Issue Detail: The Del Paso Road Bike Lane Enhancement project is located on Del Paso Road between El Camino Road and East Commerce Way. The project will install enhanced bike lanes, including green bike lanes at specific conflict points, along the corridor. The project is funded through a California Natural Resource Grant.
During the scoping of the project, staff identified the need to make additional improvements outside of the original scope to help increase bicycling safety and comfort. The project evolved to move the bike lane to be adjacent to the sidewalk to decrease the conflict zone at the Interstate 5 (I-5) on ramp, and a bike ramp for westbound bicyclists.
The existing bike lane on eastbound Del Paso Boulevard east of El Centro Road is currently in between two through travel lanes, a bus stop, and an auxiliary lane for the southbound I-5 on-ramp. This creates a conflict zone of approximately 800 feet. The project proposes to shift the bike lane adjacent to the existing sidewalk to minimize conflicts with merging automobile and bus traffic.
