Baseline Assumptions - Update

  • Candlestick Point/Hunters Point Shipyard projects require strong BRT,

bicycle, and pedestrian links from Executive Park area to Caltrain.

  • Recology and City of Brisbane need and plan to make Alanna/Beatty

link to Caltrain infeasible

  • Only east-west streets that are feasible for BRT, bicycle, pedestrian link

are Blanken or Blanken/Lathrop couplet.

  • Need for interim BRT to

stave off congestion impacts on travel time & reliability

  • Regional requirements

for Pedestrian-to- Transit connections at major transit stations

  • Regional requirements

for Bike-to-Transit connections at major transit stations

  • Regional requirements

for Transit-to-Transit connections at major transit stations

  • Safety is a priority

concern

  • Sole existing link

between Exec Park and Caltrain is Beatty (Class III)

  • Blanken is route for

Assumptions update

baseline bus frequency

www.genevabrt.org 6

Increased frequency for many bus lines

  • 29 to 5-min
  • 56 to 15-min
  • Retail shuttle

to 7.5-min

Candlestick Point/Hunters Point Shipyard Plan

  • Alanna assumed for

bike and BRT undercrossing, but did not include needed Interim Plan

Bayshore Station Access Study

  • Recognized need

for safe bike-ped access and BRT links that were separate from freeway traffic on Geneva Ext

Baseline Assumptions Update

Bi-County Transportation Study

  • Recognized need for interim

BRT links that were independent and separate from Geneva Extension AND that avoid Recology and Beatty

Interim solution A (0-5 years)

Adequate bus lanes promote operations and safety

Stockton Street – before

Stockton between Vallejo and Broadway 8’ parking, 9’3” travel lane 10’ travel lane 10’ travel/parking lane

Muni bus crossing double yellow line

Narrow travel lanes force Muni buses to cross double yellow line to clear parked vehicles. When large vehicles or buses travel in opposite direction, buses must stop and wait for them to pass before safely proceeding.

Stockton Street – Proposal (Columbus  Broadway)

Eliminate parking on east side of Stockton Street

12’ travel lane 13’3” travel lane 12’ parking

  • 1. Eliminate parking
  • n east side of

Stockton

  • 3. Maintain parking on

west side of Stockton Street with 12’ parking lane. Retains right turn lane at Broadway.

  • 2. Shift double yellow line to

the east to create wider travel lanes in each direction Summary

  • Widens northbound and

southbound travel lanes to at least 12’ by eliminating parking on east side of street.

  • Extra right-of-way

presents future

  • pportunity to widen

sidewalk.

  • Several merchants on

east side of Stockton Street, including a Walgreens (located 100’ south of Vallejo), currently use east side parking for deliveries.

  • Parking loss: 18 spaces

including yellow zones from Columbus to Broadway North

8’-12’ 8’-12’

36’ roadway

6’-10’ 8’-12’

38’ roadway

reduce / narrow sidewalk widths to retain parking (6’ feet in locations)

EXAMPLE ONLY

  • 6’ sidewalks substandard for new

construction (8’ minimum)

  • longer time to benefits with sidewalk

reconstruction

  • greater costs, though may find

savings if project bundling available

maintain two-way travel on Blanken

EXAMPLE ONLY

  • no impact on Lathrop, but
  • parking removal on both sides
  • f Blanken, and
  • dedicated bus lane in only one

direction 36’ roadway

dedicated bus lane for greater reliability & travel time maintain sidewalk and roadway width
