Sidewalk

Yield markings at
pedestrian crossing
Pedestrian islands
make crossings safer
Queueing area for
bicyclists
Turning vehicles
have enough space
to stop for people
walking and biking
Curb radius slows
down turning
vehicles
Bicyclists make twostage left turns
Signal Considerations:
• Use of bike signal
requires protected
phase
• If no space for RT
lane, other options
include using
Leading Ped/Bike
Interval with no
right turn on red
and allowing a
permissive
through/ right turn
phase
• Modified R10-15B
Turning Vehicles
Yield to Peds and
Bikes Protected right turn
for bicyclists
East Bay Greenway Near Term Phase I: E. 14th Street/Mission Boulevard 10 Bus Stop Types – Floating Bus Stops
Bikeway fully separated from
sidewalk and bus island, limiting
conflict points and bus
leapfrogging.
Bicyclists yield/stop when
buses board / alight
Railing protection at grade
separation
Passenger Waiting Area
Stop Amenities
Sidewalk
Notes:
1. Where the context allows, it may be
possible to bend the bikeway into the
existing sidewalk to make space for a full
bus island.
2. Bike lane can be raised or at street level
depending on space and context.
3. Sidewalk may be narrowed to create space
for bikeway to continue through stop.
