12 Existing Conditions Analysis Existing Bicycle and Pedestrian Infrastructure

13 Existing Conditions Analysis * * Generators of Pedestrian and Bicycle Activity * Events along the River Charles River Basin Bicycle + Pedestrian Study P athways + Bridges

14 Connectivity Gap Analysis Focus Areas

15 Connectivity Gap Analysis Lack of any crosswalks or other direct pedestrian connections across Charles River Road

16 Connectivity Gap Analysis Lack of traffic control on the Watertown side of the North Beacon Street Bridge

17 Connectivity Gap Analysis Lack of ped/bike connections to properties on other side of Soldier Field Road near N. Beacon Bridge

18 Connectivity Gap Analysis Free right turn lanes, poor crosswalk alignment and curb ramps that don t meet standards on Arsenal St Bridge

19 Connectivity Gap Analysis Narrow path along Greenough Boulevard

20 Connectivity Gap Analysis Lack of path connectivity and under-capacity roadway along Greenough Boulevard between Arsenal and Eliot bridges

21 Connectivity Gap Analysis Lack of connectivity from Herter Park to Smith Field and the rest of the Allston neighborhood

22 Connectivity Gap Analysis Difficult crossing from west end of Eliot Bridge to adjacent schools and neighborhoods in Cambridge

23 Connectivity Gap Analysis Difficult crossing of Memorial Drive at Hawthorne Street crosswalk

24 Connectivity Gap Analysis Poor connectivity to and from River St bridge to Allston and path system due to viaduct and pinch point

25 Connectivity Gap Analysis BU Bridge: no access to path system from Boston side

26 Connectivity Gap Analysis Charlesgate: No access to Emerald Necklace through on/off ramps

27 Connectivity Gap Analysis Charlesgate: No access to Emerald Necklace through on/off ramps

28 Connectivity Gap Analysis Lack of connectivity at each end of the Longfellow Bridge

29 Linear Connectivity Gap Analysis Overgrowth on paths Broken up pavement Goat paths

30 Toolbox of Pedestrian Facilities Increase connectivity Provide safe, high visibility crossings Provide accessible crossings (ADA) Design for all users Traffic calming to increase safety Provide amenities to increase attractiveness

31 Sidewalks and Paths Multi- Use Path Accessway Sidewalk Connectivity

32 Pedestrian Crossings Curb Radii Reduction Curb Cuts Bulbouts

33 Pedestrian Crossings Advanced Yield Line Advanced Stop Bar High Visibility Crosswalks

34 Pedestrian Crossings Flashing Beacon RRFB Signage HAWK

35 Median Refuge Islands Raised Crosswalk Porkchop

36 Pedestrian Crossing Signals Countdown Signal Push Button

37 Pedestrian Scale Lighting Midblock Intersections

38 Streetscape Landscaping Street Furniture and Pedestrian Scale Facades

39 Traffic Calming Chicanes / Chokers Speed Table Speed Feedback Sign

40 Selecting the Right Bicycle Facilities Factors include: Road type (arterial, local street, etc ) Traffic volume Speed Traffic mix (e.g., truck %) Expected users skill, age, volume, destinations Road conditions, space, intersections, parking demand Safety and crash data

41 Bike Lanes Minimum of 3000 ADT for typical application Install with new roadway Pave shoulder/widen road Reduce travel lane or parking lane widths Remove travel lanes
