Retain the bicycle facility as Class 3 <br />bike sharrow. Implement pedestrian crossing enhancements at most intersections. <br />Alternative 2: Retain two travel lanes in each direction. Add a dedicated bicycle facility. Remove on- <br />street parking. Implement pedestrian crossing enhancements at most intersections. <br />Alternative 3: Reallocate one travel lane in each direction and add a center-turning lane. Add a <br />dedicated bike facility. Retain on-street parking. Implement pedestrian crossing enhancements at <br />most intersections. <br />All three alternatives presented in round one of outreach implement the Daylighting Law, pedestrian <br />crossing and ADA curb improvements, and pavement overlay. <br />Round Two of Outreach <br />A second round of outreach in October and November 2025 included an in-person community <br />meeting on October 8, 2025, a survey that was open until late November, a project presentation at <br />the Mount Carmel Neighborhood Association meeting, and a focused meeting with Orion School’s <br />Traffic Safety Committee to discuss the design concepts. The bi-lingual meeting notice was mailed to <br />about 2,400 properties within one block of the project corridor and advertised through neighborhood <br />associations. About 70 community members attended this in-person meeting. Based on community <br />feedback from the first round of outreach and emergency responder needs, Alternative 2 was <br />eliminated from the conceptual design process because it included removal of on-street parking along <br />the corridor and revised Alternatives 1 and 3 were presented as Alternatives A and B. <br />Alternative A: Add HAWK signals/pedestrian beacons at some intersections. The bicycle facility <br />will remain as Class 3 sharrow with signs along the corridor. <br />Alternative B: Add Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB) or HAWK signals at some <br />intersections. Between Farm Hill Boulevard and Iris Street, remove one travel lane in each <br />direction, add center turning lanes, and add either Class 2 bike lane or Class 4 protected bikeway. <br />Add Class 3 sharrow signs to Iris Street to the north and south for bicyclists who divert to this side <br />street for a calmer bicycle ride. The project corridor from Iris Street/Hudson Street to El Camino <br />Real will retain two travel lanes in each direction and bicycle sharrow signs. <br />Both alternatives in round two implement the Daylighting Law, pedestrian crossing and ADA curb <br />improvements, and pavement overlay. Both include a muti-use path or two-way cycle track on the <br />north side of Jefferson Street between Avenue del Ora and Myrtle Street by Orion Alternative School <br />and a new traffic signal at Valota Street intersection. <br />The City received 427 survey responses with 317 responses (74 percent) supporting Alternative B, 88 <br />responses (21 percent) supporting Alternative A, and 22 responses (5 percent) supporting neither <br />11.B. - Page 5 of 17 <br />182
