The <br />Corridor Plan was the result of a 2% year process entailing a citizen advisory group, stakeholder interviews, <br />community -wide workshops, pop-up booths at community events, direct in-person outreach to Corridor <br />businesses, and numerous meetings with Caltrans, the Planning Commission, and other relevant groups, <br />committees, boards, and agencies. The Corridor Plan is a guiding document with recommended <br />implementation actions to be further analyzed and processed after plan adoption, which are organized <br />by timeframe. <br />One of the Corridor Plan's short-term implementation actions is streetscape redesign, including the <br />preparation of conceptual design drawings for a segment of the Corridor between Maple and Charter <br />streets. This effort is known as the EI Camino Real Bike & Ped Safety Improvement Study ("Safety <br />Improvement Study"). This study is funded through a Caltrans Sustainable Transportation Planning grant. <br />Redwood City was selected as one of two case studies for this grant based on high bicycle and pedestrian <br />City of Redwood City 1017 Middlefield Road, Redwood City, CA. 94063 Tel: 650-780-7000 www.redwoodcity.ore <br />150 <br />
