicycle or pedestrian users are expected, or where a history of incidents is
present.

30NAPA COUNTYWIDE ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION PLAN - TREATMENT TOOLKIT Sidewalks play a critical role in the character, function, enjoyment, and accessibility of neighborhoods, main streets, and other community destinations. In addition to providing space for pedestrians separated from motor vehicles, sidewalks also accommodate street trees and other plantings, stormwater infrastructure, street lights, and bicycle racks. This section defines sidewalk zones and provides considerations for better activating the streetscape to enhance peoples’ experiences.
Frontage Zone:
The Frontage Zone is the area of sidewalk that immediately abuts buildings along the street. In residential areas, the Frontage Zone may be occupied by front porches, stoops, lawns, or other landscape elements that extend from the front door to the sidewalk edge. The Frontage Zone of commercial properties may include architectural features, outdoor displays, café seating, awnings, signage, etc. Frontage Zones may vary in width from just a few feet to several yards.
Pedestrian Through Zone:
Also known as the “walking zone,” the Pedestrian Zone is the portion of the sidewalk space used for active travel. For it to function, it must be kept clear of any obstacles and be wide enough to comfortably accommodate expected pedestrian
volumes (as anticipated by density and adjacent land use) including those using mobility assistance devices, pushing strollers, or pulling carts.
Amenity Zone:
The Amenity Zone, or “landscape zone,” lies between the curb and the Pedestrian Zone. This area is occupied by fixtures such as street lights, trees, bicycle racks, utility poles, transit shelters, parking meters, signposts, signal boxes, benches, trash and recycling receptacles, and other amenities. In commercial areas, it is typical for this zone to be hardscape pavement, pavers, or tree grates. In residential, or lower intensity areas, it is commonly a planted strip.
ELEMENTS OF A SIDEWALK
Frontage, Pedestrian and Amenity Zones
+ Where demand is highest, it may be appropriate to reallocate street width to provide amenities that cannot be accommodated within the existing sidewalk width,
such as bicycle parking or outdoor dining. Outdoor dining opportunities contribute to a lively street environment and add economic value by enabling private commercial activity to spill into the public environment of the street.
+ While there are some exceptions, most street furniture installation is installed in the Amenity Zone. For example, bicycle parking may be installed in the frontage zone if it is ZONES
CONSIDERATIONS
sufficiently wide enough to accommodate it. Regardless, street furniture should not impede movement in the
Pedestrian Zone.
+ Seating is most commonly located in the Amenity Zone of the street, but may also be placed in the Frontage Zone.
Seating in the Amenity Zone should generally face away
from the street and toward the sidewalk or be aligned
perpendicular to the curb. Seating in the Frontage Zone should face the street.
+ Stormwater facilities are commonly located in the Amenity Zone.
+ Where demand is highest, it may be appropriate to reallocate street width to provide amenities that cannot be accommodated within the existing sidewalk width, such as bicycle parking or outdoor dining.

31NAPA COUNTYWIDE ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION PLAN - TREATMENT TOOLKIT
GUIDANCE CONSIDERATIONS
The width of the various sidewalk zones will vary given the street type, the available right-of-way, scale of the adjoining buildings and the intensity and type of uses expected along a particular street segment. A balanced approach for determining the sidewalk width should consider the character of the surrounding area and the anticipated pedestrian activities. For example, is the street lined with retail that encourages window shopping or does it connect a residential neighborhood to a commercial area where pedestrians frequently need to pass one another? Does the scale of the buildings and the character of the street indicate a need for a wider sidewalk? NACTO. Urban Street Design Guide. 2013.
U.S. Access Board. Final Rule on Public Right-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines, 2025.
PREFERRED WIDTHS FOR SIDEWALK ZONES
+ In locations with constrained rights-of-way, it is possible to provide a narrower Frontage Zone and Pedestrian Zone.
Sidewalk width is based on local context, therefore in
retrofit locations where development is not occurring and where existing building are anticipated to remain, 5-footwide sidewalks may be adequate. + Frontage Zones used for sidewalk cafés are a special
condition and should generally be no less than 6 feet in width.
+ The provision of tree wells or landscape strip within the Amenity Zone will be based on the existing or planned
character of the neighborhood.
+ Sidewalk stormwater facilities (including rain gardens) are generally located in the Amenity Zone and may indicate a need for a wider zone than what is identified in the table above.
REFERENCES
+ Sidewalk width must be a minimum of 4’ of clear space for path of travel (not including the curb which is typically 6”) and a passing space of minimum 5’x5’ is required every
200’ or more.
+ Pedestrian Through Zone width recommendations:
+ School Zones (8-12ft)
+ Downtown, Urban Centers, Main Streets (6-12ft)
+ Suburban Commercial (6-10ft)
+ Suburban Residential (6ft)
+ Rural (4-6ft), where applicable

GUIDANCE CONSIDERATIONS
Pedestrian safety and comfort is enhanced by smaller curb radii, which shorten crossing distances for pedestrians and reduce vehicle turning speeds. However, streets must accommodate large turning vehicles, including school buses and transit vehicles, which require larger turning radii. One of the most challenging aspects of intersection design is to determine methods of accommodating large vehicles while keeping intersections as compact as possible. This requires engineering judgment, as each intersection is unique in terms of the number of travel lanes, presence of a median, and a number of other features that fundamentally impact corner design.
NACTO. Urban Street Design Guide. 2013.
+ The design and control vehicle are context-dependent.
Common design vehicles include a DL-27 for local streets, SU-30 for downtown and commercial streets, and BU-40
for designated bus routes. Control vehicles are often larger trucks like a WB-50.
+ At signalized intersections, corner design should assume that a large vehicle will use the entire width of the receiving lanes on the intersecting street.
+ Depending on an agency’s encroachment policy, it may be possible to allow a large turning vehicle to encroach on the adjacent travel lane on the departure side (on multi-lane roads) to make the turn.
+ Mountable truck aprons can be implemented to deter
design vehicles from making higher-speed turns, while
accommodating control vehicles without encroachment or
off-tracking into pedestrian areas. Mountable truck aprons should be visually distinct from the adjacent travel lane and sidewalk. (For more information, refer to Truck Aprons section).

GUIDANCE CONSIDERATIONS
The transition for pedestrians from the sidewalk to the street is provided by a curb ramp. The designs of curb ramps are critical for all pedestrians, but particularly for people with disabilities. The ADA Standards require all pedestrian crossings be accessible to people with disabilities by providing curb ramps at intersections and midblock crossings as well as other locations where pedestrians can be expected to enter the street. Curb ramps also benefit people pushing strollers, grocery carts, suitcases, or bicycles.
U.S. Access Board. Final Rule on Public Right-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines, 2025.
+ Curb ramps must meet PROWAG requirements for
running slope, cross slope, grade breaks, clear area, side treatments, and detectable warning surfaces.
+ Furnishing zones (the space between the curb and
sidewalk) of 7’ in width provide just enough space at
intersections for curb ramps to gain sufficient elevation to a sidewalk.
+ Consider providing wider curb ramps in areas of high
pedestrian volumes and crossing activities.
+ The side of the curb ramp shall be flared when the surface adjacent to the ramp’s sides is walkable. However, when the surface adjacent to a ramp is landscaped or otherwise not walkable, the side is not required to be flared, and can be a vertical curb.
CURB RAMPS
+ Curb ramps are part of the accessible Pedestrian Access Route (PAR) and must be provided at all intersections
where pedestrians are permitted and expected to cross the street, i.e., all street corners in California.
+ Separate, perpendicular curb ramps should be provided for each crosswalk at an intersection (as shown in graphic above) rather than a single ramp at a corner for both
crosswalks. The separate curb ramps improve orientation for visually impaired pedestrians by directing them toward the correct crosswalk. Blended transitions may be provided instead of perpendicular curb ramps. Diagonal curb ramps are not recommended.

GUIDANCE CONSIDERATIONS
Legal crosswalks exist at all locations where sidewalks meet the roadway, regardless of whether pavement markings are present. Drivers are legally required to yield to pedestrians at intersections, even when there are no pavement markings. Providing marked crosswalks communicates to drivers that pedestrians may be present, and helps guide pedestrians to locations where they should cross the street. In addition to pavement markings, crosswalks may include signals/beacons, warning signs, and raised platforms.

U.S. Access Board. Final Rule on Public Right-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines, 2025. + Crosswalks should be marked on all legs of signalized intersections, in school zones, and across streets with more than minimal levels of traffic.
+ Marked crosswalks should be oriented perpendicular
to streets, minimizing crossing distances and therefore limiting the time that pedestrians are exposed.
+ Marked crosswalks should be at least 10 feet wide or
the width of the approaching sidewalk if it is greater.
Crosswalks within 600’ of school grounds must be painted yellow.
+ Stop lines at stop-controlled and signalized intersection approaches should be striped no less than 4 feet and no more than 30 feet from the edge of marked crosswalks.
+ Advance yield lines (“shark teeth”) at mid-block crossings should be located 20 to 50 feet from the edge of the
marked crosswalk.
+ There are many different styles of marked crosswalk
striping and some are more effective than others. Highvisibility crosswalks with striping parallel to the direction of travel for drivers are more visible to drivers, and are recommended in all cases, especially near schools. The
graphic above shows continential striping, but other types of high-visibility striping include ladder style, zebra, and triple four.
+ In areas of heavy pedestrian volumes (such as transit station areas, school zones, and main streets), marked
crosswalks can be up to 25 feet wide.

oncoming traffic before crossing.
+ Should a midblock crossing be provided along a
multilane arterial, a raised median or crossing island and supplementary traffic control devices are desirable.
+ On a local road with relatively low traffic speeds and volumes, placing a raised median or crossing island might be done for aesthetic considerations or special pedestrian crossing characteristics and volumes.
+ Crossing islands require minimum depth of 6’, with
preferred depth of 8-10’ in locations where significant pedestrian or bicycle volumes are present/expected, or to accommodate cargo bikes & wheelchairs more effectively. + May be implemented as a quick build treatment through use of temporary materials.
+ There are two primary types of crossing islands:
+ The first provides a cut-through of the island, keeping pedestrians at street-grade. These islands must be
at least 6’ in width in order to integrate detectable
warning surfaces and be considered a true pedestrian
refuge island.
+ The second type ramps pedestrians up above street
grade and may present challenges to constructing
accessible curb ramps unless they are more than 17’

Lane narrowing can improve comfort and safety for vulnerable road users. Narrowing lanes creates space that can be reallocated to other modes, in the form of wider sidewalks, bike lanes, reduced crossing distances, and buffers between cyclists, pedestrians and motor vehicles. Space can also be dedicated to plantings and amenity zones. + Motor vehicle travel lanes as narrow as 10’ are allowed in low and moderate-speed environments (45 mph or less)
according to the AASHTO Green Book. Caltrans allows lane widths of 10.5’ on Caltrans roadways, per DIB-94.
+ 10’ travel lanes are not recommended on 4-lane undivided arterial roadways, but may be considered where speeds are 30 mph or less and truck use is low.
+ 11’ travel lanes are considered minimum safe width for fixed route transit vehicles per NVTA.

NACTO. Urban Street Design Guide. 2013.
Quick-build projects allow for faster and lower-cost implementation using temporary materials. Many bicycle and pedestrian facilities can be implemented as quick-build projects, including separated bike lanes, curb extensions, mini-roundabouts, and crossing islands. This profile focuses on the quick-build implementation of separated bike lanes, using flex posts and paint to retrofit existing Class II buffered bike lanes. More permanent forms of separation, such as curb-protected bike lanes, cost more and are less flexible once implemented. A phased implementation approach, where quick-build “pilot” projects transition to permanent, protected bike lanes allow for public input and evaluation before investing in a permanent design. + Lower-cost retrofits or pilot projects allow for quick implementation, responsiveness to public perception
and ongoing evaluation. Separation types for short-term separated bike lane designs often include non-permanent separation, such as flexible delineator posts, planters or parking stops. Pilot projects allow the agency to:
+ Test the separated bike lane configuration for
bicyclists and traffic operations
+ Evaluate public reaction, design performance, and
safety effectiveness
+ Make changes if necessary
+ Transition to permanent design
CONSIDERATIONS + Permanent separation designs provide a high level of protection and often have greater potential for
placemaking, quality aesthetics, and integration with
features such as green stormwater infrastructure.
Agencies often implement permanent separation designs
by leveraging private development (potentially through
developer contribution), major capital construction, and including protected bike lanes in roadway reconstruction designs. Examples of permanent separation materials
include rigid bollards, raised medians and grade-protected bike lanes at an intermediate or sidewalk level.

CONSIDERATIONS
MAINTENANCE OF SIDEWALKS AND SHAREDUSE PATHS
+ Conduct routine inspections of high-volume sidewalks and apply temporary measures to maintain functionality and
repair heaving (such as patching, grinding, mudjacking). + Shared-use paths should meet a baseline pavement
condition index (PCI) of 70 or greater, with 80 or greater preferred. Pavement should also provide enough stability to prevent substantial wear and cracking with regular
maintenance vehicle traffic (typically, 6” thick concrete or asphalt).
+ Provide surface repairs such as crack repair, concrete stone replacement, and/or joint sealing as soon as the
issue is identified. These problems grow worse over time and can continue to provide opportunity for conflict or injury.
+ Regular sweeping and trash removal of shared-use paths and sidewalks enhance the user experience and minimize
opportunities for conflict or injury.

+ Ensure drainage swales and structures are kept free of silt and debris and are functioning appropriately.
+ For any construction project that may impact an existing sidewalk or shared-use path, an appropriate detour and
signage plan should be proposed by the contractor to
ensure continuous and safe service.
+ Check, repair, and maintain all lights and lighting systems, particularly underpass lighting.
+ Natural surface paths may need regrading, weeding, or the repair of ruts.

CONSIDERATIONS
MAINTENANCE OF ON-STREET FACILITIES
+ When roadway pavement condition is assessed, the entire roadway including bicycle facilities and shoulders must be included in the PCI score.
+ The general public, public works staff, and contractors should be trained to place garbage bins in the street buffer zone to avoid obstructing the bike lane. Sidewalk buffers may be used to store bins where street buffers are too
narrow.
+ For Class IV separated bikeways: Bike lane widths of 8 feet or more are compatible with smaller sweepers, but
responsible parties may have larger and incompatible
maintenance fleets. Narrower sweepers (approximately 4
feet to 5 feet minimum operating width) may be required to clear one-way separated bike lanes.
+ For Class IV street-level separated bike lanes without raised medians, debris can collect in the street buffer area between vertical objects and can migrate into the bike lane if not routinely collected.
+ Landscaped areas, including green stormwater
infrastructure, can also collect debris and require regular attention.
+ As noted in the previous section, seasonal maintenance activities such as frequent removal of leaves in the fall should be considered.
+ Maintenance of bike lanes and crosswalks is the
responsibility of the public or private agency that is
responsible for maintaining the roadway. This practice may contrast with responsibility for maintaining the adjacent sidewalk, which in some cases will be that of the abutting landowner.
+ Designated bike lanes, bicycle boulevards, and routes should be maintained through routine sweeping to remove debris and maintain usability. A regular sweeping schedule, such as monthly sweeping, is recommended, along with
proactive spot-checks conducted by the contractor or
responsible jurisdiction.
+ Pavement markings may require regular maintenance.
Deteriorated bike lane markings, buffers, crosswalks, or sharrows may reduce perceived safety on facility.

WAYFINDING
Wayfinding helps identify the best routes to destinations, helps bicyclists overcome a barrier of not knowing where to ride, and reminds motorists to anticipate the presence of bicyclists and pedestrians. Wayfinding systems often combine signage and pavement markings to guide bicyclists and pedestrians along preferred routes to destinations across the community, county, or region. Routes may or may not be numbered, named, or colorcoded. Signs may also indicate distances or travel time to destinations. + A bicycle wayfinding protocol should coordinate with
bicycle route maps and provide three general forms of
guidance:
+ Decision assemblies, which consist of Bike Route
identification and optional destination panels, placed
at decision points where routes intersect or on the
approaches to a designated bike route.
+ Turn assemblies, which consist of Bike Route panels
and arrow plaques, placed where a designated bike
route turns from one street to another.
+ Confirmation assemblies, which consist of Bike Route
optional destination panels, placed on the far side of
intersections to confirm route choice and the distance
(and optionally, time) to destinations.
+ Sign design can be customized to add distinct community branding, but the clarity and accuracy of the information must be the top priority.
+ Basic bicycle route signs consist of a MUTCD-style “Bike Route” sign (D11-1 shown above, right) placed every half mile on a bike route and on the approach to bike routes at decision points.
+ Bike route signs can be supplemented with panels showing destinations, directions, and distances (MUTCD D1 series, shown in photo above, left).
+ Unique numbered or named routes can be designated and can incorporate a route name or agency logos also shown in photo above, left.
+ Place directional signs on the near side of intersections and confirmation signs on the far side of intersections.

CONSIDERATIONS
FHWA. Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. 2023.
NACTO. Urban Street Design Guide. 2013.
U.S. Access Board. Final Rule on Public Right-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines, 2025.
Intersection geometry and traffic controls should encourage turning vehicles to yield the right-of-way to pedestrians. Traffic movements should be analyzed at intersections in order to utilize non-conflicting phases to implement one or more WALK intervals per cycle.
Signal design should also minimize the time that pedestrians must wait. Requiring pedestrians to wait for extended periods can encourage crossing against the signal. The 2010 Highway Capacity Manual states that pedestrians have an increased likelihood of risk-taking behavior (crossing against the signal) after waiting longer than 30 seconds.
Free-flowing right-turn lanes are discouraged at signalized intersections. Where they are present and unsignalized, the pedestrian signal and pushbutton should be located on the channelization (“pork chop”) island. A yield or crosswalk warning sign should then be placed in advance of the
crosswalk.
+ Pedestrian signals should allocate enough time for
pedestrians of all abilities to safely cross the roadway. The MUTCD specifies a pedestrian walking speed of 3.5 feet
per second to account for an aging population.
+ Countdown pedestrian displays inform pedestrians of
the amount of time in seconds that is available to safely cross during the flashing DON’T WALK (or upraised hand) interval. All pedestrian signal heads should contain a
countdown display provided with the DON’T WALK (or
upraised hand) indication.
+ In areas with higher pedestrian activity, such as near transit stations, Main Streets, and school zones, push button
actuators may not be appropriate. People should expect
to get a pedestrian cycle at every signal phase, rather than having to push a button to call for a pedestrian phase.

(LPI)
ACCESSIBLE PEDESTRIAN
SIGNALS (APS)
+ Accessible pedestrian signals and accessible detectors are devices that communicate information in non-visual
formats about the pedestrian phase to pedestrians with
visual and/or hearing disabilities. APS and detectors may include features such as audible tones, speech messages, detectable arrow indications and/or vibrating surfaces. + Pushbutton locator tones are used for locating the
pedestrian pushbutton needed to actuate the WALK
interval. Detectable arrows should be located on
pushbuttons to point in the same direction as the
crosswalk. At corners of signalized locations where two pushbuttons are present, they should be separated by at least 10’.
+ Audible walk indications should have the same duration as the pedestrian walk indication unless the pedestrian signal rests during the pedestrian phase, in which case the audible indication should be provided in the first seven seconds of the Walk interval.
+ For automatically-called pedestrian phases, pushbuttons can be used to activate accessible pedestrian signal
features such as detectable arrow indications and/or
speech messages.
+ When new pedestrian signals are installed, APS with
pushbuttons are required. For existing pedestrian signals, the APS and pedestrian pushbuttons should be provided
when the signal controller and software are altered, or the signal head is replaced.
+ The Leading Pedestrian Interval initiates the pedestrian WALK indication three to seven seconds before motor
vehicles traveling in the same direction are given the green indication. This signal timing technique allows pedestrians to enter the intersection prior to turning vehicles, increasing visibility between all modes.
+ The LPI should be used at intersections with high volumes of pedestrians and conflicting turning vehicles and at
locations with a large population of elderly or school
children who tend to walk slower.
+ A lagging protected left arrow for vehicles should be provided to accommodate the LPI.

NACTO. Urban Bikeway Design Guide. 2014.
Bicyclists have unique needs at signalized intersections. Bicycle movements may be controlled by the same indications that control motor vehicle movements, by pedestrian signals, or by bicycle-specific traffic signals.
The introduction of separated bike lanes creates situations that may require a leading bicycle interval or protected phases for bicycle traffic, or place bicyclists outside the cone of vision of existing signal equipment. In these situations, provision of signals for bicycle traffic will be required. + Bicycle-specific signals may be appropriate to provide additional guidance or separate phasing for bicyclists per the 2024 AASHTO Guide for the Development of Bicycle
Facilities.
+ It may be desirable to install advanced bicycle detection on the intersection approach to extend the phase, or to prompt the phase and allow for continuous bicycle through movements.
+ Video detection, microwave and infrared detection can be an alternate to loop detectors.
+ Another strategy in signal timing is coordinating signals to provide a “green wave” timed to align with the travel speed of bicyclists (often 15 mph) such that bicycles will receive a green indication and not be required to stop. Several cities including Portland, OR and San Francisco, CA have implemented “green waves” for bicycles.
+ A stationary, or “standing”, cyclist entering the intersection at the beginning of the green indication can typically be accommodated by increasing the minimum green time
on an approach per the 2024 AASHTO Guide for the
Development of Bicycle Facilities.
+ A moving, or “rolling”, bicyclist approaching the
intersection towards the end of the phase can typically be accommodated by increases to the red times (change and
clearance intervals) per the 2024 AASHTO Guide for the
Development of Bicycle Facilities.
+ Set loop detectors to the highest sensitivity level possible without detecting vehicles in adjacent lanes and field
check.
+ All signalized intersections should aim to integrate passive detection of bicycles, such as inductive loops designed for bicycle detection or similar technologies, to reduce reliance on manual actuation.

SHORT-TERM BICYCLE PARKING
Bicycle parking enhances the effectiveness of bicycle networks by providing locations for the secure storage of bicycles during a trip. Sometimes called visitor parking, short-term parking is intended for shorter stays at locations such as shops, recreational facilities, businesses and other institutions. Bicycle parking requires far less space than automobile parking; in fact, 10 bicycles can typically park in the area needed for a single car. + Racks should be located in a well lit, high visibility location to reduce potential for theft or vandalism.
+ Bicycle parking should be provided at all publicly accessible buildings, parks, and other destinations, and included
in roadway, streetscape, and transit projects, as well as wherever car parking is required.
+ Multiple types of racks exist, but all should adhere to guidance pictured above regarding providing two points of contact for bike frame to prevent bikes from falling.

DRIVEWAYS
Most bicycle and pedestrian facilities will need to cross streets, driveways, or alleys at multiple locations along a corridor. At these locations, the crossings should be designed to 1) delineate a preferred path for people bicycling through the intersection and 2) to encourage driver yielding behavior, where applicable. Bicycle crossings may be supplemented with green pavement, yield lines, and/or regulatory signs. + Advance stop bars may be used in advance of driveway
crossings to alert motorists to bicyclists and pedestrians crossing.
+ Supplemental yield lines (“shark’s teeth”) may be used in advance of unsignalized crossings at driveways, at
signalized intersections where motorists may turn across a bicycle crossing during a concurrent phase, and in advance of bicycle crossings located within roundabouts.
+ Raised bicycle crossings further promote driver yielding behavior by slowing their speed before the crossing and increasing visibility of people bicycling.
+ Dashed green-colored pavement may be used in a bicycle crossing to increase the visibility of the crossing where permitted conflicts occur. Green color may be desirable at crossings where concurrent vehicle crossing movements
are allowed and where sightlines are constrained, or where motor vehicle turning speeds exceed 10 mph.
+ Whenever a bicycle lane intersects with a high traffic driveway special treatment should be taken to reduce
conflict.
+ Consider installing signage for drivers entering roadway, particularly relevant for commercial driveways (eg: fast food restaurants) where drivers’ attention may challenged. + The bicycle crossing should be a minimum of 6 feet wide for one-way travel and 10 feet wide for two-way travel, as measured from the outer edge of the elephant’s feet.
Bicycle lane symbol markings should be avoided in bicycle crossings. Directional arrows are preferred within twoway bicycle crossings. Two-way crossings should also be indicated with warning signage for drivers entering and exiting the driveway.
+ Though the graphic above shows a Class IV Separated Bike Lane, bicycle driveway crossings are also applicable to Class II bicycle facilities.
+ Regardless of whether a driveway crossing is commercial or private, property owners must maintain a “visibility triangle” that ensures adequate sightlines as a motorist exits a driveway. Requirements vary based on jurisdiction. + Refer to the AASHTO Green Book and AASHTO BIke Guide

+ All transit stops must be ADA compliant, and should be safe, convenient, well-illuminated, and clearly visible.
Transit stops should be connected to the larger pedestrian network with continuous sidewalks, curb ramps, and safe pedestrian crossings. Mid-block stops should provide
access to mid-block crosswalks.
+ Transit stops on urban streets are typically located at the natural curb line or on a bus bulb or transit island.
+ Bus bulbs may be considered where additional pedestrian space is needed or to provide an in-lane spot where it is challenging for transit vehicles to reenter traffic. Transit islands are recommended on streets with separated
bicycle facilities.
+ Transit stops may be located on the near-side of an
intersection before a signal or cross street, on the far-side after a bus has passed through an intersection, or at a midblock location between intersections. + Generally, transit agencies prefer far-side stops since they provide better visibility between transit riders and motor vehicles. Near-side bus stops may be appropriate
where traffic flow is lower or where transit riders can more easily transfer without crossing the street. Stops can also be placed mid-block where there are major passenger
generators or where space next to an intersection is
insufficient.
+ Transit stop locations are determined based on a number of factors including intersection operations, bus routing, curbside conditions, transfer points, intersection geometry and sightlines, consideration of other street users, and major generators or destinations.

DRAINAGE AND STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
Providing proper drainage enhances the safety and comfort of all users by reducing water ponding on the street and bike lane surfaces as well as the accumulation of debris. Proper drainage also protects the longevity of the roadway infrastructure and ensures that drainage features are adequate to accommodate state and local requirements to manage stormwater and minimize erosion. + A hard surface cross slope of 1 percent typically provides adequate conveyance of drainage while meeting
accessibility requirements.
+ Rectangular grates should be considered in place of square designs where the grate design can result in bicycle wheels being caught if installed in the wrong direction. Where grates are located within a bicycle facility or adjacent to bicyclists’ operating space, the gap between the drainage grate and its frame should be 0.5 in. or less. Another
bicycle friendly option is to place the grate entirely within a gutter rather than extending it into the bicycle facility. + Grates and other utility covers should remain flush with the pavement surface after a pavement overlay to within 0.25” of the new surface. If this is not possible or practicable, the pavement edge should slope to the drainage grate so it does not have an abrupt edge at the inlet.
+ Pedestrian accessibility guidelines limit openings on ground surfaces, such as grates, to a width of 0.5”. or less to prevent wheelchair castors from becoming wedged
into the opening. Pedestrian accessibility guidelines also limit vertical deviations in surfaces of more than 0.25”.
To minimize risks to pedestrians, drainage grates, utility covers, and gutters should not be located within bicycle facilities where pedestrians are traveling unless they meet pedestrian accessibility guidelines.
REFERENCES
CONSIDERATIONS
+ In urban areas, stormwater may need to be directed
toward the sidewalk buffer. In suburban and rural areas, the preferred practice is to direct runoff onto adjacent vegetated areas, where soils and slopes allow for runoff to naturally infiltrate. For uncurbed roadways, the preference is to locate drainage swales between the roadway and
separated bike lane or side path, which may require street buffer widths wider than the minimum recommended
widths to provide sufficient capacity in the swale.
+ For locations where curbs do not include a gutter, curb inlets located within or adjacent to the bike lane zone should be designed to minimize steep elevation changes
or slopes that could cause a bicyclist to crash. If a steep elevation change is provided, it should be designed as a gutter, the steep slope width may not be counted as part of the bike lane, and the area may be demarked with a surface material change and/or a white edge line to guide bicyclists away from the hazard.
+ Drainage grates should be located outside of the bike lane whenever feasible to maintain a comfortable riding surface. When their placement in the bike lane cannot be avoided, drainage grates must be bicycle-compatible, with openings small enough to prevent a bicycle wheel from
falling into the slots of the grate or with bar designs which are perpendicular to the path of travel.
360
60NAPA COUNTYWIDE ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION PLAN - TREATMENT TOOLKIT + Any infrastructure located in low-lying areas may need special attention due to larger scale drainage and flooding issues. Designers may need to capture excess stormwater to prevent standing water or erosion on a bicycle facility. + When stormwater management features such as
filtration/infiltration measures or permeable pavements are considered in conjunction with a bike facility project, designers should give special consideration to the location of existing utilities and placement of relocated utilities.
Utilities are generally incompatible with stormwater
infiltration measures and should be relocated outside of the zone of influence of those facilities.
+ The addition of separated bike lanes to a roadway presents an opportunity to introduce green infrastructure strategies, including continuous treatments (e.g., permeable
hardscape surfaces, linear bioretention areas, and linear water quality swales) as well as those that may only be implemented at spot locations (e.g., bioretention areas, bioretention curb extension areas, and tree boxes).

runoff from bike lanes and adjacent roadways into green infrastructure systems like bioswales or rain gardens,
where the water can be filtered and absorbed. These
extensions also provide space for permeable surfaces,
such as permeable pavement or plantings. Additionally,
bulb-outs can improve safety by slowing vehicle speeds
and increasing visibility for cyclists and pedestrians.

CHICANES AND CHOKERS
GUIDANCE CONSIDERATIONS
Chicanes slow traffic by creating a serpentine travel path by alternating street features from one side of the street to the other. Chokers narrow the road in midblock locations through the application of curb extensions (or on-street parallel parking) on both sides of the street. Chicanes and chokers both can be designed to integrate stormwater drainage catchments, street tree planting, benches, bicycle parking, and other amenities.
Caltrans. California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. 2014.
NACTO. Urban Street Design Guide. 2013.
+ Use for stormwater infiltration with bioretention areas or appropriately sized tree filter boxes.
+ Consult with fire department to ensure that designs
minimize impacts to emergency services.
+ If needed to maintain existing drainage patterns, consider constructing with a 2’ drainage channel between the
chicane island and curb.
+ Use chicanes on low-volume, local streets. Use chokers on arterials, collector, and local streets. Engineering judgment should be used to determine when the need is met for each treatment.
+ Chicanes must meet requirements for horizontal tapers per the California MUTCD.
+ Avoid use of chicanes on streets with higher volumes of bus, freight, or emergency service activity. Use mountable curbs to accommodate larger motor vehicles while
maintaining tight turn radii to slow people driving.
+ Use vertical elements like plantings in combination with chicanes to warn drivers of traffic pattern.

SPEED CUSHIONS
CONSIDERATIONS
Vertical deflection treatments like speed cushions are some of the most effective treatments for slowing motor vehicle speeds. These treatments can reduce higher-speed motor vehicle cut-through traffic on local streets.
Speed cushions are similar to speed humps, but include gaps to allow vehicles with wider wheelbases, such as fire apparatus, to pass through unimpeded. Speed cushions also provide bicyclists an opportunity to subvert verticle deflection.
AASHTO. Guide for the Development of Bicycle Facilities. 2024.
FHWA. Traffic Calming E-Primer. (N.D.)
NACTO. Urban Street Design Guide. 2013.
+ To minimize emergency response delay even further,
consider offset speed tables instead, which are speed
tables split in half down the street centerline with
longitudinal separation between the halves.
+ Speed cushions may be constructed out of asphalt or
rubber vertical deflections.
+ Design should consider the ability to withstand the weight of fire apparatus and outriggers.
+ Use on local and shared streets at midblock locations where lower motor vehicle speeds and volumes are
desired, such as on bike boulevards.
+ Locate speed cushions periodically along the corridor every 250 to 500 feet to accomplish speed control. Do not locate in front of driveways, close to intersections, or on a sharp curve.

SPEED REDUCTION MARKINGS
GUIDANCE CONSIDERATIONS
Speed Reduction Markings (also known as Optical Speed Bars) are transverse pavement markings placed with progressively reduced spacing on both edges of the traveled way to create the perception of increased speed. This illusion encourages drivers to slow down as they pass by the markings.
Caltrans. California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. 2014.
Caltrans. Traffic Calming Guide. 2023.
ITE. Traffic Calming Fact Sheets. (N.D.)
+ Speed reduction markings may be particularly useful on rural roads, such as identified Rural Class III facilities, which have higher volumes of bicyclists. See Chapter 1 for more information on Rural Class III facilities and Class III unclassified bike routes.
+ Durable marking materials, such as thermoplastic, should be used as markings are exposed to increased wear from
tires.
+ Do not install on lanes that do not have a longitudinal line (center line, edge line, or lane line) on both sides of the lane.
+ Use on collector or local roads with any volume, ideally placed upstream of horizontal cuves or other locations
where roadway design or street context change
unexpectedly.

HARDENED CENTERLINES
GUIDANCE CONSIDERATIONS
Hardened centerlines feature vertical elements such as mountable curb or flex posts that force turning drivers to slow down and keep them from crossing the centerline when making turning movements. They have been shown to reduce motorist-pedestrian conflicts and reduce the speed of left-turning vehicles.
AASHTO. Guide for the Development of Bicycle Facilities. 2024. + On roadways where trucks and emergency vehicles
frequently make turning movements, consider using
mountable curbs to allow larger motor vehicles to make
turns while slowing smaller motor vehicles.
+ Intersection design including hardened centerlines must consider vehicular turning paths to prevent head-on
collisions between opposing left-turning motorists.
+ Can be used in conjunction with turn wedges and at
protected intersections
Use at:
+ Intersections with a history of collisions involving
people walking or rolling and left-turning motor
vehicles; or
+ Intersections with high volumes of people walking,
rolling, and biking across the street; or
+ Intersections where motor vehicles are frequently
turning across double yellow lines at high speeds.
+ Designs can include any combination of plastic curbing, rubber speed bumps, and flex posts, depending on turning radii, lane width, and needs to accommodate large motor vehicle turning movements.
+ Where space allows, install rubber speed bump “nose”
extending into the intersection.

TRANSVERSE RUMBLE STRIPS
GUIDANCE CONSIDERATIONS
Transverse rumple strips are raised areas across the surface of an approach lane to produce an audible and tactile warning of the impending intersection.
Caltrans. Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. 2014.
ITE. Traffic Calming Fact Sheets. (N.D.)
REFERENCES
+ Use in combination with Intersection Warning (W2-1
through W2-8), Advance Traffic Control (W3-1 or W3-2), or Pedestrian Crossing (W11-2) signs.
+ Noise generated from vehicles traversing the rumble strips can be an issue when residences are in close proximity to the intersection.
+ Can require significant maintenance activities, especially on approaches characterized by high volumes of truck
traffic.

67NAPA COUNTYWIDE ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION PLAN - TREATMENT TOOLKIT
TRAFFIC CIRCLES
GUIDANCE CONSIDERATIONS
Traffic circles are circular raised center islands at the intersection of two neighborhood streets installed to slow vehicle approach speeds. Unlike a mini-roundabout, a residential traffic circle is typically characterized by (1) a non-traversable center island, (2) no splitter islands on the intersection approaches, and (3) either yield control or no control.
AASHTO. Guide for the Development of Bicycle Facilities. 2024.
FHWA. Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. 2023.
ITE. Traffic Calming Fact Sheets. (N.D.)
+ Neighborhood traffic circles are most effective when paired with other traffic calming treatments.
+ Where large vehicles are infrequent, design to allow larger trucks to turn left in front of the circle.Where trucks are frequent, include mountable truck aprons around the
outside of the circle to allow large motor vehicles to use the intersection without encouraging high speeds by
smaller motor vehicles.
+ If the circle geometry precludes turning movements for larger vehicles, consider turning restrictions if the adjacent street network is adequate.
+ Traffic circles also provide opportunities for plantings, special identifying signage for neighborhoods, or public art. Consider planting native and/or seasonal vegetation in the center of the circles to provide neighborhood
beautification, traffic calming elements, and stormwater infiltration.
+ Traffic circles can be constructed as a quick-build project using temporary materials. See the Quick-Build section of Chapter 4 for more details.
+ Use at intersections in primarily residential areas where daily motor vehicle volumes for all approaching legs of the intersection is less than 15,000 ADT. In particular, these may be used at intersections along bike boulevards.
+ Design the circles to be visible at night with reflective materials and/or ensure adequate street lighting exists. + Provide adequate signage (see FHWA MUTCD for details). REFERENCES 368

Induced Bicycling Demand and Subsequent Benefits
The following analysis utilizes the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 552 Guidelines for Analysis of Investment in Bicycle Facilities1 to calculate potential induced bicycling demand among existing and new bicyclists generated by the proposed bicycle facilities. The methodology describes an approach for estimating the induced demand associated with a given bicycle facility improvement and translates the projected increase in demand to monetized benefits related to mobility, health, recreation, and decreased auto use. This section describes the application of the NCHRP 552 methodology for this project, and the anticipated benefits in terms of induced bicycling demand and monetized benefits associated with proposed bicycle facilities.
The induced bicycling demand benefits analyzed herein are calculated for each project separately and should be used for project-to project comparison only. Some benefits categories analyze the estimated benefits separately for “separated” versus “on-street” facilities2
.
Methodology
To estimate the induced demand benefits associated with bicycle improvements proposed in the Plan, the project team utilized the sketch planned method described in Appendix A and B of NCHRP Report 552, as well as Census population and commute pattern data, and average bicycling trip length estimates from 2023 Replica data3 . The
NCHRP 552 methodology is centered on several assumptions.
1. Existing bicyclists near a new facility will shift from the existing nearby facility to the new facility.
2. The new facility will result in induced number of bicyclists as a function of the number of existing bicyclists, relative to the attractiveness of the proposed facility (i.e., Class I shared-use path vs. Class II bicycle lanes).
3. People are more likely to ride a bicycle if they live within 1.5 miles of a facility than if they live outside that distance.
The methodology suggests that existing bicycle commute mode share can be utilized to estimate the number of existing and future bicycle ridership based on low, moderate, and high likelihood multipliers and the population within 1.5-mile, 1-mile, and 0.5-mile buffers that surround a facility. According to the NCHRP 522 research, the total rate of adult bicycling ranges from a low estimate, based on the Census bicycling commute mode share, to a 1 Methodology utilized here in based on National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 552, Guidelines for Analysis of Investments in Bicycle Facilities, Transportation Research Board of the National Academies (2006), as well as the supplemental White Paper titled “Translating Demand and Benefits Research into Guidelines,” available here, which was adapted from the demands and benefits outlined in the original NCHRP 552 report. The methodology described in the White Paper was used in the development of an online tool (no longer supported) created by the NCHRP 552 research authors. 2 The NCHRP 552 methodology does not include Class III bike routes, so those facility types were not included in the induced demand benefits assessment. While the methodology did not originally include Class IV bikeways or Class II buffered bike lanes, as those facility types had not yet been consistently implemented at the time of report publication, Class IV facilities were analyzed using the same calculations as separated paths and Class II buffered facilities were analyzed the same as onstreet bike lanes. 3 Replica is an online platform providing data on the built environment and how people interact with it, most notably trip patterns. Replica models their data, representing movement by aggregating data from three primary sources: census demographic data, proprietary location data from telecommunications and other digital infrastructure within a region, and field observations. Replica’s simulated datasets are cleaned of identifying information and calibrated against observed “ground-truth.” The data is tested with field observations to ensure it is consistent with actual human behavior. 392

high estimate, based on 0.6 percent plus three times the Census commute share. Moreover, the highest likelihood of a member of the population to use the facility exists if they live within a 0.5-mile buffer around the facility.
Thus, demand is reported at low, medium, and high estimates for the populations at each buffer distance. Each buffer area—at 0.5-, 1- and 1.5-mile distances from a proposed bicycle improvement are created using a networkbased analysis in a GIS environment.
Existing Population Estimates
To project future bicycling demand, the existing population, and more specifically existing bicycling population near the proposed improvements, a key input to the NCHRP 552 methodology, must first be estimated. Existing population by block group for Napa County was estimated using 2023 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-Year estimates. Using a GIS-based python script, the network analysis buffers at 0.5-mile, 1-mile and 1.5-mile distances from each proposed bicycle facility are intersected with the block groups to establish the proportion of the entire block group within a given buffer distance area. The total population within each buffer distance near the proposed improvements was estimated by multiplying the proportion of area of each buffer to the area of the whole block by the estimated block population.
Existing Bicycle Demand Estimates
Daily existing bicycling population is estimated for several categories: adult commuter bicyclists, adultnoncommuter bicyclists and child bicyclists. The calculations used to estimate existing and new bicyclists within each category are described in the following sections. The estimates of existing population and bicyclists by category for each of the bicycle facilities considered is provided at the end of this document.
Existing Bicycle Commuters
The estimated number of daily existing bicycle commuters are based on the existing bicycle commute mode share, the percent of adult population, and the percent of adult commuters for each block group, which is estimated based on U.S. Census data4
. To identify the existing bicyclist commuter population who could shift to the new facility, the equation below is used, where (R) is the total population within each buffer distance, (A) is the percentage of adult population, (C) is the Census bicycle commute mode share, and it is assumed that 50% of adults are commuters.
Daily existing bicycle commuters = R * A * C *0.5
Existing Adult Bicyclists
Adult bicycling rates are calculated at high, moderate, and low estimates. The NCHRP 552 research found that total adult bicycling rates range from the Census commute mode share at the low end to 0.6 percent plus three times the Census commute mode share at the high end5
.
Thigh = 0.06% + 3C
Tmoderate = 0.4% + 1.2C
Tlow = C

F-3
To estimate existing adult bicyclists the equation below is used, where (R) is the total population within each buffer distance, (A) is the percentage of adult population, and (T) is the adult bicycling rate at high, moderate, and low estimates.
Total existing adult bicyclists = R * A * Ti
Existing Child Bicyclists
To estimate existing child bicyclists, the below equation is used. The population within each buffer area (R) is multiplied by the percent of population who are children (PC), then by 0.02 based on the 2017 National Household Transportation Survey (NHTS) estimate of children who ride a bicycle on a given day.
Daily existing child bicyclists = R * PC * 0.02
Future Estimates – Induced Bicyclists Demand
The NCHRP 552 research cites that people who live closest to a bicycle facility are more likely to bike than those who live further from the facility. Likelihood multipliers were developed to represent this probability6 .Using the
estimated bicycling rates for each group (bicycle commuters, total adults, and children) along with the likelihood multipliers cited by the NCHRP 552 research (L), the estimates of induced bicyclists anticipated to be associated with a given facility is calculated for each group, as shown in the equations below.
New bicyclist commuters = existing bicyclist commuters * L New adult bicyclists = existing adult bicyclists * L
New child bicyclists = existing child bicyclists * L
Where:
L800m = 0.51
L1600m = 0.44
L2400m = 0.15
Estimates of induced bicycling demand for each of the bicyclist groups is provided for the full list of evaluated bicycle projects at the end of this document.
Monetized Bicycle Mode Shift Benefits
The NCHRP 552 methodology presents guidance on translating their demand and benefits research to a benefit cost analysis approach for bicycle facility investments. This methodology results in total annual monetized benefits associated with mobility, health, recreation, and decreased auto use expected to result from new bicycle facilities.
Each of the benefit types associated with the induced bicycling demand that is anticipated for the bicycle facilities proposed in the Plan are described in the following sections. The following benefits are summed up to provide a total monetary benefit for each bicycle project, provided in Appendix E.
Mobility Benefits
6 NCHRP 552, Appendix B; Supplemental White Paper Translating Demand and Benefits Research into Guidelines 394
F-4
Mobility benefits represent the time cost associated with shift to given bicycle facility type for the total number of commute trips over a commute year for new and existing bicyclist commuters7 . This approach is based on stated
preference analysis findings that establish the number of minutes, on average, bicycle commuters are willing to spend to access various facility types, as well as an hourly value of time assumption. The resulting calculation represents a per-trip benefit by facility type. The annualized mobility benefits consider the estimated existing and induced demand to reflect the time in dollars that a new or existing bicyclist commuter is willing to spend to access the new facility.
Health Benefits
Health benefits represent the cost savings from physical activity benefits associated with induced demand anticipated to result from the proposed bicycle facilities. An annual per capita cost savings of $128, representing health benefit cost savings8
. The annual health benefit is calculated by multiplying the annual per capita cost savings by the total number of new bicyclists anticipated with the proposed bicycle facilities. See Table 2 for the estimated health benefits associated with the proposed bicycle projects.
Recreation Benefits
Recreation benefits represent the cost savings related to recreational activity for new bicyclists induced by the new bicycle facilities. The cost of a typical day of recreation, valued at $10 for 1 hour of recreation activity, is based on a variety of outdoor recreational activities. The average adult cycling day, for example, includes roughly 40 minutes of cycling, in addition to some preparation and clean up time. To calculate annualized health benefits, the number of new commuters is subtracted from the number of new bicyclists, then multiplied by the typical recreation day cost. The number of new commuters is subtracted from the number of new bicyclists, because the value of the facility to new commuters is already accounted for in the mobility benefit.
Decrease Auto Use Benefits
Decreased auto use benefits include the benefits associated with user cost savings, reduced congestion, and reduced air pollution. This benefit is calculated based on the benefit per mile associated with vehicle to bicycle mode shift as a function of location and time of day, with congestion savings ranging from 0 to 5 cents per mile and pollution savings ranging from 1 to 5 cents per mile depending on conditions. The middle range of congestion and pollution savings is used for suburban areas, which is the value used for the analysis in this study. The overall savings per mile is estimated at 8 cents per mile for suburban geographies.
To calculate the annual decreased auto use benefit, the number of new commuters is multiplied by the average round trip length, savings per mile, 48 weeks per year, 5 days per week, and 2 trips per day. In addition to the monetized benefits associated with decreased auto use, these benefits can also be described in terms of VMT reduction. The estimated VMT reduction can be utilized as an input to calculate air quality benefits using other methods, as well as provides another metric to use as a lens to view decreased auto use benefits associated with bicycle mode shift.
Emissions Reduction
The NCHRP guidelines do not discuss how to calculate monetized greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reductions benefits associated with a reduction in VMT. Instead, the Senate Bill (SB) 1 California Life-Cycle Benefit/Cost 7 NCHRP Report 552, Chapter 4; NCHRP Report 552 Appendix D. 8 NCHRP Report 552, Chapter 4; Appendix E, reflects the median value of 10 studies on health-related annual per capita cost savings for physical activity associated with induced bicycle use 395
F-5
Analysis Model (Cal-B/C) Grant Program Emissions Reduction Calculator is used. The model estimates emissions from changes in vehicle miles. The calculator requires the project location, length of construction period, average Daily VMT, percent of VMT that is truck and bus travel, and average trip length to calculate the value of tons of emissions saved per year. Benefits associated with emissions reductions are not included in the total monetized benefits for each project.
396
F-6
Pedestrian Network Improvement Emissions Reduction
The NCHRP Guidelines for Analysis of Investment in Bicycle Facilities do not extend to pedestrian improvements.
The guidelines state that the relationship between bicycle facility improvements and induced riders/commuters should not be assumed to hold true for walking. The analysis the following analysis utilizes the California Emission Estimator Model (CalEEMod) Handbook for Analyzing Greenhouse Gas Emission Reductions Assessing Climate Vulnerabilities and Advancing Health and Equity. The Pedestrian Network Improvement methodology describes an approach for estimating the percent reduction in emissions from induced pedestrian trips based on the percent increase in sidewalk coverage.
Methodology
To estimate the GHG emissions reduction benefits associated with the pedestrian improvements proposed in the Plan, the projects team used the method described in CalEEMod Handbook: Pedestrian Network Improvements, sidewalk mileage collected during the analysis of existing pedestrian facilities, and the proposed pedestrian network. The CalEEMod methodology is centered on the assumption that:
Elasticity of household VMT with respect to the ratio of sidewalks-to-streets remains constant. A study found that a 0.05 percent decrease in household vehicle travel occurs for every 1 percent increase in the sidewalk-to-street ratio (Frank et el. 2011; Handy et al. 2014).
The estimated percentage of GHG emissions reductions is based on dividing the total sidewalk coverage (existing and proposed) in miles by the existing coverage, subtracting one, and multiplying by an elasticity factor. The percent reduction in GHG emissions from household vehicle travel in the study area (A) is calculated using the formula below, where C is the total sidewalk length in miles in the study area (existing and proposed), B is the total existing sidewalk mileage in the study area, and D is the Elasticity of household VMT with respect to the ratio of sidewalks-to-streets (-0.05).
A = (C/B -1) * D
The methodology suggests the study area be within 0.6 miles of the proposed pedestrian improvement, which represents a 6- to 10-minute walking time. Due to the number of pedestrian facilities proposed throughout the county, Census Block Groups were used to define each study area.
Results
Of the 101 block groups, 68 are expected to reduce GHG emissions, ranging from 0.01 – 3.11% reductions.
Twenty-nine block groups did not have any proposed sidewalk improvements. Four block groups had no recorded existing sidewalks but had proposed improvements; in these cases, the calculation could not be performed. It should be noted that although sidewalks did not exist previously, it cannot be assumed that pedestrians did not use the unpaved areas. Therefore, the proposed sidewalks may have some GHG emission reductions.
The top 20 block groups that are expected to result in the most GHG emission reductions from sidewalk improvements are listed in Table F.1. Block Groups that are not wholly in one jurisdiction are shown with the second jurisdiction listed.

BUSINESS
ITEM NUMBER: 2.
TITLE
Work Plan Fiscal Year 2026/27
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Minute Order approving the Open Space, Ac/ve Transporta/on, and Sustainability Commission Work Plan for Fiscal Year 2026/27.
CONTACT
Jason B. Holley, City Manager
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
The City Council formed the Open Space, Ac/ve Transporta/on, and Sustainability (OSATS) Commission in 2022 (Attachments 2 & 3).
Per these guidelines, the Commission serves in an advisory capacity to the City Council and staff.
Each fiscal year, the Commission develops a Work Plan for the upcoming fiscal year. The Work Plan will list issues and projects to be addressed by the Commission and should be consistent with the Council's adopted goals and priori/es pertaining to open space, ac/ve transporta/on, and sustainability. On May 6, 2026, the Commission, along with staff support, developed the dra? Work Plan for Fiscal Year 2026/27 (Attachment 1).
For issues and projects that come up during the year that are out of the realm of the approved Work Plan and would require significant staff /me or City funds, the Commission should determine if it is feasible to wait un/l the next year to address the issue or project. If the Commission determines that the issue or project should be addressed in the current year, a recommenda/on for modifica/on of the Work Plan will need to be submiBed to the Council for considera/on. This recommenda/on for modifica/on of the Work Plan will need to indicate which issues or projects will be postponed or eliminated to accommodate and add the new issue or project to the Work Plan.
Accomplishments From FY2025/26
The Commission con/nued its work on the Parks and Recrea/on Master Plan update, which is scheduled for City Council adop/on on June 16, 2026. The Commission also established courtesy 399
trail signage to promote safe and shared use of trails throughout our park system. Staff is currently developing the signage and preparing an outreach plan for implementation.
The Commission received a presenta/on from Public Works staff on the concept of Complete Streets and its applica/on to the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) street projects. Addi/onally, the Napa Valley Transporta/on Authority (NVTA) gave a presenta/on on the combined Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan. This item is scheduled to return to the City Council on June 16, 2026 for adop/on and approval of a General Plan Amendment incorpora/ng the American Canyon Ac/ve Transporta/on Plan as an appendix to the Mobility Element. The City was also awarded the Bronzelevel Bicycle Friendly Community Designation through 2029.
The following projects are in progress or have been completed: The Outdoor Educa/on Project at Wetlands Edge Park was completed and included construc/on of an outdoor classroom, restroom facility, interpre/ve garden, and addi/onal walking trails. A Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB) crossing and traffic calming improvements on Melvin Road were completed. Addi/onal completed projects include shade improvements at Northampton Park, and the recycled water line connec/on at the American Canyon LiBle League Complex. The new restroom facili/es at Northampton Park and Silver Oak Park remain under construc/on. The Recycled Water Refill Sta/on Project is currently in development, with planning and coordina/on efforts ac/vely underway.
Lastly, construc/on con/nues for the Green Island Road Reconstruc/on and Widening Project, including the installation of a Class I trail.
The Commission received presenta/ons on the BCDC's Sea Level Rise Report related to SB 272 and the Regional Climate Ac/on and Adapta/on Plan (RCAAP). The Commission also reviewed the mapping of sustainability-related ini/a/ves iden/fied in the City's General Plan. In addi/on, the Commission promoted community engagement by highligh/ng Napa Climate Now through the City's website, social media plaHorms, and the City Manager's Update newsleBer. These outreach efforts helped residents beBer understand their climate footprint and opportuni/es to support local sustainability goals.
Work Plan initiatives on hold:
Engage with American Canyon youth - this ini/a/ve was not completed during the current work plan cycle and will be carried forward into the next fiscal year's work plan to allow for more focused outreach and collaboration opportunities with local youth.
Increase tree plantings and prepare a "Road Map to 2030" - development of a residen/al tree plan/ng program and the "Road Map to 2030" ini/a/ve were deferred to next fiscal year's work plan pending the onboarding of the City's new Sustainability Analyst.
Looking Ahead
The OSATS Commission, alongside the Parks and Community Services Commission, will work collabora/vely to evaluate the need for an e-bike ordinance and assess poten/al policy considera/ons related to safety and enforcement. The Commissions will also explore trail and park 400
wayfinding opportuni/es that improve connec/vity and support ac/ve transporta/on throughout American Canyon.
The Commission will con/nue advancing sustainability ini/a/ves focused on climate ac/on, community engagement, and environmental stewardship. Planned efforts include evalua/ng a reusable foodware ordinance recommended by Napa County. The Commission will also develop a residen/al tree plan/ng program, similar to the City's Cash for Grass program, to encourage increased tree canopy throughout the community. The Commission will prepare a "Road Map to 2030" to engage American Canyon businesses and residents in achieving the City's sustainability goals and will engage with local youth on sustainability and climate ac/on ini/a/ves through the City's High School Ci/zens Academy program. Addi/onal educa/onal opportuni/es include presenta/ons on Marin Clean Energy's Deep Green program and par/cipa/on trends, Tree City USA designa/on requirements and benefits, and home energy savings. Community outreach efforts will focus on increasing residents' awareness of clean energy options and other sustainability initiatives.
The Commission will review the requirements of the Room to Roam Act (AB 1889) and evaluate its poten/al implica/ons for City planning and policy. The Commission will also develop a project charter and evaluate the feasibility of a Class I trail along Paoli Loop to improve connec/vity and expand active transportation opportunities.
And lastly, the Commission will provide input on design of open space, ac/ve transporta/on, and sustainability projects in the current Capital Improvement Program, and review future projects.
