Summary Title: Bicycle Boulevard Concept Plan - Amarillo Ave-Moreno Ave,
Bryant St, Louis Rd-Montrose Ave and Ross
Title: Concept Plan Approval of the Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements
Along Amarillo Avenue, Bryant Street, East Meadow Drive, Montrose
Avenue, Moreno Avenue, Louis Road, Palo Alto Avenue, and Ross Road
From: City Manager
Lead Department: Planning and Community Environment
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Council: adopt a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
exemption for the Amarillo Avenue-Moreno Avenue, Bryant Street Update, Louis Road-
Montrose Avenue, and Ross Road Bicycle Boulevard Projects; approve the attached concept
plans for these four bicycle boulevard projects; and direct staff to move forward with the Final
Design phase for these four bicycle boulevards projects.
Executive Summary
The Bicycle + Pedestrian Transportation Plan (hereinafter “Plan”), adopted by Council in 2012,
identifies a network of bicycle boulevards throughout the city. This network includes the
Amarillo Avenue-Moreno Avenue, Bryant Street Update, Louis Road-Montrose Avenue, and
Ross Road Bicycle Boulevard Projects. As currently proposed, these four projects will:
Enhance the existing Bryant Street Bicycle Boulevard from Palo Alto Avenue to East
Meadow Drive, where it connects to the proposed Bryant Street Bicycle Boulevard
extension. This corridor provides a continuous bicycle route from Menlo Park to
Mountain View.
Construct the Ross Road Bicycle Boulevard from Garland Drive, which is just north of
Oregon Expressway, to Louis Road, where it will connect to the proposed Louis Road-
Montrose Avenue Bicycle Boulevard. The Ross Road Bicycle Boulevard provides a
second north-south on-street bikeway for Palo Alto residents.
Construct the Louis Road-Montrose Avenue Bicycle Boulevard from Middlefield Road to
the proposed Adobe Creek US 101 Overcrossing. A portion of this route was identified
in the Bicycle + Pedestrian Transportation Plan, but was expanded with additional
funding from Google. This route connects the proposed Adobe Creek US 101
City of Palo Alto Page 1
Overcrossing to the proposed Ross Road Bicycle Boulevard, providing a system of
connections within Palo Alto and, once the overcrossing is complete, to the San
Francisco Bay Trail and employment centers in the City of Mountain View.
Construct the Amarillo Avenue-Moreno Avenue Bicycle Boulevard from Middlefield
Road to West Bayshore Road. This route provides and east-west connection across Palo
Alto and enhances the system by connecting to the Ross Road Bicycle Boulevard.
This set of bicycle boulevards provides a significant step to advancing Palo Alto’s vision to
provide a system of neighborhood bicycle routes that provide continuous, low-stress on-street
bikeways with travel time and safety improvements to support healthy transportation. The
proposed improvements incorporate focused bicycle and pedestrian enhancements and traffic
calming measures to reduce motor vehicle speeds, as well as intersection modifications,
repaving, and improvements to arterial crossings to better serve a diversity of ages and
abilities.
The proposed improvements incorporate focused bicycle and pedestrian enhancements and
traffic calming measures to reduce motor vehicle speeds, as well as stop sign modifications,
repaving, and improvements to arterial crossings to better serve a diversity of ages and
abilities. The projects, as currently proposed, also incorporate many of the Safe Routes to
Schools improvements recently identified by Staff.
Funding currently exists for the Concept Plan Line and Environmental Assessment phases of
these projects. The approved Concept Plan Line will serve as the basis for establishing a
contract for the Final Design Phase, helping to determine the level of effort for a contract to
construct these routes. Detailed cost estimates for the Amarillo Avenue-Moreno Avenue,
Bryant Street Update, Louis Road-Montrose Avenue, and Ross Road Bicycle Boulevard Projects
will be developed as part of the Final Design phase of work. As part of the approval of the City’s
Infrastructure Plan, the City Council allocated $20.0 million towards Bicycle + Pedestrian Plan
implementation. Alta Planning + Design, Inc. is the lead consultant for this project.
Background
Bicycle & Pedestrian Transportation Plan 2012
The Bicycle & Pedestrian Transportation Plan was adopted by the City Council in July 2012. The
Plan includes a proposed bikeway network of off-street multi-use paths, bicycle boulevards,
bicycle lanes, and enhanced bikeway facilities. The plan has stated goals of increasing bicycle
traffic for local and work commute trips by 100% by 2020 by providing improved facilities along
the proposed bicycle network, which facilitates both north-south and east-west connectivity
throughout Palo Alto. A copy of the Proposed Bikeway Network is provided in Attachment A.
Implementation of the Plan started in 2013 with City Council authorization of up to $1.2M per
year over five years as part of the Capital Improvement Program (CIP). With this commitment of
funds, 18 projects are currently being studied and designed for implementation. Since award of
City of Palo Alto Page 2
consultant contracts in April 2014, bicycle network implementation has focused primarily on
bicycle boulevards and enhanced bikeways, although transportation staff has also been
coordinating with Public Works and Community Services staff to deliver transportation projects
through public works and parks contracts for street resurfacing and park improvements. Staff
has also been working to implement data-driven spot improvements in response to customer
requests, and seeks to ensure provide ongoing rehabilitation and maintenance of the bicycle
and pedestrian network and incorporation of green infrastructure and storm water treatment
where feasible. City staff recently provided City Council with an update on the bicycle and
pedestrian program at a Study Session on October 26, 2015.
Concept planning was initiated for these four corridors in 2014. Funding for concept plans was
provided by both the City of Palo Alto and Google, Inc., which requested that the City consider
bicycle boulevards in the southern part of Palo Alto where connections could be made to
Mountain View.
Bicycle Boulevard Purpose and Benefits
The City pioneered the creation of the first “bicycle boulevard” – turning Bryant Street north of
East Meadow Drive, a residential street, into a street that prioritized bicycle safety and
circulation in 1982. The Comprehensive Plan defines a bicycle boulevard as a “low volume
through-street where bicycles have priority over automobiles, conflicts between bicycles and
automobiles are minimized, and bicycle travel time is reduced by the removal of stop signs and
other impediments to bicycle travel. The removal of stop signs is especially important in Palo
Alto, due to the large number of stop signs on local and collector streets.”
Key characteristics that make bicycle boulevards attractive and safer for people who bicycle
are:
• Low traffic volumes
• Low vehicle speeds
• Discouragement of non-local motor vehicle traffic
• Free-flow travel for people on bicycles by assigning the right-of-way to the bicycle
boulevard at intersections wherever possible
• Traffic control to help bicycles cross major streets
One important feature of bicycle boulevards that greatly improves cycling efficiency is
reduction in the number of stop signs; this measure improves travel time and reduces fatigue.
Reducing cyclist fatigue increases the feasible length of a trip by bicycle, and is especially
important to people who are hauling trailers, carrying children, groceries, and so forth, thereby
encouraging more trips by bicycle.
Discussion
Approval of Concept Plan Lines is the first step in the design process for a project. A Concept
Plan Line identifies the type and approximate location of improvements but excludes focused
design details such as hardscape and landscape measures. The Concept Plan Line identifies the
City of Palo Alto Page 3
locations of civil improvements that influence the amount of review required for California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) compliance.
Development of a Concept Plan Line normally takes three to four community meetings to help
shape the location and types of improvements that each plan recommends. Due to the
challenges along the corridor, the Bryant Street Update Bicycle Boulevard Project was discussed
at seven public meetings throughout 2014 and 2015. Focused traffic data collection is also
included as part of the Concept Plan Line development and the results are shared with the
community as part of the community outreach process. Following approval of the Concept Plan
Line by the City Council, staff will utilize a civil design team to complete the environmental
assessment and more detailed design. An implementation plan will be developed as part of the
design phase.
Community Outreach
Community outreach and participation has been instrumental to concept plan development
since the initiation of the bicycle boulevard projects. The development of the Concept Plan
Lines included community meetings and other events that helped shape the location and types
of improvements that each plan recommends.
Specific meetings included (a) four community bike-alongs in April and May 2014, (b) farmers’
market outreach on California Avenue in April and May 2014, (c) four rounds of community
meetings in May-June 2014, October-November-December 2014, April-May 2015, and March
2016 and (d) presentations to the Palo Alto Pedestrian and Bicycle Advisory Committee (PABAC)
in September 2014, April 2015 and April 2016. The meetings were advertised through the
mailing of notification cards to all property owners and residents within one block of the
corridors, postings on the city website, e-mail notifications to the neighborhood leaders and
bicycle boulevard program e-mail list, and posts to social media. Sample outreach materials and
key comments received are enclosed as Attachment B. A public meeting was held on March 29,
2016 at the Ohlone Elementary School to review the final drafts of the Concept Plan Lines for
these four corridors. Sixty-one citizens attended the meeting and provided written comments,
which are summarized and scanned in Attachment G. The Concept Plan Lines for these four
corridors were presented to the Planning and Transportation Commission for review and
comment on April 13, 2016. This staff report was prepared before that meeting.
Traffic Analysis
Traffic data collection for the Amarillo Avenue-Moreno Avenue, Bryant Street Update, Louis
Road-Montrose Avenue, and Ross Road Bicycle Boulevard Projects occurred in May 2014, using
video cameras to track bicycle and pedestrian demand and mechanical tube counters to collect
automobile speed and volume data. Highlights of the traffic counts and speed data are shown
in Table 1 below. The optimal conditions for a successful bicycle boulevard are <30 MPH or
<3,000 ADT (average daily traffic). All of the corridors meet the criteria for a successful bicycle
boulevard.

In February 2016, additional analysis was conducted to evaluate the traffic impacts of changing
intersection controls, where proposed by this project. As currently proposed, a total of 16
intersections will have their intersection control changed. Nine intersections will be changed
from an all-way stop to a roundabout, two from an all-way stop to a two-way stop; two from a
two-way stop to an all-way stop, and one each from a two-way stop to a roundabout, from a
three-way stop to one-way stop, and from traffic circle to a roundabout.
Intersections were analyzed using the Synchro software to determine intersection, motor
vehicle level of service (LOS). While an LOS analysis will no longer be required as part CEQA, it
does provide a metric to understand if the extent of any impact on motor vehicle movements in
these corridors. The results of the LOS calculations show that under project conditions, all of
the study intersections would still operate with delays corresponding to LOS A or B. With the
proposed changes in traffic controls, most of the study intersection would experience less delay
than existing conditions. The delays at the following three intersections would be increased
slightly with the traffic control converted from all-way stop to two-way stop:
Ross Road and Clara Drive - all-way stop to two-way stop
Ross Road and Ames Avenue – all-way stop to two-way stop
Ross Road and Mayview Avenue - three-way stop to one-way stop
Future condition LOS results show that all the study intersections, except one, would still
operate with delays corresponding to LOS B or better with future traffic volumes. Only one
intersection operates at LOS C: Ross Road and Ames Avenue in the PM peak. The complete
traffic analysis report is provided as Attachment C.
Parking
The Amarillo Avenue-Moreno Avenue, Bryant Street Update, Louis Road-Montrose Avenue, and
Ross Road Bicycle Boulevard Projects were planned to optimize right-of-way for all roadway
users and minimize the impact on available on-street parking. To evaluate the potential impact
City of Palo Alto Page 5
of parking removal on local residents, following the implementation of the proposed projects, a
parking occupancy study was conducted. Although implementation of the projects will remove
266 on-street parking spaces (14 percent of the total 1,865 parking spaces along the project
corridors), the study found that on average only 570 (31% of available parking spaces) of these
parking spaces are typically used at any given time. Table 2 summarizes current parking
utilization and the proposed changes to parking.

Louis Road-Montrose Avenue 370 22 27% 28%
Ross Road 580 85 21% 25%
Total 1,865 266 31% 36%
Reallocating a portion of these unused parking spaces for improved bicycle boulevard
infrastructure will support the City’s goals of reducing motor vehicle speeds in residential areas,
improving bicyclist safety, and encouraging more residents to bicycle. At the corridor level,
there is sufficient capacity to absorb these changes and the vast majority of residents and
visitors will not recognize a parking impact. A few specific blocks, however, may not have
availability to meet current parking demand, requiring residents and visitors to seek parking
one block from their desired destination. These impacted blocks are discussed below.
Bryant Street and Everett Avenue: Removing eight parking spaces at this intersection
means demand will surpass availability by three spaces, however eight spaces will
typically be available one block away.
Bryant Street east side (Poe Street to Hawthorne Avenue): Parking availability will not
change, however parking utilization is already high on this block. Eleven spaces will be
available across the street and 13 available one block away on Poe Street.
Bryant Street (Channing Avenue to Addison Avenue): Removing four spaces along this
block means parking need will be nearing capacity, however eight spaces will typically
be available one block away.
Ross Road west side (Stern Avenue to Allen Court - south side): Removing six spaces
along this block means parking need will slightly surpass capacity by one space, however
43 spaces should typically be available one block away.
East Meadow Drive north side (Fabian Way to Paloma Street): Parking availability will
not change, however parking utilization is already high on this block. Twenty-one spaces
will typically be available one block away.
Amarillo Avenue south side (Louis Road to Ohlone Elementary driveway): Removing
nine spaces along this block means demand will surpass availability by three cars.
Twenty-eight spaces will typically be available one block away.
Amarillo Avenue north side (West Bayshore Road and North Tanland Drive): Removing
City of Palo Alto Page 6
five spaces along this block means demand will surpass availability by three cars. Five
spaces will typically be available one block away.
Detailed information about parking changes by street segment are provided in Attachment D.
Amarillo Avenue-Moreno Avenue Bicycle Boulevard Project by Segment:
The following is a summary of the Amarillo Avenue-Moreno Avenue Bicycle Boulevard Project.

bicyclists to the new bicycle boulevard on Moreno Avenue and will enhance pedestrian
connectivity. A bicycle boulevard pavement legend will be added near every intersection along
this corridor. Bicycle boulevard wayfinding signs will help bicyclists navigate to destinations and
identify the bicycle boulevard route to all roadway users.
Existing speed humps near Middlefield Road and Coastland Drive will be replaced with a slotted
speed hump to reduce motorist speeds while maintaining a level path of travel for bicyclists and
fire trucks. Crosswalk markings, stop signs, and advance stop bars at side streets will enhance
walking and assign right-of-way to the bicycle boulevard. Side streets will also have “cross
traffic does not stop” signs added.
A mini roundabout at Ross Road will improve traffic flow, reduce motorist speeds, and improve
the corridor aesthetic by providing additional landscaping. High visibility crosswalk markings will
enhance walkability and raised diverter medians will improve roundabout operations and
create pedestrian refuges. A slotted speed hump near Fielding Drive will reduce motorist
speeds while maintaining a level path of travel for bicyclists and fire trucks.
Louis Road from Moreno Avenue to Amarillo Avenue
Bicycle boulevard wayfinding signs will help bicyclists navigate to destinations and identify the
bicycle boulevard route to all roadway users.
The two offset intersections at Moreno Avenue and at Fielding Drive/Amarillo Avenue will
become raised intersections to reduce vehicle speeds and increase visibility of pedestrians and
bicyclists. Stop controls will be provided on all approaches of each raised intersection to reduce
conflicts between motorists and bicyclists. A five foot wide cycle track will be installed on each
side of Louis Road between the two offset intersections, raised to sidewalk level. This will allow
bicyclists to maintain level while traveling along the bicycle boulevard. Driveway access will be
maintained. Additional street lighting will increase visibility for bicyclists and motorists at night.
Amarillo Avenue from Louis Avenue to Ohlone Elementary School
A new curb extension with landscaping, trees, and a Class IV separated bikeway that maintains
City of Palo Alto Page 7
the existing sidewalk would be installed to accommodate two-way bicycle travel on the school
side of the street to minimize conflicts between motorists and children bicycling to school. A
bicycle boulevard pavement legend would also be continued through this segment, to
accommodate bicyclists who prefer not to use a separated facility. New curb extensions with
trees or bioretention would be added in the vicinity of Ohlone Elementary School to reduce
vehicle speeds and improve aesthetics. New covered bicycle parking would be added at the
school.
Amarillo Avenue from Ohlone Elementary School to Bayshore
Bicycle boulevard wayfinding signs will be installed to help bicyclists navigate to destinations
and identify the bicycle boulevard route. Bicycle boulevard gateway signage alerts motorists
and bicyclists that they are entering the enhanced bikeway.
The existing midblock crosswalk near Ohlone Elementary School will be relocated to the south
side of the driveway, and replaced with a raised crosswalk. This will reduce conflicts between
pedestrians and motorists by placing the crosswalk in a location that does not require students
to cross the driveway entrance, and will increase visibility of pedestrian (especially elementary
school students) by raising them into view of motorists.
A new traffic circle with mountable apron at Greer Road will improve traffic flow while reducing
motorist speeds. High visibility crosswalk markings will increase visibility of pedestrians.
Additional street lighting will increase visibility for bicyclists and motorists at night.
A slotted speed hump with landscaped planters near Greer Road will reduce motorist speeds
while maintaining a level path of travel for bicyclists, and will improve corridor aesthetics by
providing additional landscaping. Curb extensions with landscaping and trees at both Tanland
Drive intersections will enhance walking by reducing crossing distances and reduce motorist
speeds by narrowing the roadway. High visibility crosswalk markings at both Tanland Drive
intersections will increase visibility of pedestrians, and additional street lighting will increase
visibility for bicyclists and motorists at night.
Landscaped medians and planters near Bayshore Road will reduce vehicle speeds by narrowing
the roadway. Additional street lighting will increase visibility for bicyclists and motorists at
night.

Policy Implications
City of Palo Alto Page 12
The Bicycle + Pedestrian Transportation Plan identifies and prioritizes the development of the
bicycle boulevard network. The Plan objectives that are addressed by the development of the
Amarillo Avenue-Moreno Avenue, Bryant Street Update, Louis Road-Montrose Avenue, and
Ross Road Bicycle Boulevard Projects are:
Objective 1: Double the rate of bicycling for both local and total work commutes by
2020 (to 15% and 5%, respectively).
Objective 2: Convert discretionary vehicle trips into walking and bicycling trips in order
to reduce City transportation-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions 15% by 2020.
Objective 3: Develop a core network of shared paths, bikeways, and traffic-calmed
streets that connects business and residential districts, schools, parks, and open spaces
to promote healthy, active living.
Objective 4: Plan, construct, and maintain ‘Complete Streets’ that are safe and
accessible to all modes and people of all ages and abilities.
Objective 5: Promote efficient, sustainable, and creative use of limited public resources
through integrated design and planning.
In addition, the Comprehensive Plan goals, policies, and programs that support the
development of the Amarillo Avenue-Moreno Avenue, Bryant Street Update, Louis Road-
Montrose Avenue, and Ross Road Bicycle Boulevard Projects include:
Goal T-1: Less Reliance on Single-Occupant Vehicles
Goal T-3: Facilities, Services, and Programs the Encourage and Promote Walking and
Bicycling
Program T-19: Develop, periodically update, and implement a bicycle facilities
improvement program and a pedestrian facilities improvement program that identify
and prioritize critical pedestrian and bicycle links to parks, schools, retail centers, and
civic facilities.
Program T-22: Implement a network of bike boulevards.
Policy T-25: When constructing or modifying roadways, plan for usage of the roadway
space by all users, including motor vehicles, transit vehicles, bicyclists, and pedestrians.
Policy T-34: Implement traffic calming measures to slow traffic on local and collector
residential streets and prioritize these measures over congestion management. Include
traffic circles and other traffic calming devices among these measures.
City of Palo Alto Page 13
While it is difficult to estimate the impacts of individual bicycle boulevard projects, the City of
Portland, Oregon has recently completed and assessment of its bicycle boulevard program and
recorded counts of between 1,000 and 4,000 cyclists per day on its busiest corridors. Increasing
the number of cyclists using the bicycle boulevard network within Palo Alto to these levels
would meet many of the objectives and goals listed above and also help the City increase
bicycle traffic for local and work commute trips by 100% by 2020.
Resource Impact
Detailed cost estimates for the bicycle boulevard projects will be developed as part of the Final
Design phase of work. As part of the approval of the City’s Infrastructure Plan, the City Council
allocated $20.0 million towards bicycle and pedestrian plan implementation. For Fiscal Years
2014 through FY 2020 $12.4 million has been budgeted in the CIP for the Bicycle & Pedestrian
Transportation Plan Implementation Project (PL-04010). Of that amount, $.9 million has been
spent to date and an additional $1.9M has been encumbered.
Staff actively seeks regional, state and federal grant funding to offset resources identified for
bicycle and pedestrian plan implementation. As grant funds are secured or low-cost project
improvements identified, Transportation Division staff will coordinate with the Public Works
Department for implementation as part of the street resurfacing program. Minor elements of
the Concept Plan Lines may be implemented opportunistically through the Transportation
Division’s other CUPs for pavement markings, signs and traffic signals.
Timeline
Upon approval of the Concept Plan Lines, Final Design for the Amarillo Avenue-Moreno Avenue,
Bryant Street Update, Louis Road-Montrose Avenue, and Ross Road Bicycle Boulevard Projects
will begin immediately and should be completed at the end of 2016. Staff anticipates that
construction will begin in the spring of 2017 and last for one year.
Environmental Review
A Negative Declaration for the Bicycle + Pedestrian Transportation Plan was adopted on
September 4, 2012. Each individual project is subject to environmental assessment after there
is agreement on a Concept Plan Line for further study.
As part of the current phase of work, an assessment was made of the potential environmental
impacts of this work and a Categorical Exemption is recommended under CEQA Guidelines
section 15301 for minor alternation of existing facilities. This project will make bicycle and
pedestrian improvements to multiple existing roadways. Improvements include new bicycle
boulevard striping, wayfinding and safety signs, crosswalks, median and landscape islands, bulb-
outs, stop control modification, traffic circles within existing rights-of-way, new tree plantings,
speed humps, and raised intersections. No trees will be removed and all work will occur within
the existing public right-of-way. The project is limited to minor alteration of existing roadways.
The work will facilitate bicycle and pedestrian use and will not increase the roadway capacities.

Subject: Traffic Analysis for the Bicycle Boulevards Project in City of Palo Alto
Introduction
Hexagon Transportation Consultants, Inc. has completed a traffic analysis for the proposed bicycle boulevards along Bryant Street, Ross Road, Louis-Montrose, and Moreno-Amarillo in Palo Alto, California.
Bicycle Boulevard projects are on streets where bicycling is already appealing for many riders due to low traffic volumes and speeds, and good access to key destinations such as schools, parks, and connections
across key barriers. The City has identified potential improvements on these routes including revised traffic controls to promote cycling convenience, custom signage and wayfinding, additional traffic calming, and other
measures. The purpose of the project is to enhance bikeway facilities across the Palo Alto communities.
This memo documents the results of the traffic analysis to identify potential operational issues that could
occur as a result of the proposed changes along the bicycle boulevards. The following intersections would be affected by changes in traffic control (see Figure 1):
Bryant Street and Palo Alto/Poe – 4-way stop to Roundabout
Bryant Street and Addison Avenue - Traffic circle to Roundabout
Bryant Street and N California Avenue - 4-way stop to Roundabout
Bryant Street and Loma Verde Avenue - 4-way stop to Roundabout
Bryant Street and Kingsley Avenue - 2-way stop to Roundabout
Ross Road and Moreno Avenue - 4-way stop to Roundabout
Ross Road and Clara Drive - 4-way Stop to 2-way Stop
Ross Road and Ames Avenue – 4-way stop to 2-way stop
Ross Road and East Meadow Drive – 4-way stop to Roundabout
Ross Road and Mayview Avenue - 3-way stop to one-side stop
Ross Road and Louis Road – 4-way stop to Roundabout
Louie Road and E Meadow Drive - 4-way stop to Roundabout
E Meadow Drive and E Meadow Circle - 4-way stop to Roundabout
Moreno Avenue and Louis Road - 2-way stop to 4-way stop
Louis Road and Fielding Drive - 2-way stop to 4-way stop
Amarillo Avenue and Greer Road - 4-way to Roundabout
Traffic conditions were evaluated for the following scenarios:
Existing Conditions. Existing traffic volumes were obtained from new 2016 manual turning- movement counts. The new intersection count data are included in Appendix A.
Existing with Project Conditions. Existing with project conditions were evaluated using existing
traffic volumes and proposed changes for the intersection control type. The results were compared to existing conditions in order to determine the effects the project would have on traffic operations.

Existing Intersection Levels of Service
The existing lane configurations at the study intersections were obtained from field observations. Existing AM and PM peak-hour traffic volumes were obtained from new 2016 turning-movement counts. The new traffic count data are included in Appendix A.
The results of the intersection level of service analysis under existing conditions are summarized in Table 3. The results show that all of the study intersections are currently operating with delays corresponding to level of service A or B during both AM and PM peak hours.

Existing with Project Conditions
The intersection levels of service were recalculated with the proposed changes to traffic control. The results
of the intersection level of service analysis with the project are summarized in Table 4. The results of the level of service calculations show that under project conditions, all of the study intersections would still operate with
delays corresponding to LOS A or B. With the proposed changes in traffic controls, most of the study intersection would experience less delay than existing conditions. The delays at the following three
intersections would be increased slightly with the traffic control converted from 4-way stop to 2-way stop.

However, even at these three intersections, the delays would be relatively short and would correspond with
LOS B. The level of service calculation sheets are included in Appendix B.

Future (Year 2040) with Project Conditions
Future (Year 2040) conditions reflect traffic growth in the study area. The expected future traffic growth was estimated by applying a yearly growth factor to the existing AM and PM peak-hour volumes traffic for 34

Traffic Analysis for the Bicycle Boulevards Project in City of Palo Alto February 26, 2016
years. The growth factors of 0.44% per year for the AM peak hour and 0.48% per year for the PM peak hour were developed by Hexagon based on the Palo Alto Travel Demand Model.
Future with project condition level of service results are shown in Table 5. The results show that all the study intersections would still operate with delays corresponding to LOS C or better with future traffic volumes. The
level of service calculation sheets are included in Appendix B.

Conclusions
Based on the intersection level of service calculation results, all the study intersections are currently experiencing minor delays corresponding to LOS A or B. With the proposed traffic control changes, most of
the study intersections would experience less delay than existing conditions except for three intersections along Ross Road, which would experience increases in delay, but would still operate at LOS B. In the future
year 2040 with expected traffic growth, all the study intersection would operate at acceptable level of service C or better with the proposed traffic control changes.

Attachment G – March 29, 2016 Public Meeting
Summary
Attachment G
On March 29, 2016, The City of Palo Alto staff with help from Alta Planning + Design (Alta), the consultant
team, held a public meeting to present the concept plans for four bicycle boulevards: Amarillo Avenue &
Moreno Avenues, Bryant Street, Louis Road & Montrose Avenue, and Ross Road. The meeting was held
at Ohlone Elementary School from 6:30-8:30 PM. 61 people were recorded in attendance. The meeting
began with a presentation by the City of Palo Alto and Alta staff. The presentation focused on why these
projects are important to the city, previous meetings held for this project, how the concept plans have
changed based on public feedback at previous meetings, some technical aspects of bicycle boulevard
treatments, and the comment cards available to record comments.
Participants were invited to ask clarifying and process questions, but save corridor specific questions and
comments for the individual discussions. Several questions were raised, many regarding the proposed
mini-roundabouts and their efficacy. City staff directed attendees to the Federal Highway Administration’s
website on proven safety countermeasures (http://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/provencountermeasures/) for data
and research to support the use of roundabouts in Palo Alto.
After the presentation, attendees were directed to the back of the room where the concept plans were
presented on tables by corridor. Comment cards and pens were available at each table for attendees to
provide feedback. The comments provided by participants were scanned as written and are attached to this
document. Several emails and a flyer that was distributed before the event are also attached. Common
themes expressed on the comment cards are below. General comments are presented first, followed by
corridor-specific comments.
General Comments
The proposed designs are great and thank you for listening to us (9)
The proposed roundabouts are welcome (10)
The proposed removal of stop signs in favor of roundabouts does not seem safe for pedestrians
(2)
Palo Alto should be more bold with these designs (2)
More education should be done for all roadway users on these treatments (3)
The proposed raised intersections are welcome and should be implemented elsewhere (3)
When implementing these plans, do not add too many signs. Signs are an urban blight and can
distract from the roadway (3)
The proposed slotted speed bumps are welcome (2)
Amarillo Avenue & Moreno Avenues
The increase in landscaping along Amarillo is welcome (4)
The removal of parking on Amarillo near Greer Park should be mitigated by adding more parking
to the parking lot nearby (2)
Two attendees mentioned the proposed mini-roundabout at Ross at Moreno. One was in favor and
one was opposed.
Bryant Street
The proposed roundabout at Bryant at California was a major topic for discussion. Some attendees
commented that a roundabout at this intersection is a safety concern and will not work as intended
(6). Other attendees were in favor of the design and noted that it will go a long way to make all
roadway users feel safe (5).
The proposed parking removal near the First Baptist Church is worrisome due to the large number
of Sunday and nighttime events (4)
Louis Road & Montrose Avenue
The proposed roundabouts are welcome (1)
Although not technically part of this project, the concept plans note to consider relocating the
existing crossing and bus stop from the driveway into Walgreens to Moreno as a potential future
project. One person was in favor of this and two were against
Ross Road
The proposed landscaping on Ross in front of the YMCA parking lot should be kept short for
maximum visibility (2)
The existing traffic signal at Ross and Oregon Expressway is not timed for bicyclists even though
bicyclists are the only ones that use the signal. This light should either be removed or retimed (2)
Keep the stop signs on Ross at Ames (2)
In addition to the comments received about the project corridors, there were two comments made about
other projects or policy issues. Specifically:
Charleston Road. Although not a part of this project, two comments were made about the markings
along Charleston Road needing to be reworked.
Trash Pickup Policy. The new policy regarding leaving trash cans in bike lanes is hazardous for all
roadway users as bicyclists must swerve out of the bike lane into the vehicle lane to not run into
them (2)

Thanks again
White is better than green. The green marking are distasteful and and distracting.
Why do we need any markings at all? Drivers ignore signage. Bikers already know the street,
All of this signage gets ignored very quickly (almost immediately after it is installed) and is just - IMHO - urban blight.
The visual effect is unpleasant and it changes the character of suburban to urban

No biker has difficulty knowing this is a bike path. From the plans it looks to me like the green "gateway markings" will be at the
intersection of Colorado and Bryant as well as the intersection of El Dorado and Bryant.
The only problem I witness on a daily basis is the bike speeders who consider Bryant their own personal street. They are extremely rude
and just this weekend one came within
inches of hitting me as I was trimming my bushes,
I oppose the green markings. They are urban blight and do not belong on a residential street. Several of my neighbors agree with me.
If I am looking at the plans incorrectly, please let me know.

Subject: Bryant/N. California Street(s) roundabout
Dear Mr. Mello,
I realize this is coming to you on the eve of a community meeting about changes to the Bryant Street Bike Blvd, but I wanted to get
in touch with you about the proposal for the Bryant/ N . California intersection.
Let me say up front that my family enjoys the "bikability" of Palo Alto and we bike to school and work every day. But we also live
within 150' of the above mentioned intersection and have some serious concerns about the proposed changes. My wife and I, as well
as every neighbor in the vicinity, feel that the roundabout idea is a poor one at best. From what I've seen at previous meetings, and
from the current drawing, it appears to merge bicycles and vehicular traffic into one lane, leaving very little room for error. Remember
this intersection is heavily used by young teens coming and going to Jordan Middle School and Palo Alto High School. If the city is
expecting them to abide by the rules of a roundabout 100% of the time they are deluding themselves. My wife and I have said
separately that the most dangerous section of Bryant street for a cyclist is the roundabout at Addison. Cars fly into it without looking,
or completely do not understand the right of way. I've had to lock up my brakes and veer out of the way several times. This would be
worse and Bryant and N. California because there is more traffic of every type.
The second issue regarding a roundabout at N. California and Bryant streets is the parking problem that will arise from the removal of
parking spaces at each corner of the intersection. If you take into consideration the size of the chicanes it seems feasible that we'd
lose sixteen in total. This is unacceptable because the First Baptist Church at that corner has become less of a church and more of a
community center. Without exaggeration, well over a hundred people come and go every afternoon. There is a large music school
comprising the entire top floor of the former church rectory. There are other businesses on site as well and they all need to park
somewhere. My family is rarely afforded the luxury of parking in from of our own home. Same is true for our neighbors. The loss of
any parking spaces would be detrimental to the flow of everyday life for the neighborhood.
In short this is a reckless proposal that has not been studied properly and it should not be allowed to proceed.
Thank you for your time.
All best,

Subject: Traffic circles
I don’t have an objection to circles per se, I actually like them. But I urge you to build and implement them as
they are intended to be, and as Stanford has done on campus: they should be a four way YIELD , and not have
stop signs on two sides, as the one at Bryant and Addison does. This defeats the purpose of the circle. If you
construct more in Palo Alto, please keep this in mind. And get rid of the stop signs on Addison.
