Active Projects
Table 13 lists the active transportation
projects Richmond is working on. The
projects are listed with their current status.
The City of Richmond have applied and are
considering applying for funding through a
number of different grants, including:
• One Bay Area Grant
• Highway Safety Improvement Program
Grant
• Transformative Climate Communities
Grant
• Clean California Grant
• California Active Transportation Program
• Safe Streets for All Grant
• Urban Greening Grant
• Sustainable Transportation Planning
Grant
• Transportation Development Act Grants
• Transportation for Livable Communities
Grants
In addition to these competitive grant
programs, the City has also had success
implementing projects using paving funds
from SB1 and using developer fees. The
number of projects the City can concurrently
develop varies based on a number of factors,
including staff capacity, project complexity,
and project funding.
The project prioritization process and results
discussed in the prior section is intended to
guide the City’s limited resources to which
project should be implemented first. The
following Project Funding section will help
the City understand planning-level project
costs and provides a detailed list of funding

Project Funding
The bicycle and pedestrian improvement
projects in the BPAP will require funding
for design (i.e., detailed engineering work)
and construction. bicycle and pedestrian
improvement projects is available at all levels
of government (local, regional, state, and
federal) and from private sources. Project
funding can take the form of competitive
grants, formula-based allocations, tax
measure-based funding, funds from private
development, and others. Appendix C
provides a detailed list of potential funding
sources with a brief description.
Table 14 summarizes the type of projects
and project phases (planning, design,
construction) that each funding opportunity
listed in Appendix C will fund.
Planning Level Cost Estimates
Table 15 provides high and low planning
level cost estimates for each class of
bicycle facility. Table 16 provides the same
information for different types of spot
improvements. Cost estimates include
30% extra for “soft costs” (items like City
staff time and other administrative-related
work). These are order of magnitude
planning budgetary figures; a complete
detailed engineering design will be needed
to determine the most probable cost of
individual projects.

Active Transportation Supportive
Programs and Policies
The following set of policies and programs
should be considered to support
the implementation of the proposed
improvements in this plan. These policies
and programs will be subject to additional
community engagement to understand
community support, funding availability,
and allocation to determine how they
can be implemented. Further discussion
and refinement will also to be needed to
determine any required changes to the
municipal code and who the implementing/
enforcement department should be.
Internal departmental coordination over
the next two years is also recommended
to further develop and evaluate the rollout
and implementation of said policies and
programs.
Maintenance
Timely and regular maintenance of bicycle
facilities, shared-use paths, trails, and
sidewalks are critical for their continued
safe and comfortable use. Inadequately
maintained facilities can create potentially
hazardous conditions and reduce the
accessibility and connectivity of the bicycle
and pedestrian networks. Providing safe,
accessible, comfortable, and well-maintained
walking, bicycling, and rolling facilities allows
such active transportation to be a viable
travel option. Prioritizing the procurement
of new equipment for conducting regular
maintenance and sweeping on new
facilities such as separated bikeway lanes
will benefit the City’s active transportation
long-term goals by encouraging people
bicycling and walking to use these well-
maintained facilities. The following section
includes maintenance policies that the City
will endeavor to meet based on ongoing
constraints such as staffing and funding:
Sidewalk Repair and Maintenance
The City has an established and codified
sidewalk repair and maintenance program.
Richmond’s Municipal Code (12.36.025)
states that property owners are responsible
for the repair and maintenance of sidewalks
(and all associated costs) for sidewalks
adjacent to their property. To help reduce
the burden on low-income homeowners
and encourage more rapid repairs, the City
should consider the following actions:
• Conduct a citywide sidewalk inventory
to understand where missing and
broken sidewalks exist. This study
could also include an inventory of
curb ramps and other accessibility
treatments. Green conflict markings help all roadways
users know about upcoming potential
conflicts between people bicycling and
driving near intersections.
106
Implementation
Richmond Bicycle and Pedestrian Action Plan
• Develop requirements that sidewalks
be repaired when properties are sold,
homeowners file for specific permits, or
other conditions.
• Educate residents, homeowners, and
businesses about their sidewalk repair
and maintenance responsibilities.
• Develop a program to coordinate with
property owners to trim and maintain
overgrown vegetation.
• Provide subsidies or other financial
assistance for sidewalk repairs to
reduce the financial burden for lower-
income homeowners.
• Adjust City standards and design
guidelines to use sidewalk-friendly tree
species (trees with roots that won’t
affect the sidewalk) where appropriate.
Closing Sidewalk Gaps
After completing the citywide sidewalk
inventory mentioned previously, the City
should develop a prioritization process to
rank the sidewalk gaps by importance and
gradually work toward addressing all gaps
across the city. The currently available
sidewalk gap data (see Figure 02 , page 8)
can serve as a starting point until funds for
the full inventory have been allocated.
NOTE: the data contained in Figure 02 (see page 8 ) is not an exhaustive inventory of existing/missing sidewalks. The data has been compiled by City staff based on internal knowledge and feedback received from the community.
Sidewalk Access
Community feedback indicated that one
of the most frequent types of pedestrian
issues is the obstruction of sidewalks by
parked vehicles (see Figure 02 , page 8).
This includes vehicles that have been
driven onto the sidewalk, vehicles that have
been partially parked off street on private
property, and vehicles overhanging into the
sidewalk from a driveway. The City should
Tree roots have uplifted this segment of sidewalk, creating an uneven walking and rolling path. consider the development of policies to
educate the public on the importance of
keeping sidewalks clear of obstructions and
not blocking the sidewalk, including legality,
access, and safety.
107
Implementation
Richmond Bicycle and Pedestrian Action Plan
Maintenance Policies
The City should consider the implementation
of the following policies to maintain the
bicycle and pedestrian network in a state of
good repair, high usability, and accessibility.
Implementation of all maintenance policies
is subject to sufficient allocation of staff,
capital, and funding resources.
Policy 1: Identify all maintenance
stakeholders across City of Richmond
Departments and partner agencies/
jurisdictions.
A. Regularly coordinate to establish and
update maintenance needs across
the City and share resources when
possible and practical.
B. Create a facility inspection schedule
to inspect facilities and update
maintenance priorities regularly.
Policy 2: Maintain designated walking and
bicycling facilities to be safe, comfortable,
accessible, and usable for walking, bicycling,
and rolling.
A. Sweep streets regularly with priority
given to roads with higher pedestrian
and bicycle traffic volumes.
B. Ensure Richmond Public Works has
all necessary equipment to maintain
all facility types, including trails and
separated bikeways.
C. Develop a schedule to sweep
separated bikeways regularly.
D. Trim overhanging vegetation and
work with appropriate property
owners to maintain a clear path
of travel along pedestrian and
bicycle facilities. Consider working
with neighborhood councils and
community groups to help maintain
vegetated pieces of infrastructure.
E. Develop and implement an
appropriate minimum paving surface
standard for bicycle boulevards
and other low-stress bikeways that
maintain a higher safety and comfort
level for active transportation users.
F. Update the City’s repaving project
methodology to prioritize bicycle
boulevards and other low-stress
bikeways to maintain the minimum
paving surface standard.
G. Incorporate maintenance needs into
the design of separated bikeways
and other facilities to ensure proper
maintenance after construction.
H. Develop a construction mitigation
policy for impacted pedestrian
and bicycle facilities requiring City
staff and contractors to create fully
accessible detours of equivalent
standards, where possible, when
construction, maintenance, or other
activities restrict the use of bikeways
and walkways.
Policy 3: Maintain bicycle parking and other
support facilities
for a more comprehensive bicycle network.
C. Develop a procedure for inspection
and prompt repair/replacement of
damaged bicycle racks or other
facilities in the public right-of-way.
D. Encourage public event organizers
to provide and publicize valet
bicycle parking at special events.
Amend the City’s event permitting
process to include bicycle access
accommodations and parking as part
of necessary traffic control provisions.
Policy 4: Develop a communications
protocol for walking, bicycling, or rolling-
related updates.
A. Regularly update digital and printed
bicycle and trail network maps.
Distribute paper maps at libraries,
community centers, bike shops, and
other locations.
B. Promote Richmond’s eTRAKiT service
as an easy-to-use method for the
public to report maintenance and
other facility issues.

A Quick-build curb extensions in Oakland near the Lake Merritt BART Station.
Many infrastructure improvements
(especially pedestrian projects and
intersection geometry changes) can be
completed using signage, striping, and
other quick-build strategies. Facilities like
curb extensions, medians, and separated
bikeways are examples of treatments that
can be built with quick-build materials. These
improvements can be left permanently with
the quick-build materials or used as a short-
term improvement until additional funding
for design and construction can be secured
for permanent, more expensive design
installations. Constructing improvements
with quick-build materials can result in more
immediate safety and comfort enhancements
at lower costs. Using quick-build materials
also allows the City to trial design changes
before committing to long-term investments.
There are many resources available online
that describe quick-build projects in more
detail. The California Bicycle Coalition has an
80-page guide with details on how to move
forward with these low-cost, high-impact
project types.

Public Art
Public art is a crucial component of
placemaking and allows community
members to help establish and reinforce
a public identity. Public art can take
many forms, including sculptures, murals,
decorative crosswalks, painted curb
extensions, and themed street furniture.
Public art can also help create a more
welcoming and engaging environment
to walk, roll, and bike through; helping
to encourage more people to use active
transportation. Public art can be coordinated
through the City’s Public Art Advisory
Commission and the Richmond Arts and
Culture Commission.
The City should work to include public
art and placemaking elements wherever
possible with active transportation projects.
Next Steps
Project Timing and Funding
Projects can take a long time to get from “a
line on a map” to being fully constructed.
Limited staff time and limited City resources
may constrict how many projects can move
forward at a given time and how fast those
projects move. In some cases, funding
for project phases (planning, engineering
design, and construction) is found separately,
sometimes with years between phases. As
the City wins competitive grants, it may take
one to two years for the City to get access to
those funds to continue moving the project
forward. The realities of active transportation
funding strengthen the importance of project
prioritization to guide City staff in selecting
projects that will provide the most significant
safety and overall community benefits.

Active Transportation Progress Reports
This plan recommends City staff present
updates on current active transportation
projects, grant opportunities, recent
community feedback, and other relevant
updates to the City Council, Bicycle and
Pedestrian Advisory Committee, and the
Richmond Neighborhood Coordinating
Council biannually.
Partner Entities
The City of Richmond is not the only
jurisdiction or entity responsible for
planning, designing, and constructing
walking, bicycling, and rolling facilities
across the City. Some of the bicycle
and pedestrian improvement project
recommendations in the BPAP are in the
rights-of-way of other agencies, jurisdictions,
or private owners, such as Caltrans, Contra
Costa County, or Union Pacific Railroad. The
City will coordinate with the appropriate
stakeholders for planning, design, funding,
and implementation. These partner agencies
may have final approval on these projects,
even if they are located within the City of
Richmond. Examples of projects out of the
City’s right-of-way include trails on railroad
company property, bicycle facilities on
Caltrans-operated roads, or pedestrian
crossing improvements at interchanges.

Richmond Bicycle and Pedestrian Action Plan
What Projects Move Forward Next?
Given the limited amount of staff time and budget for new projects, several factors will impact which projects move forward and when.
Figure 25 shows the development and implementation process for projects in the BPAP.
Focusing on Safety
Throughout the community engagement process, community
members consistently stated that improving safety was their top priority. Travel Safe Richmond analyzed collision histories across the City and developed recommendations that responded to those locations. Additionally, safety was one of the major components of the project prioritization process (one-quarter of possible priority points).
When seeking funding sources, many competitive grants have collision history as a score factor. Some grants, including the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) and those from the Office of Traffic Safety (OTS), focus on responding to collision locations and other safety concerns.
Interpreting Prioritization Results
The overall prioritization rankings provide an order of projects that can improve safety and benefit the community. Overall project rankings can help select projects for Active Transportation Program (ATP) grant applications or for projects to add to the City’s next Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). Breaking down the scores of the different inputs can provide guidance for more specific needs. For example, City staff could sort projects by order of the “safety” score to find the best projects for HSIP or OTS grants. The rankings are not intended to be a hardened list but rather a guide for staff to select projects based on a variety of factors that present opportunities to move projects forward.

community and show support for the bicycle
and pedestrian improvement projects that
matter to you most. There are multiple ways
you can get involved:
Attend Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory
Committee Meetings
The Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory
Committee (BPAC) meets monthly to discuss
current and future bicycle and pedestrian
improvement projects and needs. City staff
present updates, and there are opportunities
for public comment. If you don’t have time to
attend, checking the
BPAC website is also a
great way to stay informed.
Get Involved with Your Local
Neighborhood Council
Neighborhood councils are great ways to
meet your neighbors and stay informed
about different happenings in your
area. Neighborhood councils receive
presentations and updates from City staff on
projects and other issues. You can find your
neighborhood council on the
City’s website .
From the main page, type “Neighborhood
Council” in the search bar.
Get Involved with Local Walking and
Biking Organizations
Supporting local community and advocacy
groups like Rich City Rides and Bike East
Bay is another way to advocate for bicycle
and pedestrian improvement projects in
your community. These groups focus on
advocating for safer roads and getting
more people walking and bicycling. Your

Key Takeaways
Over the past several years, the City has developed numerous citywide plans that set safety-focused policies and goals.
Richmond has also developed corridor plans that include multimodal access and safety recommendations for specific corridors and area plans that prioritize improvements across broader regions. Contra Costa Transportation Authority (CCTA) develops countywide plans that support the City of Richmond’s efforts and work towards unified regional connectivity at the county level. In general, many of the documents reviewed emphasize the need for a transportation system that supports safe, comfortable, and equitable transportation networks for vulnerable users (e.g., people walking, biking, and rolling – especially youth, seniors, and those with limited physical mobility or limited mobility options). Major themes throughout the documents reviewed included:
• Need for improving safety and comfort of all
users
• Need for improving connectivity and access to
multimodal transportation networks under a
more equitable approach
• Need to enhance connectivity to neighboring
jurisdictions
• Need to standardize implementation of Active
Transportation facilities and networks
• Need to improve quality of life by focusing on
improving health (personal, environmental, and
economic)
• Commitment to encourage and promote
walking and bicycling as viable modes of
transportation
Future recommendations included in the Richmond Bicycle and Pedestrian Infrastructure Action Plan will consider these key themes and the infrastructure recommendations made in the plans reviewed for this memorandum.
Document Review
The following sections summarize previous citywide plans, corridor and area plans that recommend and guide transportation safety improvements in Richmond.
Richmond General Plan (2012)
The Circulation Element of the Richmond General Plan (2012) provides a vision and policy framework for transportation planning in Richmond. Richmond has a robust multimodal transportation environment that can foster trips across various travel modes: walking, bicycling, rolling (skating, scooting, or using mobility devices), public transportation (bus, commuter rail, heavy rail, and ferry), and driving. In this vision, the City’s transportation network strives to balance the efficiency and needs of all modes of travel, with traffic calming, dedicated bicycle facilities, trails, and sidewalks supporting safe and comfortable conditions for all modes, especially people walking, bicycling, and rolling.
The Circulation Element outlines a place-based circulation classification system tailored to surrounding land use, street function, and desired character. This classification system assigns modal priorities to each accessway type and provides design recommendations for each one. While the General Plan does not include a transportation safety analysis, policies and actions in the Circulation Element set safety as a high priority:
FINAL 09-29-22
Alta Planning + Design, Inc. City of Richmond 3
• Policy CR1.5 calls for safe and convenient walking and bicycling. • Action CR1.C calls for the development and implementation of Bicycle and Pedestrian Plans. • Policy CR3.1 focuses on safety and accessibility, with a focus on walking, bicycling, and transit. The policy also emphasizes at-grade railroad safety, with a dedicated action item for rail crossing improvements. • Action CR3.B calls for traffic calming on streets that experience speeding or cut-through traffic. • Action CR2.F: calls for the city to explore the potential to lower speed limits around schools, parks, and other public gathering spaces.
In addition to safety-focused policies and actions, the General Plan also included ones that focus on improving conditions for active transportation users:
• Policy CR1.1: encourages multiple circulation options and equitable transit access/service throughout the City. • Policy CR1.2: calls for interconnected streets that adequately serve the needs of all roadway users. • Policy CR1.3: calls for enhanced linkages within Richmond and beyond to neighboring cities and areas and improved connections to public transportation.
• Policy CR1.6: calls for a comprehensive network of multi-use trails throughout the City and region. • Action CR1.E: calls for expanded multi-use trails and greenways within Richmond to improve connections to existing and future trails and improve connectivity to trails from more neighborhoods across the city. • Action CR1.K: calls for the development of station area plans around major transit hubs, including improving active transportation connectivity.
• Policy CR2.1: calls for improved access and connectivity within neighborhoods and to major destinations in the City.
• Policy CR2.2: calls for mixed-use urban streets designed with complete street policies that balance the needs of all roadway users.
• Action CR2.B: calls for the city to work with school districts, transit providers, and other partners to develop a Safe Route to School Program.
Richmond Bicycle Master Plan
The City of Richmond Bicycle Master Plan (2011) set forth the blueprint for developing and implementing bikeways and support facilities within the City of Richmond. The Plan focused on improving inter-and intra-neighborhood connectivity, safe routes to schools, and access to major destinations such as employment centers, stores and shops, parks, trails, and open space areas.
FINAL 09-29-22
Alta Planning + Design, Inc. City of Richmond 4
The Bicycle Master Plan outlines four main goals, with Goal 3 focused on making Richmond’s streets safer for bicyclists, both during the day and at night. Goal 1 calls for the expansion of bicycle facilities and parking facilities. Goal 2 calls for the city to increase the number of people of all ages and backgrounds bicycling for any trip purpose. In the network development and prioritization, safety was worth three out of twenty points, scored based on the number of previous bicycle collisions per mile.
The Bicycle Plan proposed over 104 miles of bikeways (30 miles of Class I, 32 miles of Class II, and 42 miles of Class III).
Bicycle recommendations are concentrated in three focus areas: Hilltop, Central Richmond, and El Sobrante. Since 2011, 24 miles of bike facilities have been installed in Richmond. While the high priority corridors all received bikeway project recommendations in the Bicycle Master Plan, new design best practices including Class IV bikeways are not reflected in the network. Key hot spot corridors have also undergone in-depth safety and Complete Street studies, including Harbour Way, Rumrill/13th Street, and 23rd Street.
Richmond Pedestrian Plan
Completed in 2011, the Richmond Pedestrian Plan aimed to improve the safety, convenience, and appeal of walking throughout the City. Central Richmond, comprised of Downtown, Civic Center, transit center, and several historic mixed-income and low-income neighborhoods, is the Plan's focus. The Pedestrian Plan includes goals to improve safety, security, connectivity, equity, health, sustainability, and help revitalize neighborhoods and downtown Richmond.
The Plan included a safety and connectivity analysis with criteria for project prioritization focusing on proximity to Pedestrian Improvement Districts (General Plan), community connectivity, safety, and ease of implementation. Top-tier projects from the Richmond Pedestrian Plan included Marina Way, Nevin Avenue, the Richmond Greenway, South 23rd Street, Barrett Avenue, 6th Street, Ohio Avenue, and Harbour Way.
The Pedestrian Plan also included a Crosswalk Policy, treatment toolbox, action plan, and roundabout concept for Cutting Boulevard at Carlson Boulevard.
Crosswalk Policy/Treatment Toolbox
Richmond’s crosswalk policy included an escalating hierarchical scale of crossing enhancements, starting with marking crosswalks and advance stop/yield markings; next, curb extensions/curb radii changes, followed by Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs)/Pedestrian Hybrid Beacons (PHBs) and similar treatments; followed by signals and grade separation.
The pedestrian toolkit included infrastructure treatments like complete streets/road diets/right-sizing roadways, curb radii changes/curb extensions, neighborhood traffic circles/roundabouts, crossing improvements, street lighting, crossing islands, sidewalk improvements, street trees, and others.
Corridor and Area Plans
The following corridor and area plans expand on the goals from citywide plans and develop more specific improvement recommendations throughout the City.
FINAL 09-29-22
Alta Planning + Design, Inc. City of Richmond 5
23rd Street Streetscape Improvement Plan
The 23rd Street Project Report (2009) focused on a one mile stretch of 23rd Street and 22nd Street within the City of Richmond, between the Carlson Boulevard over-crossing at the south to Costa Avenue at the north and 22nd Street between the Carlson Boulevard over-crossing at the south to the Brooks Avenue crossover. The 23rd Street corridor hosts a major commercial district and provides a north-south arterial connection between Richmond and San Pablo and Interstate 580.
The recommended improvements outlined in the report aim to promote pedestrian and bicycle safety along the corridor by reducing the number of travel lanes, widening the sidewalks, shortening crossing distances for pedestrians, and improving overall pedestrian and bicycle visibility. The preferred alternative includes parallel vehicle parking and a Class III bike route along the corridor. Sidewalk improvements also include reallocation of space to include an amenity zone, through zone, and café seating zone. The 23rd Street project has not been funded for construction.
Rumrill/13th Street Complete Street Study
The Rumrill Boulevard and 13th Street Complete Streets Study (2015) was developed through an intensive community- based design process focused on transforming the street into a safe and friendly place for people and businesses by improving walking, bicycling, and transit conditions. Both the Cities of San Pablo and Richmond and community members of adjacent neighborhoods identified Rumrill Boulevard/13th Street as a corridor in need of a safety, comfort, and placemaking vision for the corridor. The Study area covered those two streets between Harbour Way/Pennsylvania Avenue in Richmond and San Pablo Avenue in San Pablo. The Study identified existing conditions, documented alternatives development for corridor-wide improvements, and provided a preferred concept alternative for the community’s complete streets vision for the corridor.
Because of safety concerns along the corridor, resulting from limited crossing opportunities and perceptions of speeding traffic, the Study included a detailed analysis of pedestrian conditions, including a collision history report. The final preferred concept for Rumrill/13th Street included a lane reduction with space reallocated to pedestrian, bus riders, and bicycle improvements. Other improvements called for shorter crosswalk distances, sidewalk repair, implementation of Class IV or cycle tracks, bus shelters, and far side bus stops. The project has been funded for construction in Richmond and San Pablo; construction is expected to be completed in the near future.
South Richmond Transportation Connectivity Plan (SRTCP) The South Richmond Transportation Connectivity Plan (2015) identified deficiencies in the existing transportation system, with a specific focus on critical transportation corridors in South Richmond. The Plan set forth recommendations to improve multimodal connectivity to and within the area, while strengthening businesses and neighborhoods, to overcome highway and railroad barriers. Key objectives of the SRTCP included connecting South Richmond Neighborhoods to opportunities for employment, education, and recreation on the South Shoreline. The plan also called for connecting key opportunity sites in South Richmond with major transit hubs at Richmond and El Cerrito BART stations and the SF Bay Ferry terminal.
The SRTCP also proposed implementing complete streets designs for major corridors in South Richmond including Harbour Way South, Marina Way South, Hoffman Boulevard, Carlson Boulevard, Central Avenue, and Bayview Avenue.
Some corridors have been identified as priority routes for transit and freight. Other corridors were selected to include recommendations to improve the safety, comfort, convenience, and connectivity for walking, biking, or rolling.
FINAL 09-29-22
Alta Planning + Design, Inc. City of Richmond 6
Multimodal safety was one of six criteria to determine project and corridor prioritization. The SRTCP also informed the development of the more recent Ferry to Bridge to Greenway Complete Streets Plan (see below), with multimodal investments on Harbour Way designed and funded.
Yellow Brick Road Iron Triangle Walkable Neighborhood Plan The Yellow Brick Road Walkable Neighborhoods Project (2015) identified barriers, issues, and opportunities in the community to design and implement complete streets improvements along a number roadways in the Yellow Brick Road (YBR) network. The YBR concept was conceived by local youth living in the Iron Triangle neighborhood to safely link key areas in the neighborhood through bright yellow brick patterns on the sidewalks and roadways. The routes would connect the important assets in the community, including local elementary schools, parks, and transit.
The YBR project included a collision analysis and proposed design solutions to improve safety and walkability in the Iron Triangle. Root Routes (Phase 1) forming the backbone of the network included Pennsylvania Avenue, 7th Street, and Elm Avenue. Construction of the Root Routes is expected to be completed in 2022. Trunk Routes (Phase 2) including the Richmond Greenway, 16th Street, and 8th Street, would create cross-neighborhood north-south and east-west connectors, greatly expanding the spine of the neighborhood network. Branch Routes (Phase 3) call for the creation of additional connectivity and routing options for residents, giving them more practical transportation options to BART, schools, community centers, and parks. Funding for Phases 2 and 3 implementation has not been identified.
Richmond Wellness Trail Study
The 2016 Richmond Wellness Trail Vision Plan provided a comprehensive plan for a north-south corridor connecting existing transit facilities and key destinations. Using the Pedestrian Plan and Bicycle Master Plan as a foundation, the plan proposed a series of bicycle enhancements and pedestrian amenities connecting the city’s existing infrastructure to a number of destinations. Important destinations along the corridor include the Bay Trail, Ferry Terminal, Greenway, Marina Bay, Richmond BART Station, and Richmond Kaiser Permanente Medical Center. The project recommended a main spine along Marina Way from the shoreline to Central Richmond.
By proposing design elements along the corridor such as public art, fitness stations, and graphic wayfinding coupled with infrastructure improvements, the plan aimed to develop a tailored “wellness theme.” With a focus on health, wellness, and safety, the Plan included separated bike facilities, pedestrian accessibility improvements, and traffic calming. The Wellness Trail proposed improvements on Marina Way, 16th Street, and 9th Street. Phase 1 of the Wellness Trail, between BART and MLK Park, completed construction in 2022.
First Mile/Last Mile Transportation Strategic Plan
The 2017 Richmond First Mile/Last Mile Transportation Strategic Plan focused on providing first mile/last mile connections to the city’s varied transit services and enhance its transportation network. The plan identified bicycle, pedestrian, and transit barriers leading up to the Richmond Ferry Terminal and the Richmond BART Station. The study recommended ten priority projects that to facilitate easy, safe, and efficient access to Richmond’s transit hubs. Priority projects with a safety focus include Macdonald Avenue and Nevin Avenue Yellow Brick Road Improvements, Ferry to Bridge Complete Streets, Barrett Avenue and Marina Way Intersection Improvements, and Marina Way Pedestrian

Improvements. In addition to corridor improvements, programmatic recommendations put forth by the plan included bike share and e-scooter permit programs and support programs for commuters, seniors, and paratransit users. The first phase of the City’s bike share started implementation in 2021.
Ferry to Bridge to Greenway Complete Streets Plan
The Richmond Ferry to Bridge to Greenway Complete Streets Plan (F2B2G Plan, 2020) envisioned valuable connections for walking and bicycling to and between the Richmond Ferry, the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge Trail, and the Richmond Greenway. The F2B2G Plan, when implemented, will provide a balance of permanent regional connections and local safety improvements for people of all ages and abilities, including those in disadvantaged and traditionally underserved areas of the City. It will directly serve four City neighborhoods: Marina Bay, Santa Fe, Iron Triangle, and Point Richmond, as well as visitors from surrounding places.
The plan builds on previous Complete Streets concepts, including the Complete Streets concept for Harbour Way and the Richmond Wellness Trail and existing trails and greenways in Richmond. The F2B2G Plan included a review of the existing infrastructure in the plan area, a development of a planning framework, and presented a summary of issues and opportunities for the area. The proposed network concept features two-way separated cycle tracks on Harbour Way, Hoffman Boulevard, Cutting Boulevard, and Tewksbury Avenue, along with bike boulevards and bike lanes to safely connect neighborhoods with the Richmond Greenway and the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. A quick build project in 2019 completed a portion of the bicycle facilities along Ohio Avenue, Garrard Boulevard, and Tewksbury Avenue. Construction on the Harbour Way South, Hoffman, and Cutting cycle tracks estimates completion in 2022.
Harbour Way Complete Streets
The City developed a concept for a two-way separated cycle track and pedestrian improvements in 2018 as part of a California Active Transportation Program grant application. The concept has been expanded and updated as part of the Ferry to Bridge to Greenway Complete Streets Plan. A quick-build design for the Complete Streets improvements on Harbour Way from the ferry terminal to Hoffman Boulevard is funded. The City was expected to begin construction on the project in 2021 and coordinate with the complete streets project on Hoffman and Cutting Boulevards.
BART Walk and Bicycle Network Gap Study
The BART Walk and Bicycle Network Gap Study (2020) evaluated potential improvements to the pedestrian network within a ½ mile of 17 focus BART stations. The study summarized outcomes and near- to mid-term recommendations from a series of stakeholder walk audits that took place over three years.
For the Richmond BART station, recommendations included improvements on Nevin Avenue to the west of the station, safety upgrades at Barrett Avenue and Marina Way, safer crossings and bike lane gap closures on Barrett Avenue, and pedestrian improvements along 19th Street between Macdonald and Barrett Avenues. The Study also recommended considering a road diet on Macdonald Avenue and a scramble phase at Macdonald and 16th Streets.

Countywide Plans
The following plans from the Contra Costa Transportation Authority (CCTA) integrate or expand on City of Richmond planning efforts.
Contra Costa Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan
CCTA adopted its first Contra Costa Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan (CBPP) in 2003 and updated it again in 2009. The CBPP builds on and expands the goals, policies, and strategies of the Countywide Transportation Plan (CTP).
Both plans set goals for increasing and encouraging more walking and bicycling from people of all ages and abilities – equitably across the County - and identify actions CCTA and its partners should take to achieve them.
The CBPP included a collision density analysis for both bicycles and pedestrians and a level of traffic stress analysis, resulting in a proposed low-stress countywide bikeway network. For the City of Richmond, bikeways for inclusion in the countywide network included San Pablo Avenue, Rumrill Boulevard, Barrett Avenue, and Cutting Boulevard.
The CBPP also designated Priority Pedestrian Areas (PPAs) for focused investment, including all of Central and South Richmond and Richmond Annex. The PPAs identify locations with higher residential and employment densities, high growth forecasts, proximity to major transit stops, proximity to schools, and collision history.
The Plan also included educational and encouragement program recommendations. These include Safe Routes to Schools, adult education programs, transportation demand management (TDM) programs, bicycle parking, end-of-trip facilities (water, showers, lockers, etc.), bike share, wayfinding, and evaluation.
Richmond Area Community-Based Transportation Plan
Led by CCTA and completed in 2020, the Community-Based Transportation Plan (CBTP) for the Richmond Area recommended a series of projects and programs to improve parts of Richmond and several neighboring areas. These recommendations were prioritized using evaluation criteria developed with plan advisors. The CBTP focused on addressing the needs of economically disadvantaged communities in Contra Costa County (based on MTC’s Communities of Concern metric) through robust community engagement and demographic analysis to identify issues, priorities, and potential solutions for mobility.
Based on feedback from a Project Working Group, the Richmond Area CBTP selected four criteria for project prioritization: community priorities, increased access, financial feasibility, and ease of implementation. The CBTP outlines a set of high need and high potential projects and programs based on these criteria. These included: closing gaps in the bicycle network, improving active access to schools, pedestrian crossing improvements, closing sidewalk gaps, and others. The Plan also prioritized transit-specific and safe routes to schools projects and programs. While a collision analysis was not central to the CBTP, results of the robust community outreach process mainly centered on improving the safety and accessibility of the transportation network. Priorities in Richmond included a focus on ADA accessibility in North Richmond, sidewalk gaps and arterial safety along San Pablo Avenue, and arterial corridor safety on MacDonald Avenue.

Re: Travel Safe Richmond - Bicycle and Pedestrian Project Funding Sources
The following memo provides information about available funding sources for the City of Richmond to implement the proposed Bicycle and Pedestrian improvements as part of the Travel Safe Richmond project.
The memo has been organized to include Local and Regional funding sources as well as State and Federal programs which fund the implementation and maintenance of bicycle and pedestrian facilities. A comparative matrix has also been included at the end of the memo which summarizes the activities covered under each funding source.
Funding Sources
Local and Regional Funding Sources
Contra Costa County Measure J
Measure J provides funding for countywide and local transportation projects and programs through the year 2034. Eligible improvements include pedestrian, bicycle, and trail facilities, local streets and road maintenance, and transportation for livable communities.
Funds are programmed by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority.
Transportation Fund for Clean Air, County Program Manager Fund The Transportation Fund for Clean Air funds bicycle facilities including paths, lanes, routes, lockers, and racks.
Funds are programmed by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority.
511 Contra Costa Bike Rack and Locker Program
511 Contra Costa is a countywide program that strives to reduce traffic congestions and improve air quality by providing the public with resources and tools that promote mobility options beyond driving alone. Eligible projects include bicycle parking racks and lockers.
Funds are programmed by Contra Costa County.
Funding Opportunities and Matrix
Alta Planning + Design, Inc Metropolitan Transportation Commission | 2 One Bay Area Grant
The One Bay Area grant program (OBAG) emphasizes funding for projects within Priority Development Areas (PDAs) in the region that are in-line with housing and land use goals. Projects that are within or provide access to these PDAs could qualify for OBAG grants.
Funds are programmed by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority.
Transportation Development Act Article 3
Transportation Development Act Article 3 (TDA 3) provides funding annually for bicycle and pedestrian projects. Two percent of TDA 3 funds collected within the county are used for TDA 3 projects. MTC policies require that all projects be reviewed by a BPAC or similar body before approval.
Funds are programmed by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority.
Bicycle Facilities Grant Program
Throughout the nine-county Bay Area, the Bicycle Facilities Grant program strives to reduce emissions from on- road vehicles and improve air quality by helping residents and commuters shift to bicycling and walking as alternatives to driving for short distances and first- and-last mile trips. The Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) has grant programs that fund both on-street facilities and bicycle parking facilities. Funding comes from the BAAQMD’s Transportation Fund for Clean Air.
Funds are programmed by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District.
Climate Initiatives Innovative Grants Fund
MTC’s Climate Initiatives Program promotes innovative ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the Bay Area; and taps federal funding for a pair of competitive grant programs. Innovative grants of $1 million and up are used to support high-impact projects that can be replicated around the region.
Funds are programmed by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission.
New Development or Redevelopment/Rehabilitation
Future new development and redevelopment projects including new road construction, resurfacing, and construction projects are one method of providing pedestrian improvements and bike facilities. To ensure that pedestrian and bicycle improvements are included in these projects, it is important that the review process includes an individual (designated active transportation coordinator) or group (BPAC) to monitor the review process.
Funds are programmed by the City of Richmond.
Funding Opportunities and Matrix
Alta Planning + Design, Inc Metropolitan Transportation Commission | 3 Assessment Districts
Different types of assessment districts can be used to fund the construction and maintenance of bikeway facilities. Examples include Mello-Roos Community Facility Districts, Infrastructure Financing Districts (SB 308), Open Space Districts, Special Assessment Districts, Tax Increment Financing, or Lighting and Landscape Districts. These types of districts have specific requirements relating to the establishment and use of funds.
Funds are programmed by the City of Richmond.
Impact Fees
Another potential local source of funding are developer impact fees, typically tied to trip generation and traffic impacts as a result of proposed projects. A developer may be required to help mitigate the overall impact of vehicular trips by paying an impact fee; the City should ensure that planning policies consider bicycle and pedestrian planning, design, and construction costs to be an eligible use of these fees.
Funds are programmed by the City of Richmond.
Funding Opportunities and Matrix
Alta Planning + Design, Inc Metropolitan Transportation Commission | 4 State and Federal Grant Programs
California Active Transportation Program
California’s Active Transportation Program (ATP) funds infrastructure and programmatic projects that support the program goals of shifting trips to walking and bicycling, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and improving public health. Competitive application cycles occur every one to two years, typically in the spring or early summer. Eligible projects include construction of bicycling and walking facilities, new or expanded programmatic activities, or projects that include a combination of infrastructure and non-infrastructure components. Typically, no local match is required, though extra points are awarded to applicants who do identify matching funds.
Funds are programmed by the California Transportation Commission (CTC).
Sustainable Transportation Planning Grants
Caltrans Sustainable Transportation Planning Grants are available to communities for planning, study, and design work to identify and evaluate projects, including conducting outreach or implementing pilot projects.
Communities are typically required to provide an 11.47 percent local match, but staff time or in-kind donations are eligible to be used for the match provided the required documentation is submitted.
Funds are programmed by Caltrans.
Highway Safety Improvement Program
Caltrans offers Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) grants every one to two years. Projects on any publicly owned road or active transportation facility are eligible, including bicycle and pedestrian improvements. HSIP focuses on projects that explicitly address documented safety challenges through proven countermeasures, are implementation-ready, and demonstrate cost-effectiveness.
Funds are programmed by Caltrans.
Solutions for Congested Corridors Program
Funded by SB1, the Congested Corridors Program strives to reduce congestion in highly traveled and congested roads through performance improvements that balance transportation improvements, community impacts, and environmental benefits. This program can fund a wide array of improvements including bicycle facilities and pedestrian facilities. Eligible projects must be detailed in an approved corridor-focused planning document. These projects must include aspects that benefit all modes of transportation using an array of strategies that can change travel behavior, dedicate right of way for bikes and transit, and reduce vehicle miles traveled.
Funds are programmed by the California Transportation Commission.
Funding Opportunities and Matrix
Alta Planning + Design, Inc Metropolitan Transportation Commission | 5 Office of Traffic Safety
Under the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, five percent of Section 405 funds are dedicated to addressing nonmotorized safety. These funds may be used for law enforcement training related to pedestrian and bicycle safety, enforcement campaigns, and public education and awareness campaigns.
Funds are programmed by the California Office of Traffic Safety.
Recreational Trails Program
The Recreational Trails Program helps provide recreational trials for both motorized and non-motorized trail use. Eligible products include trail maintenance and restoration, trailside and trailhead facilities, equipment for maintenance, new trail construction, and more.
Funds are programmed by the California Department of Parks and Recreation.
Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities Program
The Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities Program (AHSC) funds land-use, housing, transportation, and land preservation projects that support infill and compact development that reduces greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Projects must fall within one of three project area types: transit-oriented development, integrated connectivity project, or rural innovation project areas. Fundable activities include affordable housing developments, sustainable transportation infrastructure, transportation-related amenities, and program costs.
Funds are programmed by the Strategic Growth Council and implemented by the Department of Housing and Community Development.
Urban Greening Grants
Urban Greening Grants support the development of green infrastructure projects that reduce GHG emissions and provide multiple benefits. Projects must include one of three criteria, most relevantly: reduce commute vehicle miles traveled by constructing bicycle paths, bicycle lanes or pedestrian facilities that provide safe routes for travel between residences, workplaces, commercial centers, and schools. Eligible projects include green streets and alleyways and non-motorized urban trails that provide safe routes for travel between residences, workplaces, commercial centers, and schools.
Funds are programmed by the California Natural Resources Agency.
Statewide Park Program (SPP)
The Statewide Park Program solicits competitive grants to fund new parks and recreation opportunities in critically underserved communities across California. Funds can be used to create and expand/renovate existing parks. All projects must include at least one “recreation feature” which includes non-motorized trails.
No match is required.
Funds are programmed by the California Department of Parks and Recreation.
Funding Opportunities and Matrix
Alta Planning + Design, Inc Metropolitan Transportation Commission | 6 RAISE Grants
The Rebuilding America Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity program supports projects that improve transportation system safety, improve accessibility, and improve sustainability. Eligible projects must have quantifiable environmental benefits, serve disadvantaged communities, and address equity concerns in the project’s design. Eligible projects range between $5 million and $25 million. RAISE grants can fund both planning and capital projects. A 20% local match is required except in rural areas.
Funds are programmed by the United States Department of Transportation.
Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (CMAQ) Program CMAQ funding supports projects that reduce congestion and help jurisdictions meet National Ambient Air Quality Standards for ozone, carbon monoxide, or particulate matter. Projects must be included in the local MPO’s transportation improvement plan.
Funds are programmed by Caltrans and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission.
Surface Transportation Block Grants
These grants are used to maintain and improve the performance on any federal-aid highway, bridges, and tunnel projects on any public road, pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, and transit capital projects.
Additional Transportation Alternatives set aside funds for active transportation, and active transportation access to transit improvements are also available.
Funds are programmed by Caltrans and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission.
Funding Opportunities and Matrix
Alta Planning + Design, Inc Metropolitan Transportation Commission | 7 Other State Funds
Senate Bill 1: Local Partnership Program
This program provides local and regional agencies that have passed sales tax measures, developer fees or other transportation-imposed fees to fund road maintenance and rehabilitation, sound walls, and other transportation improvement projects. Jurisdictions with these taxes or fees are then eligible for a formulaic annual distribution of no less than $100,000. These jurisdictions are also eligible for a competitive grant program. Local Partnership Program funds can be used for a wide variety of transportation purposes including roadway rehabilitation and construction, transit capital and infrastructure, bicycle and pedestrian improvements, and green infrastructure.
Funds are programmed by California Transportation Commission.
Senate Bill 1: Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Program Senate Bill 1 created the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Program (RMRP) to address deferred maintenance on state highways and local road systems. Program funds can be spent on both design and construction efforts. On-street active transportation-related maintenance projects are eligible if program maintenance and other thresholds are met. Funds are allocated to eligible jurisdictions.

Bruce ‐ TRAC Email
TRAC, the Trails for Richmond Action Committee, recently learned of the Bicycle and Pedestrian Action Plan via Lina Velasco’s October 5 email in relation to realignment of the Bay Trail between Hensley Street and Gertrude Avenue. No one from Alta Planning had contacted us with an opportunity to provide early input, so our comments are fundamental, as well as detailed. The October draft does not contain realignment of the Bay Trail between Hensley Street and Gertrude Avenue based upon the information provided to you. We would appreciate the opportunity to review the language and exhibits to be added for this new Bay Trail realignment.
The overall structure of the draft Plan and its exhibits overlooks Richmond’s backbone of multi‐use trails for use by both pedestrians and bicyclists for transportation and recreation. Richmond has about 30 miles of Class I two‐way, multi‐use San Francisco Bay Trail and another 2‐ 1/2 miles of multi‐use Class I Richmond Greenway. Taken together the Bay Trail and Greenway represent the most popular and heavily used walking, running and cycling venues in the City of Richmond. However, they are ignored by draft Plan’s dichotomous approach of separating the plan into bicycle facilities & projects vs. pedestrian facilities & projects. The plan should be revised to explicitly recognize and address Class I multi‐use trails. For example, the report should recommend High Priority Multi‐use Trail Projects. Class I multi‐use Class I trails should be added to the maps, which currently show only bikeways and refer to bicycle “Class I Shared‐Use Path”. Bay Trail Class I trails are designed and operated for use by both peds and cyclists. They are not bicycle “paths” which, by the way, peds are allowed to use. Richmond’s multi‐ use trails include the regional San Francisco Bay Trail, Marina Bay Trail, Ferry Point Loop Trail & Shipyard 3 Trail, Wildcat Marsh & Landfill Loop Trail, etc. These typically comprise a 10‐foot paved surface with 2‐foot wide shoulders ofter preferred by those walking and jogging.
They are not “paths”, as in a little garden path.
Bruce ‐ TRAC Email
The Plan should include all of the planned multi‐use trails included in the Transportation Element of the Richmond General Plan. As examples, the draft Plan doesn’t include trails planned on the south side of San Pablo Creek between the Landfill Loop Trail and Fred Jackson Way or the trail between the South 51st Street Bay Trail spur and the existing multi‐use trail on the north side of Meeker Tidal Creek leading to Regatta Blvd. as shown by the attached markup of General Plan Map 4.1.
More detailed comments are being added via the project’s interactive website.
Bruce ‐ TRAC Email
Further to the email below, the draft report contains Bicycle Design Guidelines, but not the attached Bay Trail Design Guidelines and Toolkit for design of trails to be shared by pedestrians and cyclists. The report is skewed toward design of Class I trails for cyclists with those walking and jogging considered to be a secondary, tolerated use of “bicycle paths”.

Bates City Council 1st Reading ‐ Notes
Receives complaints from the public regarding crime, bike lanes and barrett avenue; how do you justify implementing bike lanes if there's not many people using bikes? Justify the need for this.
Mayor Butt City Council 1st Reading ‐ Notes
Cutting Blvd gets a lot of use by biccyclists; Ferry to Bridge facilities are great and impressive; issue with sidewalks include: difficulty for people with mobility impairments, city council directed staff for plan to maintain sidewalks June of 2017 and there hasn't been action regarding this
Councilmember
McLaughlin City Council 1st Reading ‐ Notes Coordinate more clear ly with the Local Roadway Safety Plan and the upcoming Public Works Director should be involved in this Philip Rosenthal City Council 1st Reading ‐ Notes Disagrees with the extensive public outreach and not sufficient time to review; Cutting Blvd is a big issue with gridlock Jim Hanson City Council 1st Reading ‐ Notes
San Pablo Avenue is part of the high‐injury network and it is not reflected as a high priority project in the draft BPAP, this corridor affects the whole city
Mayor Butt Email
This month is National Pedestrian Safety Month. Pedestrians typically walk on sidewalks, but in Richmond, sidewalks often have hazards such as cracks, uplifts or overhanging vegetation that make them difficult to navigate or even dangerous. The City of Richmond settles claims annually for people who trip and fall due to damaged sidewalks. Despite direction by the City Council in 2017, the City has yet to prepare a sidewalk inspection and maintenance plan and policy. See “Richmond, California, Sidewalks and Street Edges.” Even more dangerous than damaged sidewalks are sidewalks that are blocked by parked cars. Apparently, many people do not understand or even care that sidewalks are for walking. A lot of people believe they are for parking cars. See “Cars on Richmond Sidewalks Present Obstacles for Residents; So Do parking Fines.”
Vehicles blocking sidewalks violate state law and local ordinances, yet enforcement is almost non‐existent due to staffing shortages and low priority . Vehicles blocking sidewalks are particularly dangerous for young children who are walking to school, parents pushing baby strollers, disabled people in wheelchairs or walkers, and the elderly, all of whom are routinely forced into the street to navigate their neighborhoods.
Take a look at this this video I made of a dad pushing a stroller having to detour into a busy street to avoid two cars totally blocking the sidewalk.
I have been taking photos and sending them to RPD for years, but the problem doesn’t seem to be improving. Below are some typical examples:

Hi there,
I'm reviewing the plan and I don't see any mention of San Pablo Ave. Are there any plans to add bike lanes there? I think that would be a huge quality of life improvement for everyone who lives near this very busy street.
Thanks!

We need SAFE pedestrian crossing lanes on San Pablo and McBryde, Barrett and Solana. This is a CHEAP FIX! Why can't it happen without a lot of red tape?

Hello,
I own and operate Curious Explorers Academy, a preschool located at 200 Broadway.
I was introduced to Travel Safe Richmond through a parent who came to tour our preschool.
We are on the surface streets that connect the Richmond Greenway Trail to itself. The suggested route to connect the trail from Pullman Portal to Dirt World is to go up Broadway to Bissell then back down 23rd. We should have a safe way to get from the greenway back to the greenway.
We are very interested in getting involved to improve the safety on Broadway, more specifically the intersection of Bissell Ave and Broadway. Many of our students and teachers bike or walk to school. While there is a 2‐way stop sign on Bissell Ave, there are no stop signs on Broadway which leads to a lot of speeding traffic. Very often cars go by at 50+mph.
Additionally, the turn from Bissell Ave onto Broadway is also a "blind" turn, it is very difficult for cars to safely make a left turn onto Broadway and there are regularly near collisions with both cars and bikes. Personally I have witnessed 2 vehicle collisions at that intersection in the past 6 months. It would be wonderful to have a 4‐way stop sign or roundabout to help the flow of traffic.
Please let me know if there is another way we can get involved to improve the safety of this corridor for our community.
Susan Wehrle website Form
I saw a map of plans to improve biking in Richmond on McBryde to Wildcat Park. We are a biking family in the neighborhood and DO HOPE this can come to fruition. I want to be safe on my bike, I want everyone to have this opportunity. Also, our family has ADA needs, and so many curbs in our ‘hood are not compliant. Let’s make Richmond safer for all, including children, families out for a walk, bike riders, wheelchair users, people with dogs, and others. Car drivers would be safer if they slowed down as well. Traffic calming for better health for all!
Michael Peritz website Form
Just became aware of the project (11/8/22); forgive ignorance; will go deeper but have questions/concerns:
What can be done to improve safety for bikes and pedestrians along the trails we already have? There are many problems that exist under BART between Macdonald and EC Plaza that do not exist from there southward. How do we encourage people and make them feel more comfortable using the Baxter Creek east/west trail to the Bay? How do we convince Marinites who depend on Eastbay labor to build safe bicycle infrastructure starting at their end of the San Rafael Bridge? How do we convince them to envision the future and keep the bike lane on the bridge? What San Pablo Avenue improvements/accommodations for bike riders and pedestrians will be included for the growing popularity of electric bikes, trikes, carts, etc.?
Where are there models/best practices/ designs worldwide where bikes, scooters, skateboards, pedestrians, etc. outnumber cars and trucks?
Public Comments on BPAP
Butler W Baylis
The sidewalk along the Garrard side of the Plunge that is now a bicycle path + a sidewalk I feel needs some signage on the sidewalk itself to alert pedestrians that cycles will be legally on the sidewalk .
RNCC Email from staff
Comments were around the RNCC’s request that BPAP have outreach tailored to the business community. We’d like to discuss adding that component with any remaining funding.

San Pablo Ave. is a High Injury street but there are no corresponding high priority pedestrian safety improvements in the pedestrian safety prioritization listing (Table 10)
Jim Hanson PDF ‐ Feedback & Comments Table 10 seems like it shoul d be labeled as as "Pedestrian Projects" instead of bicycle projects.
Jim Hanson PDF ‐ Feedback & Comments
There are bike "spot" projects show in purple dots on the map that don't have numbers associated with them, and some that are above the ending #105 project in this table. I'd like to know what these proposed projects are. Thank you.
Jim Hanson PDF ‐ Feedback & Comments
Redo, There are spot projects in East Richmond that aren't numbered on the map that therefore are likely not in this table, and also projects that are numbered higher than the ending #105 in this table, thus don't yet show up either.

McBryde from San Pablo Ave. to Alvarado Park is a High Priority bicycle (and pedestrian) improvements. Richmond residents from across the city use this street to get to this popular park that the Local Road Safety Plan shows is currently also a high injury area. Please include McBryde as a high priority bicycle safety improvement area.
Jim Hanson PDF ‐ Feedback & Comments
Solano is both a fast and busy street with a very steep section and with cars parked along the curb. This can be a difficult street for bicycling, even with a proposed IIB bike lane. Neighbors and bicyclists would need to be consulted on using this street as a major bike route.
Jim Hanson PDF ‐ Feedback & Comments
Clinton has steep sections, and a blind corner at the twist in the road halfway up at Yuba. This may be a decent option to get to Arlington, but the blind twist in the road is a problem going up hill if there is a vehicle coming up from behind.

Because people from all Richmond neighborhoods travel to commercial corridors also, high injury areas and accompanying priority pedestrian safety projects need to go beyond the neighborhood level to where people shop, too. Residents from all neighborhoods have occasion to walk and ride commercial services on San Pablo Avenue. Despite its recognition as a High Injury area, this report currently lacks any high priority pedestrian safety projects along San Pablo Avenue. Please add a table the ranks all projects on their strictly on their safety value to all residents traveling across the city. Please include needed high priority safety projects on San Pablo Avenue.

Less expensive measures, such as striping that is estimated to cost $4k can and should be considered first at numerous dangerous intersections. More expensive $400k “islands” etc. that take a lot of time to design, bid, and construct. Please ADD a second table that is ranked by least expensive high priority pedestrian projects to most expensive high priority ones.

Pedestrian safety improvement needed at the at San Pablo and McBryde Intersection. This is a retail corridor and a recognized High Injury street with residents from across Richmond parking and crossing busy San Pablo. The pedestrian crossing lines are badly eroded. A higher level pedestrian safety crossing measure is needed here.

16th St. between Macdonald Ave and the Richmond Greenway is a designated Bike Boulevard w/ accompanying signage & lane markings, per the Richmond Wellness Trail Vision.
Trevor Rice PDF ‐ Feedback
9th St. from Nevin to the Richmond Greenway is envisioned as a Bicycle Boulevard in the Richmond Wellness Trail Vision Plan. Bike lanes may be an improvement but should be checked to ensure the other pedestrian safety and road calming measures envisioned in the plan aren't excluded due to width needed for bike lanes.

I was appalled that this major presentation was breezed over in ten minutes at 11:15 at the end of a five hour meeting, Please provide a list of neighborhood council meetings, this i sthe first many of us have heard of this.
This website, with its complicated and illegible maps, which can't be expanded to show our neighborhoods, are not helpful in gaining feedback from communities who are aware of their own specific needs and dangers.
If using an interactive website requires a complicated tutorial and is glitchy, how can you consider this open and public feedback. It seems as though only a few people, all with a slant toward bike lanes at any cost, have figured this out.
Until mid‐October, we couldn't even find this plan posted on this website.
A project of this nature deserves an earnest outreach by mail notification by the city and posting on social media.
The taxpayers deserve to help design this plan based on their knowledge of issues in their own neighborhoods, Philip Rosenthal PDF ‐ Feedback This map can't be expanded enough for us to comment on our neighborhood needs and feedback.

Wait... Whaaa? First, Tewksbury already has a separated and dedicated bike lane. Second, are you building through the railroad tracks? Because your line as plotted is going through buildings. Third, if you're suggesting a dedicated bike lane down Railroad, you're destroying what little parking is available for visitors and customers to the Point. So you know where they'll park? In front of our homes, where we already don't have enough space for people who live here. Bicycles have zero problem getting to Tewksbury via Park Place, and they go by businesses who need their custom. Please don't fix what isn't broken (or break more what is already going to be pretty jacked up by the Bicycle Coalition plans).

Riding bikes on busy streets like Macdonald or Barret always feel less safe than when there is a bike path on a wide residential street like Clinton. I don't agree with making the bike paths on Macdonald a priority over other ones.

The overall structure of the draft Plan and its exhibits overlooks Richmond’s backbone of multi‐use trails for use by both pedestrians and bicyclists for transportation and recreation. Richmond has about 30 miles of Class I two‐way, multi‐use San Francisco Bay Trail and another 2‐ 1/2 miles of multi‐use Class I Richmond Greenway. Taken together the Bay Trail and Greenway represent the most popular and heavily used walking, running and cycling venues in the City of Richmond. However, they are ignored by draft Plan’s dichotomous approach of separating the plan into bicycle facilities & projects vs. pedestrian facilities & projects. The plan should be revised to explicitly recognize and address Class I multi‐use trails.

The report should recommend Priority Multi‐use Trail Projects. Class I multi‐use Class I trails should be added to the maps, which currently show only bikeways and refer to bicycle “Class I Shared‐Use Path”. Bay Trail Class I trails are designed, built and operated for use by both peds and cyclists. They are not bicycle “paths” which, by the way, peds are allowed to use.

The pedestrian walkway crossing San Pablo Ave at San Pablo Ave & Barrett, Richmond is a very busy one. It needs to be updated because it is in poor condition. Many users are either very young or seniors or the the seemingly inattentive unhoused. These citizens are more subject to stumbling and/or falling. The present state of the walkway presents a hazard.

Less expensive measures, such as striping that is estimated to cost $4k can and should be considered first at numerous dangerous intersections. More expensive $400k “islands” etc. that take a lot of time to design, bid, and construct.

A separate bike facility on Pierce St. is excellent and matches well with needs identified just over the border in Albany where there's a concentrated population in condo towers. Not addressed are barriers to getting from Pierces Street and the Pacific East Mall area to BART, San Pablo, and points East and SE of Albany Hill. Adams is a regional bike route, linking north to Carlson and south via Jackson through UC Village and on to the 9th Street Bekerkley Bikeway.
A bike/ped bridge to Adams Street in Albany across Cerrito Creek and an improved trail along Cerrito Creek could help a lot. Crossing Cerrito Creek at Santa Clara or Yosemite and connecting to Adams could provide a calmer, all‐ages and abilities connection, especially if connected to Carlson via an improved intersection at Lassen. This would provide an alternative for bikes and peds away from the congested San Pablo/Carlson intersection and hard Carlson turn. + encourage bikes off the sidewalk at the SP/C intersection.

I completely agree with Jim's comment. This plan seems not to recognize the significance of San Pablo Avenue as a major cycling and pedestrian corridor. I frequently walk from my home on Key Blvd. to businesses on or across San Pablo Avenue. SAFER, well planned, well lit and marked intersections, are desperately needed all along San Pablo Avenue.
Shelley Trask PDF ‐ Comment
Agree. It is very dangerous to cross San Pablo Ave on foot, particularly at the intersection of San Pablo & Nevin, to get to the Transbay bus station. Cars do not stop for pedestrians at all there.
Shelley Trask PDF ‐ Comment
In addition to San Pablo, Key Blvd is a major bicycle and car thoroughfare. The addition of stop signs at Barrett and MacDonald were very helpful, but we are experiencing an increase in donuts and sideshows at the corner of Key & Barrett, as well as people blowing through the stops. Neighbors are asking for a traffic circle to deter this behavior. It would be amazing to get speed bumps installed. I am often unable to cross the street due to heavy traffic during commute hours.

I agree and would like to note that there are no speed limit signs along Solano Ave from Amador through 38th. Frequent speeding along Solano Ave makes this stretch particularly dangerous and unfriendly to cyclists and pedestrians.

Business Community
meeting (RCOC/COI) During meeting
Key Takeaway: Continue the public engagement process during implementation of capital improvement projects with the business community and the community who are impacted by the construction (I.e. those within 300 feet of the location). Connect with other jurisdictions and regionally for proposed areas of work that are near city jurisdiction lines.

STATEMENT OF THE

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE a sole-source contract with PlanetBids, Inc. to provide an online vendor registration and bid
Management System (BidsOnline), at an amount not to
exceed $18,675 per year, for a period of three years with one two-year option to extend at the same cost and
terms per year – Finance (Antonio Banuelos 510-620-
6741/Ofelia Alvarez 510-620-6699).
AGENDA
REPORT
February 7, 2023
DISCUSSION:
The PlanetBids, Inc. BidsOnline system is an on-line vendor registration and bid management system that allows vendors to “self-register” to receive requests for quotes, requests for proposals, and to submit bids. The BidsOnline system also allows Purchasing and other City departments to electronically post request for proposals and receive bids. In 2006, City staff obtained proposals from three vendors who provided vendor registration and bid management systems. PlanetBids was recommended for approval because it met the City’s technical requirements and was the lowest priced solution.
Since its inception, over 10,500 vendors have registered in the database and City staff has posted over 1,000 solicitations. By posting the solicitations online, the City reaches a greater number of vendors/suppliers and receives better pricing. Also, the City saves time and money by not printing and mailing out the solicitations. The solicitations are posted online and vendors download and print the solicitation, plans, and specifications at their office. Vendors also submit bids and proposals electronically.
The City also added the PlanetBids, Inc. Emergency Operations Module (EO), which provides the following capabilities:
Identifies emergency suppliers from the master database; Categorizes potential emergency purchases (i.e. materials, services, heavy equipment, etc.);
Completes emergency vendor detail form;
Works compatibly with current vendor registration;
Provides reports by main EO categories, sub-categories, and additional description;
Schedules automatic vendor notification emails to maintain up-to-date emergency records; and
Schedules emergency vendor summary reports on periodic basis (i.e. weekly, monthly, and quarterly).
The proposed yearly price stems from negotiations between the City and PlanetBids in 2018. The City negotiated a 16 percent (16%) discount with yearly savings totaling $3,650. The proposed amount will be honored through the duration of this contract. The discounted total offered to the City is $18,675 per year.
The Finance Department recommends the approval to renew a three-year contract with one, two- year option to extend with PlanetBids, Inc. to provide an online vendor registration and bid Management System (BidsOnline) at an amount not to exceed $18,675 per year.

Liabilities subject to the duties to defend and indemnify include, without limitation, any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, and judgments; associated investigation and administrative expenses; defense costs, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees; court costs; and costs of alternative dispute resolution. Contractor’s obligation to
General Conditions/EJ/TE 01-19-11 7 of 13
indemnify applies unless it is finally adjudicated that the liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of an indemnified party.

An allegation or determination that persons other than Contractor are responsible for the claim does not relieve Contractor from its separate and distinct obligation to defend under this Section 15. The obligation to defend extends through final judgment, including exhaustion of any appeals. The defense obligation includes an obligation to provide independent counsel if Contractor asserts that liability is caused in whole, or in part, by the negligence or willful misconduct of an indemnified party. (d) The review, acceptance or approval of the Contractor’s work or work product by any indemnified party shall not affect, relieve or reduce the Contractor’s indemnification or defense obligations. This Section 15 survives completion of the services or the termination of this Contract.
The provisions of this Section 15 are not limited by, and do not affect, the provisions of this Contract relating to insurance.
