About the Plan
What is the Bicycle and Pedestrian
Master Plan Update?
The Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan is a focused update to the 2018 Plan that creates a 5-year work plan of projects and programs to support bicycling and walking in San Leandro.
What is a “focused update?”
The focused update reviews and updates the 2018 network with new prioritization and implementation strategies.
The community outreach and technical tasks are designed to build off existing work and finalize the update on a shorter schedule.
San Leandro adopted a Vision Zero policy and
Local Roadway Safety Plan in 2021.
Vision Zero aims to eliminate all traffic fatalities and severe injuries.
The focused update incorporates new
best practice guidelines.
