D. Project Background & Project Description
Describe the project background and the existing conditions of the larger project area and or project vicinity.

Discussion can include background information on current roadway configuration, missing bike and pedestrian facilities, and importance of project to local active transportation users. If possible, upload photographs of existing conditions.

Describe the project in its entirety. Include the purpose and need, benefit, and location of the project. Provide a map showing existing and proposed project improvements. If available, upload typical cross-sections showing vehicular lane widths, active transportation facilities width, and any landscaping or lighting features in section J.

Spring Street Sidewalks Improvement Project (Project) is located on Spring Street between Lakeshore Drive and Limited Street, just south of the Civic Center. Project is within a SB 535 Disadvantaged Community per CalEnviroScreen 4.0, which is in the 82.5 percentile and a Top 25% Disadva ntaged Communities. This area of the City is also in the 93% percentile and 99% percentile in poverty and cardiovascular disease categories, res pectively. The City of Lake Elsinore, through its Active LE Plan, recommends physical activities and provides public outreach to its citizens to be m ore active and encourage walking and biking to local destinations. Project proposes to remove existing non-compliant sidewalks, ADA ramps, c urb and a failing retaining wall. The project area includes many tripping hazards like broken sidewalk and rubber sidewalk pavers which have lift ed and has shifted. In addition, there are 18” curbs that are adjacent to the pavement which makes for a very unsafe condition for pedestrians. T he improvements will provide linkage for residents to schools, parks and local businesses in the City’s downtown area. A Project Map is provided as part Exhibit A, which shows the downtown area and the project limits.

Per City’s Downtown Specific Plan, Spring Street is a two-lane Local Street with a curb-to-curb of 46 feet. The speed limit of Spring Street is 25 mp h. The project road segment of Spring Street has missing or broken curb, gutter, broken sidewalk sections and a failing retaining wall. Exhibit A sh ows the existing conditions of the project area.

The City proposes to install sidewalks along the length of the Spring Street project. The curb, gutter, ramps, and sidewalks will be ADA compliant and constructed per City Standards. There will be sections of retaining curb to make up elevation differences. The installation of these improvem ents will be within City right-of-way. In Appendix C, proposed project plans are provided as a reference that show the extent of the proposed sid ewalk improvements. Constructing these sidewalk improvements will provide safer travel way for the pedestrians. Two (2) school are located ad jacent to or within 1/2 mile of the improvements, where many students in the community walk to and from school. Elderly and disabled persons wi ll be provided a safe path to access the Senior Activity Center. Approximately 1,500 linear feet of curb, gutter, and sidewalk will be constructed as part of this project. Recent City projects have paved many local streets within 1/2 mile of the Spring Street Sidewalk project. Providing these conn ections will link Spring Street to the local downtown community and to many existing schools, parks, commercial centers, and restaurants.

E. Destinations Served (2 points for each destination served, max 14 points) Briefly summarize and list all the types of destinations served by the proposed project. Provide a project vicinity map identifying all the destination types served by the proposed project within a 1/2 mile or a 1-mile radius. Destination types are schools or higher education facilities, commercial centers, municipal or any other civic centers, medical facilities, restaurants and recreational centers.

For pedestrian projects, each type of destination needs to be within 1/2 mile radius to be eligible. For bicycle or multi- use trail projects, each type of destination needs to be within a 1-mile radius. Each destination type served will receive 2 points.

On the map, provide a 1/2 mile buffer or a 1-mile buffer surrounding the project site. Maps without the marked buffer will receive half of its eligible points.

Spring Street Sidewalks Improvement Project will encourage the local community to walk and bike and provide residents a safer mode of transp ortation. The destinations served within a 1/2-mile radius around the proposed project include the following: ​ Spring Street Sidewalks Improvement Project will encourage the local community to walk and bike and provide residents a safer mode of transp ortation. The destinations served within a 1/2-mile radius around the proposed project include the following: ​ • There are a total of two (2) schools that are located within 1/2 mile radius from the proposed project. Elsinore Elementary School has 544 stud ents, Jeanette Ellis School has 71 students, in attendance.​ • Downtown area includes City Hall, Lake Elsinore Cultural Center, Police Department, CAL FIRE Station, a new City Library, future City Amphithe ater, grocery stores, Channel Trail and multiple churches and restaurants within a half mile of the proposed project. ​ • One (1) commercial center which encompasses Main Street businesses and the Lake Elsinore Civic Center are located within a ½ mile radius, which include municipal services, a library, many retailers and stores and restaurants. ​ • Six (6) churches for a place of worship serving the local community. ​ Please see Exhibit B for a map of the destinations served.​

F. Safety (max 15 points)
Describe the extent to which the proposed project will increase safety for the non‐motorized public or how the project will reduce the number of non‐motorized fatalities and serious injuries.

Points (5) will be given on the severity of the existing safety hazard at the project location to demonstrate project need.

Include information about project characteristics such as: no existing shoulder within project limits, no existing/planned sidewalk or bikeway adjacent to the project, etc. Applicants may wish to consider including documented pedestrian/bicycle collision or injury history, most current and valid 85th percentile speed of motorized traffic in project limits, photos of existing safety hazards the project will address, existing pedestrian/bicycle traffic counts, student attendance figures for school served by project. Additionally generate a collision heat map for the project site using collision data from the last ten years. Heat map can be generated using the ATP Maps & Summary interface from TIMS (https://tims.berkeley.edu/) or Crossroads. Upload map in section J.

Points (5) will be given for safety countermeasures or safety enhancement features included in the project scope. Provide an explanation of how each countermeasure will improve safety for bicyclists and pedestrians.

Examples of acceptable safety countermeasures and enhancements include rectangular rapid flashing beacons, bicycle boxes, and curb extensions. (see https://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/provencountermeasures/). The use of countermeasures not appearing on the FHWA list of proven countermeasures must include a detailed description of why the countermeasure is needed and how it will improve safety for non‐motorized travel.

Points (5) will be given based on the potential of the proposed project to provide safety benefits to the non-motorized public. Applicant should draw from responses in the prior safety sections. Discuss the considerations made when evaluating and determining the type of bicycle or pedestrian facility for the project corridor. Why was Class I selected over Class IV, why was Class II considered over Class III?

Currently, pedestrians are forced to walk on broken sidewalk panels or rubber paver squares which are uneven and cause tripping hazards. The rubber pavers were a part of a Grant the City received around 2005 to utilize recycled rubber products. After a few years, the rubber pavers corn ers curled up, creating a tripping hazard. Concrete sidewalks will provide a long term solution and a safer pedestrian experience. In addition the curb height is 18” in some areas, making for an unsafe condition share the road with motorists due to the lack of sidewalk improvements or walk un the unpaved shoulder. This creates a highly undesirable and unsafe mode of travel and discourages residents to be active.​ • There are a total of two (2) schools that are located within 1/2 mile radius from the proposed project. Elsinore Elementary School has 544 stud ents, Jeanette Ellis School has 71 students, in attendance.​ Many students who live in the community would benefit the proposed sidewalk improvements which allow them to walk safely to and from scho ol.​
Average Daily Traffic ADT of Spring Street is 2,485 vehicles per day with a posted speed limit of 25 mph and 85th percentile speed of 31 mph. Bas ed on the Berkeley TIMS heat map, there has been a total of 13 pedestrian and 6 bicycle related accidents in the last 10 years. around the project area, including one (1) pedestrian related collision on Spring Street and Graham Ave. This project aims to minimize both pedestrian and bicycle accidents around the project area by implementing ADA compliant ramps and sidewalks.​ The proposed sidewalk, curb and gutter and ADA ramps will provide a safe and ADA compliant path of travel for the local community and safely separate pedestrians and motorists. The proposed project will also encourage use of active transportation and increase community health.

G. Multimodal Access (1 point each, max 6 points)
In a project vicinity map, identify all the bus routes, Metrolink stations, park-and-ride facilities, bicycle lanes, sidewalks or crosswalks improved by the proposed project within a 1/2 mile or a 1-mile radius.

For pedestrian projects, these amenities need to be within 1/2 mile radius to be eligible. For bicycle or multi-use trail projects, amenities need to be within a 1-mile radius. Each amenity will receive 1 point.

On the map, provide a 1/2 mile buffer or a 1-mile buffer surrounding the project site. Maps without the marked buffer will receive half of its eligible points. Upload map in section J.

Below, discuss how the project along with its nearby amenities encourage multi-modalism. Briefly summarize and list all the bus stops, Metrolink Stations, park-and-ride facilities, missing bicycle or sidewalks, or crosswalks enhanced by the proposed project and indicate if the items are existing or planned.

The Spring Street Sidewalks Improvement project will provide continuity of the sidewalks that encourages the community to walk and provide a safer access to the Riverside Transit Authority (RTA) Bus Stops, with closest bus stop under 500 ft to the project. Constructing the missing link sid ewalks on Spring Street provides for improved connectivity for all users to access to parks and downtown amenities by foot as well as complete l inkage to the Lake Elsinore Channel Trail for recreational purposes. The Channel Trail is both a pedestrian and bicycle trail and extends from the l ake to Riverside Drive. Exhibit C displays the Channel Trail and how sidewalks provide continuity to each of the bus stops within the 1/2-mile radiu s of the project site. The bus stops are part of the Route 8 of the RTA, which includes the 9 stops:​
