Consultants to San Mateo County have created a proposal one strech of the Santa Cruz/Alameda Corridor. This proposal does not address the northern segment of Santa Cruz Ave above the “Y”.
For that southern most section of Santa Cruz Ave (South of Y), this proposal has several changes:
- Eliminates the dangerous 3rd NB lane at the Y (uses normal lane for that traffic)
- Reduces each direction to a single lane of traffic
- Center turn/merge lane is retained
- Parking on the east side (northbound) is move away from curb to allow room for inner protected bike lane
- Bike lanes are added both directions
- both bike lanes are next to curb
For Alameda de las Pulgas, this proposal has several changes:
- Reduces each direction to a single lane of traffic
- Creates a Center turn/merge lane
- Parking on both sides is move away from curb to allow room for an inner bike lane
- Inside Bike lanes are added both directions
- both bike lanes are next to curb
Note: This is not a proposal that was created by our community SAFE group, nor is it recommended by SAFE. This proposal is not the recommendation of the Cycling commision. It is a propsal that County is presenting in conjunction with their consultants.
