INTERSECTIONS / CORNERS
Sweeping corners and long
crossing distances for sidewalk to
cross. These intersection corner
designs are based on old design
standards.
CANOPY TREES
Intermittent matures trees
spread along the corridor
provide shade where
present. Most trees
are on private property
setback from roadway
and do not provide shade
for the sidewalk.
RESIDENTIAL
CONTEXT
The majority of the
Pruneridge corridor is
lined with single-family
homes that define
this area’s residential
character.
PARKING LANES
Curbside parallel
parking is present
along the majority of
the corridor.
Existing Conditions
4 Lanes - Parking on Both Sides
• 12’ Traffic Lanes

INTERSECTION APPROACH
CONSIDERATIONS:
• Green-backed bike symbol at
intersection approach for visibility
• Bulb-outs, option for curb extensions
or short-term quick-build painted
option
• Parking is restricted at corners with
bollards and bike lanes - improved
sight lines is a co-benefit
• Leading pedestrian phase and bike
phase or indication
• Add vertical barrier to further protect
bicyclists from right turn movements. If
installed, vehicles are restricted from
turning right on red.
PARKING LANE
retains parking areas on
one side of the corridor.
BUFFERED BIKE LANES
on both sides of the
corridor are provided with
striped buffers, similar to

Hybrid Concept 04
Corridor Map
• This concept was produced in response to concerns we heard about the vehicle travel time delay possible with Concept 2 and Concept 3. • This concept transitions the roadway reconfiguration concepts (Concept 2 and Concept 3) at the approach to the county owned intersections of San Tomas and Saratoga to reduce traffic delay.
• Concept 4 would be pared with either Concept 2 or Concept 3.

EXAMPLE OF INTERSECTION
More advanced bicycle protection may be
possible in the future, but will require additional
coordination with the County. The example
shown here is for intersection such as San
Tomas, a County owned roadway
