Short Title Description of Project: Richmond Ferry to Bridge Bicycle & Pedestrian Network Improvements Amount of claim: $ 178,400
Functional Description of Project:
The project is an essential element of the City’s effort to carry out Key Corridor recommendations of the Ferry to Bridge to Greenway Complete Streets Plan (F2B2G Plan) by completing the spine Bay Trail between the Richmond-San Francisco Ferry Terminal, the Richmond-San Rafael (RSR) Bridge Trail and Point Molate Trail now funded for construction beginning mid-2022. Construction is starting on a protected two-way bikeway between the Ferry Terminal and Garrard Blvd. at the gateway to Point Richmond. This project will extend the bikeway to the RSR Bridge trailhead at Castro Street as shown on Attachment 1 and make pedestrian safety improvements en route through the Point Richmond Historic District. This TDA grant would complete funding for the project when added to WCCTAC’s STMP funding allocation in the amount of $241,000 and a contribution of $28,000 from Chevron. The project is a very high priority due to the heavy cyclist and pedestrian traffic through this congested area with 195,000 bicyclist and pedestrian trips over the RSR Bridge Trail since November 2019.
The project will implement F2B2G Plan Interim Design Concepts shown in Attachment 2 and the 30% engineering design plans shown in Attachment 3 with exception of the short section of cycle track on West Richmond Avenue potentially requiring high-cost BNSF grade crossing improvements. In summary, these cyclist and pedestrian safety improvements include:
Installation of protected two-way cycle tracks
Reconfiguration of motor vehicle parking
High visibility crosswalks with ADA-compliant curb ramps Sidewalk extensions to reduce street crossing distances AC Transit bus stop relocation and improvements to accommodate the cycle track Wayfinding signs and pavement markings
