concepts
POTENTIAL SOLUTIONS:
DIFFERENT TYPES OF BIKE LANES
• Class I – Shared-Use or Multi-use
trails/paths, fully separated facilities
for pedestrians and bicyclists
• Class IV – Separated or protected
bike lanes/cycle tracks - exclusive
use by bicycles (no pedestrians).
There can be horizontal or vertical
separation such as flexible posts,
on-street parking, planters, grade
separation
Class I – Bike Path (Source: Have your Say Monterey, 2021) Class IV – Separated Bikeway (Source: Have your Say Monterey, 2021) JUNIPERO SERRA BOULEVARD AND WESTBOROUGH BOULEVARD BIKEWAY FEASIBILITY STUDY - AUGUST 14, 2024 15
