Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 1
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard
Alternatives Screening Analysis
Revision 1 (Updated 6/1/17)
I. Introduction
As part of the project development process for the Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard, a planned
project to develop a low-stress bicycle route connecting the San Luis Obispo downtown core
north to Foothill Boulevard, three distinct concept alternatives have been developed. Concept
alternatives were developed based on review of existing transportation conditions and through
input provided by the community through ongoing stakeholder outreach efforts. The intent of this
assessment is to analyze each concept alternative based on relevant quantitative and
qualitative criteria in order to communicate the relative benefits, disadvantages and challenges
associated with each alternative to the community and local decision-makers. Ultimately, the
findings of this analysis will be shared with the community for review, and a preferred alternative
will be selected for further development.
Each section below provides a summary evaluating the three primary concept alternatives,
other improvement recommendations not specific to the individual concept alternatives, and a
“No Project” option. The following topics are considered in this analysis:

II. Project Description
Key project features included in this assessment are described
as follows.
Concept Alternative 1
This alternative represents a traditional bicycle boulevard, with
the addition of speed and volume management treatments
along Broad Street between Lincoln and Ramona with the goal
of reducing vehicular speeds and volumes along Broad Street to
levels conducive of a low-stress bicycling environment. Traffic
diverters are proposed at the intersections of Broad/Meinecke,
Branded Signage and Pavement Markings
Identify a Priority Route for Bicyclists
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 2
Diverters shift through auto traffic to other routes
Speed cushions allow emergency vehicles to pass
through, while reducing passenger car speeds
Broad/Mission and Broad/Center to shift vehicular through traffic from Broad Street to other
alternate routes—predominantly Chorro Street. New speed cushions1 are proposed between
Mission and Mountain View and a new neighborhood traffic circle is proposed at
Broad/Mountain View to further reduce vehicle speeds. Existing speed humps are retained
along Broad Street between Meinecke and Mission, with the potential to be replaced with speed
humps to reduce impacts to emergency vehicles and improve speed reduction effectiveness.
Currently, some cyclists, particularly riders
with school-age children, prefer to use
alternate routes to Broad Street traveling
northbound between Lincoln and Mission in
order to avoid the slight uphill grade on
Broad Street. Even with proposed bicycle
facility improvements on Broad Street, some
cyclists are anticipated to continue using this
alternate route. To better facilitate
connectivity between this alternate
northbound route and the bicycle boulevard,
additional bicycle facility enhancements are
proposed on Chorro Street to provide
directional guidance and legitimize this route. These enhancements—which are informally
referred to herein as the Almond Street “Wiggle”—include striping modifications along Chorro
Street between Lincoln and Center to provide a dedicated northbound bike lane, and additional
pavement markings/wayfinding signage to mark a formal route connecting northbound Chorro
Street to Broad Street via Center/Almond/Mission Street.
In the long-term, the City and Caltrans have
proposed the closure of the US 101 ramps at
Broad Street and construction of a
pedestrian/bicycle bridge over the highway. Until
those changes are realized, the bicycle boulevard
alignment will follow Chorro Street between
Lincoln and downtown. Concept Alternative 1
includes striping enhancements to extend the
existing buffered bike lanes on Chorro Street
between Lincoln and Walnut to improve this
connection.
Branded bicycle boulevard directional signage
and pavement markings are proposed along the
entirety of the corridor for wayfinding purposes and to clearly define the route as a priority
1 Speed cushions provide vertical deflection, similar to speed humps, with the purpose of reducing vehicle speeds.
However, speed cushions include wheel cutouts to allow large emergency vehicles to pass by unimpeded. These
devices can provide the traffic calming benefits of speed humps without significantly impeding emergency vehicle
response efficiency.

bicycle corridor. Accessible curb ramps and sidewalk improvements are proposed along the
extent of the bicycle boulevard alignment.
Attachment 2 illustrates the detailed design elements for Concept Alternative 1.
Concept Alternative 2
This alternative is ultimately not a bicycle boulevard. The proposed concept includes conversion
of Broad Street and Chorro Street to a one-way couplet system. Broad Street would be
converted to one-way southbound and Chorro Street would be converted to one-way
northbound between Meinecke and Lincoln. Elimination of the northbound vehicular traffic lane
on Broad Street provides width to provide a single southbound vehicle lane, retain on-street
parking on both sides of the street, and add a dedicated buffered bike lane in the southbound
direction. No bicycle facility is provided on this segment of Broad Street in the northbound
direction.
Elimination of the southbound vehicular lane on
Chorro Street provides width to maintain one
northbound vehicle lane, on-street parking on both
sides of the street, and add a parking-buffered,
two-way protected bikeway (“cycle track”). This
configuration provides low-stress bicycle
connections in the northbound and southbound
directions and improves route options for
bicyclists traveling between downtown and
Foothill Boulevard. Existing speed humps are
retained along Broad Street north of Mission, and
new speed cushions are proposed between
Mission and Mountain View to calm southbound
vehicular traffic along this segment of the corridor.

Chicanes are an effective traffic calming
strategy on low‐speed residential streets
CHORRO STREET TYPICAL CROSS SECTION
(ONE-WAY NB FROM MEINECKE TO LINCOLN)
Similar to Alternative 1, this alternative includes directional signage and pavement markings for
wayfinding purposes and to clearly define each route as a priority bicycle corridor. Additional
signage and pavement markings are provided at side-street intersections along Broad Street
and Chorro Street between Meinecke and Lincoln to restrict vehicular access to the appropriate
one-way direction and to increase visibility of vehicle/bicycle conflict areas. Accessible curb
ramps and sidewalk improvements are proposed along Broad and Chorro where ramps do not
exist currently.
Attachment 3 illustrates the detailed design elements for Concept Alternative 2.
Concept Alternative 3
Based on public input provided upon preliminary review of this Alternatives Analysis, a third
concept alternative, Alternative 3, has been added for consideration. This alternative represents
a traditional bicycle boulevard on Broad Street, like Concept Alternative 1, but without traffic
diversion that shifts auto traffic off Broad Street. Instead, this concept includes additional focus
on traffic calming features to further reduce vehicle speeds on Broad Street and Chorro Street.
The intent of this alternative is to work towards developing an ideal, low-stress bicycle boulevard
through speed reduction treatments in the short-term, and volume reductions in the long-term in
conjunction with Caltrans’ ultimate plans to close the
US 101 ramps at Broad Street. This option develops
an ideal bicycle boulevard over time without the
potential challenges associated with significant traffic
circulation changes, as proposed in Alternatives 1
and 2.
As with Alternative 1, new speed cushions are
proposed on Broad Street between Mission and
Mountain View and a new neighborhood traffic circle
is proposed at Broad/Mountain View to reduce
vehicle speeds. The existing speed humps on Broad
between Meinecke and Serrano will be retained and
chicanes will be installed between Serrano and
Mission to provide further traffic calming along this
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 5
stretch of Broad. In addition, speed cushions are proposed along Chorro Street between
Meinecke and Lincoln to improve the bicycling and pedestrian environment and neighborhood
quality for users that will continue to travel and reside along Chorro Street.
As with Alternative 1, Alternative 3 includes the Almond Street “Wiggle”, which provides an
alternate northbound bypass route for bicyclists via Chorro/Center/Almond/Mission to avoid the
uphill grade on the southern segment of Broad Street, which can be challenging for some riders.
Until the long-term plans for closure of the US 101 ramps and construction of a
pedestrian/bicycle bridge over the highway are realized, the bicycle boulevard alignment will
follow Chorro Street between Lincoln and the downtown core.
As with Alternative 1, branded bicycle boulevard directional signage and pavement markings
are proposed along the entirety of the corridor for wayfinding purposes and to identify the route
as a priority bicycle corridor. Accessible curb ramps and sidewalk improvements are proposed
along the extent of the bicycle boulevard alignment.
Attachment 4 illustrates the detailed design elements for Concept Alternative 3.
No Build Alternative
A “No Build” alternative is considered in this screening assessment for the purposes of
comparing the proposed project components to a scenario where no improvements are
implemented. This scenario assumes existing roadway features and traffic characteristics will
remain as exist currently.
Other Project Components
Additional features not specific to Concept Alternatives 1, 2 and 3 are proposed as part of the
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard Project. These components can ultimately be omitted, or
included as part of a preferred project, regardless of which alternative is recommended for
further development. These ancillary features are discussed in the assessment below for
informational purposes, but are not considered when directly comparing the three primary
concept alternatives in the screening analysis summary (Attachment 1).
Broad Street to Foothill Connection
To bridge the link between the northern terminus of the Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard and the
Foothill Boulevard corridor, two potential options are being investigated.
Option A: Ramona Cycle Track & Class I Path through
LDS Church Property
This option includes a proposed two-way Class I
Bicycle/Pedestrian Path extending through the eastern
edge of the undeveloped field within Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS) property between
Ramona Drive and Foothill Boulevard. A protected
bikeway (“cycle track”) would also be considered along
the north side of Ramona Drive to provide a continuous
bicycle connection between this new Class I path and Class I Bicycle/Pedestrian Path
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 6
Broad Street. The northern terminus of the Class I path would align nicely with a proposed
enhanced pedestrian/bicycle crossing at the Foothill/Ferrini intersection, which is being explored
as part of a parallel Safe Routes to School (SRTS) planning effort. Together, these
improvements would provide a low-stress, dedicated connection between the bicycle boulevard
and the neighborhoods north of Foothill. Implementation of this option would require an
agreement with the church to utilize a portion of their property for the Class I path, as well as
potential removal of some on-street parking along the north side of Ramona Drive.
Option B: Broad Street & Foothill Boulevard Bike Box
This option includes the addition of a bike lane and
bike box2 at the northbound approach to the Broad
Street/Foothill Boulevard intersection to improve the
bicycle connection from northbound Broad to
westbound Foothill. Currently, there is insufficient
width along Broad Street between Ramona and
Foothill to provide these features. Implementation of
these improvements would require utility relocation
and tree removal, as well as an easement or right-of-
way acquisition to widen of the east side of Broad
Street approaching the Broad/Foothill intersection.
Attachments 5 - 6 illustrate the design elements
associated with the Broad Street to Foothill
Boulevard connection options described above.
Street Lighting Improvements
Community members have expressed concerns regarding the lack of adequate street lighting
along Broad and Chorro Streets north of the downtown core. The existing street lighting along
the corridor does not meet the spacing recommendations specified in current City Engineering
Standards. To improve the comfort and perceived safety of the pedestrian environment along
the bicycle boulevard, additional street light installations are recommended along Broad Street
and Chorro Street between Meinecke and Lincoln Streets.
Attachment 7 illustrates the street lighting improvements proposed for the Broad Street
corridor.
III. Traffic Impacts
In order to assess potential vehicular traffic impacts associated with the proposed project,
several criteria were evaluated for “No Build” conditions and for each concept alternative. Traffic
2 A bike box is a designated area at the head of a traffic lane at a signalized intersection that provides bicyclists
with a safe and visible way to get ahead of queuing traffic during a red signal phase. This treatment helps prevent
right‐hook conflicts with turning vehicles by increasing visibility of bicyclists and facilitating bicyclist left‐turn
positioning at intersections.
Bike Boxes improve visibility and comfort for
cyclists at intersections
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 7
impacts are assessed in terms of roadway segment and intersection congestion/delays (levels
of service3), neighborhood quality of life (per City neighborhood traffic thresholds), convenience
of property access, and potential impacts to emergency services.
Traffic Volumes
Existing (2016) roadway segment and intersection traffic volumes were collected for streets
within the vicinity of the Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard. Average Daily Traffic (ADT) volumes
were collected for roadway segments, while AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes were
organized for segments and intersections. All traffic data was collected during typical
weekdays, avoiding school holidays, construction impacts, inclement weather or other unusual
events.
To evaluate traffic conditions for each concept alternative, existing traffic volumes were
redistributed to reflect anticipated traffic diversion in conjunction with proposed roadway
modifications that would shift traffic from, or limit access to Broad Street and Chorro Street. For
example, with Concept Alternative 1, the proposed traffic diverters at Broad/Meinecke,
Broad/Mission and Broad/Center, would shift traffic from Broad parallel routes—predominantly
Chorro Street. Similarly, for Concept Alternative 2, conversion of Broad Street and Chorro Street
to one-way between Meinecke and Lincoln would shift all northbound auto traffic to Chorro
Street and all southbound auto traffic to Broad Street. While the traffic calming elements
proposed in Alternative 3 may persuade a few drivers to consider alternate routes to Broad
Street, under Alternative 3, traffic volumes are assumed to essentially remain similar to existing,
or “No Build” levels.
Estimated traffic volumes for each concept alternative are shown on maps in Attachment 8.
Roadway Segment Levels of Service
Roadway segment levels of service were calculated for AM and PM peak hour conditions along
Broad Street and Chorro Street based on Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) 2012
Generalized Service Volume Thresholds. FDOT service volume thresholds are developed
based on planning applications of the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) and provide a
convenient planning-level tool for assessing roadway segment operations. This methodology is
consistent with the segment analysis included in the City’s 2014 General Plan Circulation
Element. Impacts for study roadway segments are evaluated based on the City’s adopted
performance target of LOS D or better for streets outside of the Downtown Core.
Roadway segment levels of service are summarized in Table 1 and results for existing “No
Build” conditions, Concept Alternative 1, 2 and 3 are discussed below.
3 Level of Service (LOS) is a standard qualitative measure used to describe traffic conditions in terms of speed,
travel time, delays and driver convenience. LOS is defined using letter grades “A” through “F”, with LOS A
representing free‐flow conditions, and LOS F representing heavy congestion with traffic demands exceeding
capacity.
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 8
No Build Alternative
As shown in Table 1, all study roadway segments currently operate at acceptable LOS D or
better.
Concept Alternative 1
As shown in Table 1, all study roadway segments are projected to operate at acceptable LOS D
or better under Concept Alternative 1. It should be noted that the segments of Chorro Street
between Meinecke and Mission are projected to degrade from acceptable LOS A/B to
acceptable LOS C/D in the northbound direction with the diversion of traffic from Broad to
Chorro Street under this alternative.
Concept Alternative 2
As shown in Table 1, all study roadway segments are projected to operate at acceptable LOS D
or better under Concept Alternative 2. As with Alternative 1, the segments of Chorro Street
between Meinecke and Mission are projected to degrade from acceptable LOS A/B to
acceptable LOS C/D in the northbound direction under this alternative.
Concept Alternative 3
As shown in Table 1, all study roadway segments are projected to operate at acceptable LOS D
or better under Concept Alternative 3, with volumes similar to No Build conditions.
Other Project Components
Other proposed project features (as described in the Project Description section) would have a
negligible impact on roadway segment operations.

Intersection Levels of Service
Intersection levels of service were calculated for AM and PM peak hour conditions at key
intersections along and within the vicinity of the Broad Street corridor. Levels of service were
calculated based on 2010 HCM methodologies using Synchro 9 traffic analysis software. This
methodology is consistent with the methods recommended in the City’s Traffic Impact Study
Guidelines. Impacts for study intersections are evaluated based on the City’s adopted
performance target of LOS D or better for streets outside of the downtown core.
Intersection levels of service are summarized in Table 2 and results for existing “No Build”
conditions, Concept Alternative 1, 2 and 3 are discussed below.
No Build Alternative
As shown in Table 2, all study intersections currently operate at acceptable LOS D or better.
Concept Alternative 1
As shown in Table 2, all study intersections are projected to operate at acceptable LOS D or
better under Concept Alternative 1. It should be noted that the intersection of Chorro Street &
Lincoln Street is projected to degrade from acceptable LOS C to acceptable LOS D during the
AM peak hour under this alternative.
Concept Alternative 2
As shown in Table 2, all study intersections are projected to operate at acceptable LOS D or
better under Concept Alternative 2. As with Alternative 1, it should be noted that the intersection
of Chorro Street & Lincoln Street is projected to degrade from acceptable LOS C to acceptable
LOS D during the AM peak hour under this alternative.
Concept Alternative 3
As shown in Table 2, intersections would operate similar to existing, or “No Build” conditions,
with LOS D or better at all study intersections.
Other Project Components
Other proposed project features (as described in the Project Description section) would have a
negligible impact on intersection operations.

Neighborhood Impacts
Potential neighborhood impacts were evaluated by comparing the estimated ADT volumes
along Residential Collector and Local Streets within the vicinity of the project with the maximum
ADT targets established in the City General Plan Circulation Element. Project impacts would be
considered significant if proposed improvements cause a street to exceed the applicable
maximum neighborhood ADT threshold, or if the project further increases traffic volumes on a
street that already exceeds the maximum ADT thresholds under existing conditions.
Neighborhood traffic impacts are summarized in Table 3 and results for existing “No Build”
conditions, Concept Alternative 1, 2 and 3 are discussed below.

No Build Alternative
As shown in Table 3, the volumes along the segments of Chorro Street north of Lincoln Street
currently exceed the City’s established maximum neighborhood ADT threshold of 5,000
vehicles/day. In addition, the existing volumes along Lincoln Street between Broad and Chorro
currently exceeds the maximum neighborhood ADT threshold of 3,000 vehicles/day.
Concept Alternative 1
As shown in Table 3, the shift in traffic associated with the traffic diverters proposed in Concept
Alternative 1 is anticipated to result in the following neighborhood traffic impacts:
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 13
Chorro Street (Meinecke to Center and Center to Lincoln) – Traffic volumes are
anticipated to increase along Chorro Street to approximately 9,700-9,800 vehicles/day
(≈60% increase), worsening neighborhood traffic issues where existing volumes already
exceed the established neighborhood ADT threshold volume of 5,000 vehicles/day.
Meinecke Street (Broad to Chorro) – Traffic volumes are anticipated to increase to
approximately 2,900 vehicles per day, which exceeds the maximum neighborhood ADT
threshold of 1,500 vehicles/day.
Lincoln Street (Broad to Chorro) – Traffic volumes are anticipated to increase to
approximately 6,400 vehicles per day, worsening neighborhood traffic issues where
existing volumes already exceed the established neighborhood ADT threshold volume of
3,000 vehicles/day.
Concept Alternative 2
As shown in Table 3, the street modifications proposed in Concept Alternative 2 are anticipated
to result in the following neighborhood traffic impacts:
Chorro Street (Meinecke to Center and Center to Lincoln) – Traffic volumes are
anticipated to decrease slightly along Chorro Street to approximately 5,100 vehicles/day
(≈15% decrease). This would slightly worsen neighborhood traffic issues where existing
volumes already exceed the established neighborhood ADT threshold volume of 5,000
vehicles/day.
Meinecke Street (Broad to Chorro) – Traffic volumes are anticipated to increase to
approximately 2,900 vehicles per day, which exceeds the maximum neighborhood ADT
threshold of 1,500 vehicles/day.
Lincoln Street (Broad to Chorro) – Traffic volumes are anticipated to increase to
approximately 6,000 vehicles per day, worsening neighborhood traffic issues where
existing volumes already exceed the established neighborhood ADT threshold volume of
3,000 vehicles/day.
Daily volumes on Broad Street would increase by approximately 20% on average under
Concept Alternative 2; however, these volumes would remain below the established maximum
ADT threshold for this street.
Projected daily volumes for Broad and Chorro Streets under each concept alternative are
summarized in the chart below.
Concept Alternative 3
As shown in Table 3, in the near-term, traffic volumes are anticipated to remain generally similar
to existing (No Build), conditions under Alternative 3. Under this scenario, volumes along the
segments of Chorro Street north of Lincoln Street, and along Lincoln Street between Broad and
Chorro are expected to continue to exceed the City’s established maximum neighborhood ADT
thresholds.
For reference purposes, Table 3 includes a summary of projected daily traffic volumes on Broad
and Chorro under Alternative 3 with the ultimate closure of the Highway 101/Broad Street
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 14
ramps. Under these conditions, traffic volumes on Broad Street would be anticipated to drop
below 3,000 vehicles/day, within the acceptable range for a bicycle boulevard. In addition, traffic
volumes on Chorro would be anticipated to drop by about 16%.
Other Project Components
Other proposed project features (as described in the Project Description section) would have a
negligible impact on neighborhood traffic levels.
Property Access
This section describes the potential for each concept alternative to negatively impact the
convenience of accessing private properties along the proposed bicycle boulevard.
No Build Alternative
No change from existing.
Concept Alternative 1
Concept Alternative 1 includes proposed traffic diverters at the intersections of Broad/Meinecke,
Broad/Mission and Broad/Center. At each of these locations, vehicular through traffic on Broad
Street is restricted to right- or left-turn only movements in order to divert auto trips from Broad
Street to other routes. With these measures, many drivers with destinations along Broad Street
will need to travel via Chorro Street and the cross street nearest to their destination. In most
instances, this will require drivers to travel an additional 2-4 blocks beyond the shortest route
currently available, which could be described as a moderate inconvenience to these individuals.
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 15
Further, residents on Chorro Street may have more difficulty entering/exiting their driveways
during peak traffic periods with the increased volumes on Chorro Street.
In addition to affecting some residents that live along this segment of Broad Street, the
proposed access modifications are likely to add some confusion for visitors and drivers
unfamiliar with the local street network, leading to some circuitous traffic maneuvers and
inconvenience to these motorists.
Concept Alternative 2
Concept Alternative 2 includes conversion of Broad and Chorro Streets to a one-way couplet
system between Lincoln and Meinecke. Broad Street would be converted to a single lane with
one-way southbound vehicular traffic, while Chorro Street would include a single lane with one-
way vehicular access in the northbound direction. At each side street along the corridor,
vehicles would be restricted to access Broad and Chorro Streets from their respective one-way
direction only. With these modifications, many drivers with destinations along Broad Street will
need to travel northbound via Chorro Street before connecting to Broad at the nearest cross
street north of their destination. The same would be true for drivers with destinations along
Chorro Street, who will need to travel southbound on Broad Street before connecting to Chorro
at the nearest downstream cross street. Typically, this will require drivers with destinations on
the affected street segments to travel an additional 2-4 blocks beyond the shortest route
currently available. This could reasonably be described as a moderate inconvenience to these
individuals. In addition to affecting some residents that live along these segments of Broad and
Chorro Streets the proposed access modifications are likely to add some initial confusion for
visitors and drivers unfamiliar with the local street network, leading to some circuitous traffic
maneuvers and inconvenience to these motorists. A continuous one-way street segment is likely
to create less confusion among motorists than traffic diverters placed at several locations along
a corridor, as proposed in Concept Alternative 1.
With this alternative, residents will need to become accustomed to parking and entering/exiting
their driveways with the proposed street modifications. For example, on Chorro Street, it may
take some targeted outreach to residents to reinforce the need to look both ways for bicyclists
when backing out of driveways, as well as to communicate the correct locations to park adjacent
to the cycle track buffer area.
Concept Alternative 3
Concept Alternative 3 would essentially have no change from existing conditions in terms of
impacts to property access. The proposed traffic calming features would be designed in a way
that maintains access to private properties along the affected streets.
Other Project Components
Other proposed project features (as described in the Project Description section) would have a
negligible impact on access to properties along the bicycle boulevard.
Emergency Services Access
This section describes the potential for each concept alternative to negatively impact access for
emergency services. Although Chorro Street is designated as the primary north-south
emergency response route through this area of town, maintaining access to Broad Street for
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 16
emergency services remains important—particularly considering the proximity of the Villages
senior community and open space to the west.
No Build Alternative
No change from existing.
Concept Alternative 1
The proposed volume and speed management treatments included in this alternative would be
designed to minimize impacts to emergency services. The configuration of the traffic diverters
would allow emergency vehicles to bypass the diverters by briefly maneuvering into the
opposing travel lane, as they would if passing a vehicle on the left. The proposed speed
cushions are specifically designed with wheel cutouts that allow designated large-axle vehicles,
such as City fire trucks, to pass through unimpeded. The proposed neighborhood traffic circle at
Broad/Mountain View is similar to the devices currently installed along the South Chorro Street
corridor, which have proven to pose negligible impacts to emergency services.
Concept Alternative 2
The street modifications proposed in this alternative would restrict traffic circulation to one-way
southbound along Broad Street and one-way northbound along Chorro Street between
Meinecke and Lincoln. Emergency service providers would need to adapt to the modified one-
way couplet configuration. When accessing destinations along Broad or Chorro Streets from
Fire Station #2 on North Chorro Street, emergency service vehicles may need to connect
between Broad and Chorro at the nearest upstream cross street, which will likely add 1-2
blocks, and additional time, to their route compared to existing conditions.
With the proposed modifications to Broad Street, a minimum 20-foot clear width would be
maintained (including the southbound travel lane and buffered bike lane), allowing sufficient
width for southbound emergency vehicles to pass other vehicles when needed. As with Concept
Alternative 1, the proposed speed cushions on Broad Street are specifically designed with
wheel cutouts that allow designated large-axle vehicles, such as City fire trucks, to pass through
unimpeded. With the proposed modifications to Chorro Street, emergency vehicles would have
the ability to utilize the 11- to 12-foot clear width of the cycle track as an emergency bypass lane
to pass vehicles in the northbound travel lane, when needed. The physical separation protecting
the two-way cycle track from the adjacent vehicular travel lane would be designed with
adequate gaps and/or mountable curbs so that emergency vehicles can easily enter this area at
intersections, or mid-block to bypass traffic. Based on discussions with the San Luis Obispo
City Fire Department, Alternative 2 is the least desirable concept alternative from an emergency
response standpoint.
Concept Alternative 3
The proposed speed management treatments included in this alternative would be designed to
minimize impacts to emergency services. The proposed speed cushions are specifically
designed with wheel cutouts that allow designated large-axle vehicles, such as City fire trucks,
to pass through unimpeded. The chicanes proposed on Broad Street between Serrano and
Mission would be designed to accommodate emergency response vehicles, but would require
these vehicles reduce speeds to navigate this stretch of Broad Street. The proposed
neighborhood traffic circle at Broad/Mountain View is similar to the devices currently installed
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 17
along the South Chorro Street corridor, which have proven to pose negligible impacts to
emergency services.
Other Project Components
Other proposed project features (as described in the Project Description section) would have a
negligible impact on access to properties along the bicycle boulevard.
IV. Parking Considerations
Potential parking impacts are considered for the proposed project based on the estimated net
loss in on-street parking. Impacts were evaluated based on survey of existing parking supply
and demand, and review of planning-level concept designs for the proposed roadway
improvements. The ultimate number of on-street parking spaces eliminated may change as
project designs are refined. Parking impacts would be studied in further detail and
communicated to affected neighborhoods prior to implementation of the final project.
On-Street Parking Loss
Existing parking supply and parking loss under each concept alternative are summarized below.

Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 18
No Build Alternative
No change from existing.
Concept Alternative 1
Based on review of preliminary designs, implementation of Concept Alternative 1 is anticipated
to result in a net loss of 16 on-street parking spaces on Broad Street. Eight (8) of these spaces
are lost with the proposed traffic circle at the intersection of Broad Street/Mountain View. This
represents about 11% of the existing on-street parking on Broad Street.
Concept Alternative 2
Based on review of preliminary designs, implementation of Concept Alternative 2 is anticipated
to result in a net loss of 9 on-street parking spaces on Broad Street and 22 on-street parking
spaces on Chorro Street. Many of the net parking spaces lost on Chorro Street are the result of
additional parking restrictions to provide adequate sight distance at driveways. This represents
approximately 10%-11% of the existing combined on-street parking on Broad and Chorro
Streets.
Concept Alternative 3
Based on review of preliminary designs, implementation of Concept Alternative 3 is anticipated
to result in a net loss of 20 on-street parking spaces on Broad Street. Eight (8) of these spaces
are lost with the proposed traffic circle at the intersection of Broad Street/Mountain View, while
seven (7) of these spaces are lost with the proposed chicanes on Broad between Serrano and
Mission. This represents about 14% of the existing on-street parking on Broad Street.
Other Project Components
For the Broad Street to Foothill Connection Option A, on-street parking would need to be
eliminated along the north side of Ramona Drive. At the access point to the proposed Class I
path, approximately 3-4 on-street parking spaces would need to be eliminated to provide
adequate access and clear sight lines. Approximately 14-15 on-street parking spaces would
need to be eliminated to provide width for the proposed two-way cycle track between Broad
Street and the Class I Path access. In addition, a 40-foot loading that currently exists on
Ramona near the Broad Street intersection would need to be eliminated/relocated. In total,
approximately 17-19 on-street parking spaces would be lost on the north side of Ramona. On-
street parking is well-utilized in this neighborhood; thus, potential parking impacts would need to
be studied in further detail prior to project implementation.
For the Broad Street to Foothill Connection Option B, no loss of on-street parking is anticipated.
However, an existing 60-foot on-street commercial loading zone on northbound Broad Street
would need to be eliminated/relocated.
V. Costs
Planning-level order-of-magnitude construction cost estimates were developed for each project
component. For each corridor concept alternative, the full project costs are presented, as well
as the minimum costs needed to install the primary features of the alternative. Ultimate project
cost estimates would need to be refined in with preparation of final project designs.
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 19
Costs & Feasibility of Implementation
Table 5 below summarizes the planning-level cost estimates for each project concept
alternative, as well as for other proposed project components. These totals represent
preliminary estimates of project costs for the purposes of comparing project alternatives and are
conservative in nature.

*DISCLAIMER: It should be noted that the preliminary Full Project Cost totals include costs for
all improvements shown for each project alternative or component. Ultimately, improvements
would likely be implemented in phases, and some elements may be excluded from the final
project, depending on constructability challenges and/or availability of funds. Further, some
project elements can be implemented for an interim basis using lower-cost temporary materials
to reduce project costs and allow for testing and refinement of the project elements.
No Build Alternative
No change from existing.
Concept Alternative 1
As shown in Table 5, the full improvements identified in Concept Alternative 1 are anticipated to
cost approximately $879,000. About 60%-70% of the total costs are related to the proposed civil
improvements, such as construction of curb ramps, drainage improvements, sidewalks and
corner bulbouts. The total costs include design, materials, traffic control and construction.
Further advancement of the project designs would be needed to more accurately determine the
constructability challenges and costs associated with these features.
The minimum initial installation costs for this alternative are estimated at $98,000. This figure
represents the minimal investment needed to implemented the primary features of the project,
which includes striping modifications, signage and installation of traffic diverters, speed
cushions and the proposed traffic circle using lower-cost temporary materials. It would be
relatively easy to test the features proposed in this alternative as a temporary “pilot project” to
test and refine project designs.
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 20
Concept Alternative 2
As shown in Table 5, the full improvements identified in Concept Alternative 1 are anticipated to
cost approximately $1,109,000. About 50% of the total costs are related to the proposed civil
improvements, such as construction of curb ramps, drainage improvements, sidewalks, corner
bulbouts and an ultimate plan for construction of concrete curbing to separate the cycle track
from vehicular traffic. The total costs include design, materials, traffic control and construction.
Further advancement of the project designs would be needed to more accurately determine the
constructability challenges and costs associated with these features.
The minimum initial installation costs for this alternative are estimated at $148,000. This figure
represents the minimal investment needed to implemented the primary features of the project,
which includes striping modifications, signage and installation of speed cushions and the
proposed cycle track separation using lower-cost temporary materials, such as plastic flex-posts
and mountable curbing. Unlike Concept Alternative 1, this alternative would be more
challenging to implement as a temporary “pilot project” to test and refine the project features.
Concept Alternative 3
As shown in Table 5, the full improvements identified in Concept Alternative 3 are anticipated to
cost approximately $1,126,000. About 60%-70% of the total costs are related to the proposed
civil improvements, such as construction of curb ramps, drainage improvements, sidewalks and
corner bulbouts. The total costs include design, materials, traffic control and construction.
Further advancement of the project designs would be needed to more accurately determine the
constructability challenges and costs associated with these features.
The minimum initial installation costs for this alternative are estimated at $154,000. This figure
represents the minimal investment needed to implemented the primary features of the project,
which includes striping modifications, signage and installation of chicanes, speed cushions and
the proposed traffic circle using lower-cost temporary materials. It would be relatively easy to
test the features proposed in this alternative as a temporary “pilot project” to test and refine
project designs.
Other Project Components
The improvements proposed for the Broad Street to Foothill Connection Option A are
anticipated to cost between $175,000 and $547,000. The large range in potential costs is
primarily related to the undetermined cost to obtain an access easement or right-of-way within
the LDS Church property, and for installation of lighting along the proposed path, where costs
can vary significantly depending on the fixture type and challenges with establishing electrical
service.
As shown in Table 5, the improvements proposed for the Broad Street to Foothill Connection
Option B are anticipated to cost approximately $206,500. The magnitude of this cost is primarily
related to the challenge of widening the east side of Broad Street, and for relocation of the
existing utility poles, where costs can vary significantly from location to location. The estimated
costs for the Broad Street to Foothill Connection Option B are roughly 40-50% lower than for
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 21
Option A; however, it should be noted that the additional right-of-way needs and utility
relocations would present a significant challenge.
Installation of the additional street lighting proposed along Broad Street and Chorro Street is
anticipated to cost approximately $10,000 and $8,500, respectively.
VI. Bicycling Environment
Each concept alternative was assessed with regards to anticipated impacts on the bicycling
environment, considering how effective the design is at traffic calming, volume management
and how well it achieves the overall project goals and objectives for the Broad Street Bicycle
Boulevard.
Traffic Calming
Each concept alternative has been assessed qualitatively to consider the potential to reduce
traffic speeds along Broad Street. The desired maximum acceptable vehicle speeds along a
bicycle boulevard are 25 miles per hour,
while speeds as low as 20 mph provide
an ideal low-stress bicycling environment.
No Build Alternative
No change from existing. Existing
prevailing auto speeds along Broad Street
have been recorded at 27 mph north of
Mission Street and 30 mph south of
Mission. Prevailing speeds on Chorro
Street are approximately 31 mph. These
conditions exceed the speeds required for
a low-stress bicycle route.
Concept Alternative 1
The traffic diverters, speed cushions and
traffic circle proposed in Concept Alternative 1 are anticipated to reduce vehicle speeds along
the Broad Street corridor. Diverters are particularly effective in reducing auto speeds by shifting
a significant proportion of vehicular through traffic off Broad Street completely. The speed
cushions proposed for Broad Street south of Mission would be expected to provide similar traffic
calming benefits to the existing speed humps on Broad Street north of Mission, where prevailing
speeds are 10-15% lower than the southern segment of Broad Street. It is reasonable to expect
the neighborhood traffic circle proposed for the Broad/Mountain View intersection to provide
similar speed reduction benefits as the traffic circles recently constructed along south Chorro
Street, where prevailing vehicle speeds have been reduced by 10-15%. Ultimately, the
combination of these proposed design elements is anticipated to provide moderate-to-high
reductions in traffic speeds, supporting a low-stress bicycling environment.
Concept Alternative 2
Unlike the traditional bicycle boulevard proposed in Concept Alternative 1, the improvements in
Concept Alternative 2 are not necessarily focused on improving the bicycling environment by
Recommended Bicycle Boulevard Traffic Speeds
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 22
significantly reducing speeds or volumes on a single street. Instead, the proposed concept
reallocates the street width on Broad and Chorro to provide separation between the bicycle
facilities and the vehicular travel lanes. Broad Street will be converted to one-way southbound
with parking on both sides of the street, a southbound buffered bike lane, sidewalk bulbouts and
installation of speed cushions south of Mission. Addition of the southbound bike lane reduces
high-street conflicts between southbound bicyclists and vehicles. The speed cushions proposed
along Broad Street south of Mission are the primary form of traffic calming used in this design
concept for southbound vehicles. As with Concept Alternative 1, it is reasonable to expect the
proposed speed cushions to provide similar traffic calming benefits to the existing speed humps
north of Mission, potentially reducing speeds for southbound vehicles by 10-15% south of
Mission.
Chorro Street will be converted to one-way northbound with parking on both sides of the street
and a two-way protected bikeway (“cycle track”) between Lincoln and Meinecke. The
modifications to Chorro Street are not anticipated to provide substantial traffic calming benefits;
however, the protected bicycle facility will provide an ideal low-stress environment for cyclists.
Ultimately, the improvements proposed in Concept Alternative 2 support quality low-stress
bicycling environments for southbound Broad and in both directions on Chorro Street. These
measures are anticipated to reduce vehicle speeds on Broad—albeit less so compared to
Concept Alternative 1. Vehicle speeds along Chorro Street are anticipated to remain similar to
existing conditions.
Concept Alternative 3
The speed cushions, chicanes and traffic circle proposed in Concept Alternative 3 are
anticipated to reduce vehicle speeds along the Broad Street corridor, and along Chorro Street.
Chicanes are particularly effective in reducing auto speeds by narrowing the road and requiring
vehicles to navigate a series of S-shaped curves at reduced speeds. The speed cushions
proposed for Broad Street south of Mission and along Chorro Street would be expected to
provide similar traffic calming benefits to the existing speed humps on Broad Street north of
Mission, where prevailing speeds are 10-15% lower than the southern segment of Broad Street.
It is reasonable to expect the neighborhood traffic circle proposed for the Broad/Mountain View
intersection to provide similar speed reduction benefits as the traffic circles recently constructed
along south Chorro Street, where prevailing vehicle speeds have been reduced by 10-15%.
Ultimately, the combination of these proposed design elements is anticipated to provide
moderate-to-high reductions in traffic speeds along Broad and Chorro, supporting a low-stress
bicycling environment.
Other Project Components
Other proposed project features (as described in the Project Description section) would have a
negligible impact on traffic calming.
Volume Management
Each concept alternative has been assessed to consider the potential to reduce traffic volumes
along Broad Street. The desired maximum two-way traffic volumes along a bicycle boulevard
are 1,500-3,000 veh/day, while volumes under 1,500 veh/day provide an ideal low-stress route.
This would equate to a maximum one-way volume of approximately 900-1,800 veh/day, with an
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 23
ideal volume of 900 veh/day or less. See Table 2 for volume estimates for each project
alternative.
No Build Alternative
No change from existing. Existing
volumes along Broad Street range from
2,930 veh/day south of Mission to 4,200
veh/day north of mission. These
conditions exceed the volumes
recommended for a bicycle boulevard.
Concept Alternative 1
The improvements proposed in Concept
Alternative 1 are anticipated to decrease
vehicle volumes along Broad Street to
approximately 700-800 veh/day. This will
provide for an ideal low-stress bicycling
route.
Concept Alternative 2
Instead of focusing on reducing volumes on a single street, as with Concept Alternative 1, the
one-way couplet orientation proposed in Concept Alternative 2 is anticipated to more evenly
distribute the traffic demand between Broad and Chorro Streets. Total vehicular traffic volumes
on Broad Street are projected to increase to approximately 4,500-4,600 vehicles per day (up
20% on average), while traffic volumes on Chorro Street would decrease to approximately
5,000-5,100 vehicles per day (down 15% on average). The street modifications proposed under
this alternative would separate bicyclists from vehicular travel lanes on both Broad Street and
Chorro Street, providing dedicated right-of-way for bicyclists in the southbound direction on
Broad, and in both directions on Chorro.
Concept Alternative 3
The traffic calming improvements proposed in Concept Alternative 3 may create a less desirable
route for cut-through traffic, but are ultimately are anticipated to result in a negligible change in
traffic levels on Broad and Chorro Streets in the near-term. Volumes on Broad Street will likely
remain similar to existing (No Build) levels, which exceed the ideal range for a low-stress bicycle
boulevard. However, with the ultimate implementation of the proposed closure of the Highway
101/Broad Street ramps, the resulting volumes on Broad Street are estimated to fall within the
acceptable range for an effective bicycle boulevard (< 3,000 vehicles/day).
Other Project Components
Other proposed project features (as described in the Project Description section) would have a
negligible impact on traffic volume management.

Bicycle Level of Service
Planning-level bicycle levels of service4 were calculated for AM and PM peak hour conditions at
key roadway links along Broad Street and Chorro Street. Potential project impacts are evaluated
considering the City’s multimodal level of service policy, which establishes a bicycle level of
service objective of LOS B, with a minimum acceptable level of service standard of LOS D.
Bicycle levels of service are summarized in Table 6 and results for existing “No Build”
conditions, Concept Alternative 1 and Concept Alternative 2 are discussed below.

No Build Alternative
As shown in Table 6, the study segments of Broad Street and Chorro Street currently operate at
LOS C and LOS D. These segments meet the City’s minimum bicycle level of service standards
(LOS D), but fall short of the City’s level of service objective (LOS B).
Concept Alternative 1
As shown in Table 6, the improvements proposed in Concept Alternative 1 would improve the
bicycle levels of service along Broad Street to LOS A or B. The bicycle level of service along
Chorro Street would remain at LOS D, except for the northbound link between Meinecke and
Mission, which is projected to degrade to unacceptable LOS E during the PM peak hour.
Without the northbound bike lane proposed for Chorro between Lincoln and Center as part of
the Almond Street “Wiggle” component, the bicycle level of service grade on Chorro between
Lincoln and Mission would also degrade to unacceptable LOS E.
4 Levels of service were calculated based on 2010 HCM methodologies, consistent with the methods established in
the City’s Traffic Impact Study Guidelines. As with autos, Bicycle levels of service are defined using letter grades
“A” through “F”, with LOS A representing an ideal, low‐stress bicycling environment, and LOS F representing poor,
high‐stress bicycling conditions.
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 25
Concept Alternative 2
As shown in Table 6, the improvements proposed in Concept Alternative 2 would provide for
LOS C bicycle level of service on Broad Street in the southbound direction. No bicycle access
would be provided on Broad Street in the northbound direction. The two-way protected bikeway
proposed for Chorro Street would improve the bicycle levels of service from LOS D to LOS A
between Meinecke and Lincoln.
Concept Alternative 3
As shown in Table 6, the near-term traffic calming improvements proposed in Concept
Alternative 3 would provide minor improvements to the bicycle levels of service along Broad
Street. All study segments of Broad Street would operate within the City’s established minimum
bicycle level of service standard (LOS D), but only one segment would operate at the City’s
level of service objective (LOS B), and only during one of the two peak hour periods analyzed.
With the planned long-term closure of the Highway 101/Broad Street ramps, the bicycle levels of
service on Broad Street would be expected to improve to LOS C or better for both AM and PM
peak hours. The bicycle level of service along Chorro Street would remain at LOS D in the
short-term and long-term under this alternative.
Other Project Components
For the purposes of this assessment, bicycle levels of service were not evaluated for other
project components.
VII. Pedestrian/Streetscape Environment
Each concept alternative was assessed with respect to impacts on the pedestrian/streetscape
environment, considering how effective the design is with improving pedestrian connectivity,
accessibility and comfort, street lighting and the design’s potential to include Green Street
elements.
Pedestrian Connectivity/Accessibility/Comfort
Each project alternate was assessed to evaluate the effectiveness of the alternative’s potential
to improve the pedestrian environment along Broad Street. The assessment considered the
ability of each alternative to eliminate gaps in the sidewalk network, provide ADA-compliant
pedestrian access, improve safety/comfort at pedestrian crossings, and enhance the overall
appeal of Broad Street as a safe, inviting pedestrian environment.
No Build Alternative
No change from existing. The existing pedestrian environment lacks complete sidewalks and
accessible curb ramps are missing at several intersections along the Broad Street corridor.
Concept Alternative 1, 2 & 3
All concept alternatives include improvements to complete gaps in the sidewalk network,
provide ADA-compliant curb ramps at all intersections currently lacking them, and add sidewalk
bulbouts at several locations to improve pedestrian crossing safety/comfort. Concept Alternative
1 is anticipated to provide the most substantial improvement to the pedestrian experience along
Broad Street by significantly lowering vehicle volumes and speeds along this street. However,
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 26
by diverting traffic to Chorro Street, the pedestrian environment along Chorro will be less
desirable.
Concept Alternative 2 is anticipated to benefit the pedestrian experience along Broad and
Chorro Streets by reducing the number of conflicting vehicle travel lanes, which reduces the
number of pedestrian-vehicle conflict points and pedestrian crossing distance at intersections.
Concept Alternative 3 is anticipated to benefit the pedestrian experience along Broad and
Chorro by focusing on speed reduction and crossing improvements along both of these
corridors.
Other Project Components
The Broad Street to Foothill Connection Option A would provide substantial benefit to
pedestrian connectivity by providing a formal connection between Ramona and Foothill
Boulevard. This connection would be particularly effective considering the planned SRTS
crossing improvements at the Foothill/Ferrini intersection.
Other project components identified in this assessment would provide negligible benefits to
pedestrian accessibility/connectivity.
Street Lighting
No Build Alternative
No change from existing. Existing street lighting is limited along Broad Street, resulting in poorly
lit conditions in for bicyclists and pedestrians at night.
Concept Alternative 1, 2 & 3
For the purposes of this assessment, street lighting improvements are not described as features
specific to either project alternative. Street lighting improvements, as discussed under “Other
Project Components” below can be considered for either concept alternative.
Other Project Components
Street lighting improvements are proposed for Broad Street and Chorro Street to improve the
night environment for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers. Proposed enhancements would consist
of adding an additional five (5) cobra-head LED street lights to Broad Street and an additional
four (4) street lights to Chorro Street mounted to existing power poles. The additional lighting
will be added at locations so that the corridor lighting as a whole is consistent with current City
standards.
Potential for Green Street Elements
No Build Alternative
No change from existing.
Concept Alternative 1, 2 & 3
Each concept alternative was reviewed for the potential to incorporate green street features,
such as bioswales, rain gardens or other landscaping/plantings. These features can provide
benefits such as improved drainage, filtering of stormwater runoff, improved air quality, reduced
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 27
heat island effect and a more pleasant and visually appealing streetscape. The potential
stormwater management benefits are particularly important considering the proximity of the
bicycle boulevard to Stenner Creek and Old Garden Creek.
All three concept alternatives incorporate features that could be designed to accommodate
green street elements—primarily within sidewalk bulbouts. Concept Alternative 2 and 3 offer
slightly more opportunities for these features as these concepts include additional bulbout
locations and raised islands (chicanes in Alt. 3) compared to Concept Alternative 1.
Other Project Components
Potential for green street features are negligible with the other project components discussed in
this assessment.
VIII. Overall Performance
Achieves Overall Project Goal & Objectives
A qualitative assessment is provided for each concept alternative to assess the overall potential
to support the project goal and objectives, which are summarized as follows:
Project Goal – Provide a safe, convenient, low-stress through route serving bicyclists
and pedestrians of all ages and skill levels between the downtown core and Foothill
Boulevard.
Project Objectives
o Identity/Branding – Utilize signage, markings and other elements to provide a
bicycle boulevard with a look and feel that is unique from surrounding streets to
communicate that bicycle travel has a priority on the roadway. These design
features should encourage people to walk and bike along this route, while
alerting drivers to expect to encounter people bicycling.
o Traffic Calming – Incorporate design features that bring motor vehicle speeds
closer to those of bicyclists, improving the safety and comfort of the bicycle and
pedestrian environment.
o Volume Management – Consider measures to reduce or discourage motor
vehicle thru traffic along the boulevard by physically or operationally
reconfiguring access along street segments and intersections. Such treatments
should consider potential impacts to emergency vehicles and neighborhood
access.
o Pedestrian Safety & Comfort – Incorporate design features along the boulevard
that provide a continuous, accessible, low-stress environment for pedestrians of
all ability levels.
o Crossing Enhancement – Improve accessibility, comfort and visibility for
bicyclists and pedestrians crossing at intersections.
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 28
No Build Alternative
No change from existing. Traffic volumes and speeds along Broad Street remain above
recommended thresholds for a low-stress bicycle boulevard.
Concept Alternative 1
Concept Alternative 1 is anticipated to strongly support the overall project goal and objectives.
This concept would effectively create a unique identity of Broad Street as a traditional bicycle
boulevard by significantly reducing vehicle speeds and volumes and through unique signage,
pavement markings and features. While motor vehicles would be diverted at several
intersections, bicycle access would be accommodated throughout the corridor with minimal
stops, identifying and encouraging bicycling as the primary mode of transportation on Broad.
Northbound bicyclists experience a slight grade on Broad Street between Center and Mission.
However, anticipated low vehicle volumes and speeds should provide for a relatively
comfortable climb. In addition, the Almond Street “Wiggle” creates unique branding, as it
identifies an informal “local” route that many seasoned bicycle commuters already use to
bypass uphill grades along Broad Street. This provides a less physically-demanding option
northbound between Center and Mission, as it bypasses the slight grade on Broad Street.
Concept Alternative 1 provides improvements that enhance the overall pedestrian environment
along Broad Street by filling in sidewalk gaps, providing accessible curb ramps at intersections,
reducing vehicular traffic volumes adjacent to sidewalks, and providing potential for green street
elements.
Concept Alternative 1 is anticipated to provide strong potential for increased bicycle mode share
on Broad Street by providing a low-stress bicycling environment that feel comfortable to
beginning and experienced riders. Additionally, the placement of traffic diverters along Broad
Street will contribute towards make bicycling along the corridor a quicker and more convenient
mode of transportation compared to motor vehicles, further encouraging bicycle ridership.
It should be noted that while this alternative provides significant benefits to bicycling along
Broad Street, this comes with the trade-off of diverting a significant amount of auto traffic to
Chorro Street. The increase in traffic volumes on Chorro Street would have the potential to
negatively impact neighborhood quality, and conditions for drivers, bicyclists and pedestrians
that continue to use Chorro Street.
Concept Alternative 2
Concept Alternative 2 does not necessarily follow the objectives of a bicycle boulevard, as this
project alternative does not propose a traditional bicycle boulevard where bicyclists share travel
lanes with motorists. Instead, Concept Alternative 2 creates separation between bicycle facilities
on southbound Broad Street—with a buffered bike lane—and in both directions along Chorro
Street—with a two-way protected bikeway (“cycle track”). The addition of a buffered bike lane
on Broad Street provides improved separation from higher-speed vehicular traffic in the
southbound direction, although, northbound access for bicyclists is eliminated. The proposed
two-way protected bikeway on Chorro Street clearly identifies this route as a priority bike
corridor, providing an ideal low-stress bicycling environment where riders are physically

separated from higher-speed vehicle traffic by a buffer area with vertical elements (flex posts
and/or curbing) and an on-street parking lane.
Instead of significantly reducing traffic volumes and speeds along Broad Street only, the
features proposed in Concept Alternative 2 create a more even distribution of vehicular traffic
between Broad and Chorro Streets, while completely separating bicyclists from vehicular travel
lanes. The proposed elements along Broad Street are expected to provide some traffic calming
benefits, although less-so compared to the traffic diverters and traffic circle proposed in Concept
Alternative 1.
As with Concept Alternative 1, Concept Alternative 2 provides improvements that enhance the
overall pedestrian environment along Broad Street by filling in sidewalk gaps, providing
accessible curb ramps at intersections, reducing vehicular traffic volumes adjacent to sidewalks,
and providing potential for green street elements. Compared to Alternative 1, this concept
includes additional locations with sidewalk bulbouts, which provides increased potential for
green street elements. In addition, this alternative benefits the pedestrian environments along
both Broad Street and Chorro Street by reducing the number of vehicular travel lanes, which
shortens the crossing distance and number of pedestrian-vehicle conflict points at intersections.
It should be noted that with this concept, additional outreach would be prudent to inform Chorro
Street residents regarding the appropriate position to park on-street adjacent to the cycle track
buffer, and of the importance to look for bicyclists coming from both directions entering/exiting
driveways adjacent to the cycle track.
Ultimately, Concept Alternative 2 will significantly improve access and comfort for bicyclists
traveling on Chorro Street with the addition of a two-way protected bikeway. In other cities
across the country and internationally, the addition of physically-protected bicycle facilities has
demonstrated improved safety for bicyclists, and the ability to attract existing and new riders
who may be interested in bicycling more regularly, but feel unsafe sharing a travel lane or riding
adjacent to higher-speed vehicular traffic. The addition of a buffered bike lane on Broad Street
improves conditions for southbound bicyclists by separating them from vehicular traffic;
however, access for northbound bicyclists is eliminated on this street. Compared to Alternative 1
and 3, this alternative is the most challenging option to implement as an interim “pilot project” for
monitoring due to the significant changes to traffic circulation.
Concept Alternative 3
Concept Alternative 3 is anticipated to moderately support the overall project goal and
objectives in the short-term, with a long-term vision that more completely achieves these
aspirations. This concept would effectively create a unique identity of Broad Street as a
traditional bicycle boulevard in the short-term with traffic calming treatments and through unique
signage, pavement markings and features. With the ultimate closure of the Highway 101/Broad
Street ramps, as proposed by Caltrans, traffic volumes along Broad Street would be reduced to
levels more supportive of a low-stress, priority bicycle route. While this alternative does not
provide the level of immediate benefit to the bicycling environment as achieved in Alternatives 1
and 2, Alternative 3 has less potential to negatively impact neighborhood access and circulation.
Broad Street Bicycle Boulevard – Alternatives Screening Analysis 30
As with Alternative 1, the addition of the Almond Street “Wiggle” creates unique branding, as it
identifies an informal “local” route that many seasoned bicycle commuters already use to
bypass uphill grades along Broad Street. This provides a less physically-demanding option
northbound between Center and Mission, as it bypasses the slight grade on Broad Street, and
traverses lower-volume local streets through this stretch.
Concept Alternative 3 provides improvements that enhance the overall pedestrian environment
along Broad Street by filling in sidewalk gaps, providing accessible curb ramps at intersections,
reducing vehicular traffic speeds adjacent to sidewalks, and providing potential for green street
elements.
Concept Alternative 3 is anticipated to provide only moderate potential for increased bicycle
mode share on Broad Street in the short-term by calming traffic and reducing the uncomfortable
speed differential between high-speed autos and lower-speed bicyclists. These short-term traffic
calming benefits would also be realized by bicyclists who continue to use Chorro Street through
this neighborhood. In the long-term, the anticipated reduction in traffic volumes on Broad Street
with the closure of the Highway 101 ramps will further achieve the goal of a low-stress bicycling
environment with potential to attract additional beginning and experienced riders.
Other Project Components
The proposed Broad Street to Foothill Connection Option A would provide a very comfortable,
low-stress bicycle connection and facilitates a convenient linkage to the future crossing
enhancements at the Foothill/Ferrini intersection planned as part of a parallel SRTS project.
Protected bikeways (“cycle tracks”) and bike paths are very desirable for the beginner/novice
bicyclists as there are minimal if any points of conflict with motor vehicles. There are significant
challenges to implementing this option, with fairly-high costs and uncertainty that the City will
successfully acquire an access agreement through the private LDS Church property.
The Broad Street to Foothill Connection Option B provides another option for an improved
bicycle connection between Broad Street and the Foothill Boulevard corridor. While this
connection would represent an improvement over existing conditions, bicyclists would need to
navigate the intersection of Broad at Foothill, which could be an uncomfortable and challenging
experience for beginner and novice riders. For this reason, this option provides a less direct,
higher-stress bicycling connection to destinations north of Foothill compared to Option A. While
construction costs are anticipated to be lower than with Option A, there will be significant
engineering challenges with the proposed widening of Broad Street approaching the
Broad/Foothill intersection.
The street lighting improvements proposed for Broad and Chorro Streets would improve
nighttime visibility for bicyclists and pedestrians, supporting the objectives of the project to
improve the safety and comfort of the transportation environment for these users.
