Subject Bill Roalman Traffic Signal-Thank you!
Dear Members of the Council, La ��'
As the Commuter Services Coordinator for the Cal Poly campus I would
Pike to thank you for taking another look at the intersection of Santa
Barbara St. and Upham St. to better accommodate bicyclists.The
intersection is an integral part of a viable network of bicycle lanes
and pathways in the city and deserves special attention.The safety of
literally thousands of student bicycle riders, as well as the many staff
members that are avid bicyde riders, is of great concern to me. This
would improve the safety of their commute to and from campus.
I would also like to urge that the Bill Roalman Bicycle Blvd. be
completed.A finished Bicycle Blvd. would create a safer connection for
bicydist between downtown and points of connection along existing and
future segments of the Railroad Safety Trail.
Bicycling is an important mode of transportation and should be
considered in any project under consideration.Thank you for your
leadership, not only for the bicycle community but also for being a
strong advocate for healthy living, physical activity, and public.safety.
