2 #1 Bike City: Minneapolis The unforgiving and frigid city of Minneapolis is the country's top spot to be an urban cyclist. Now we just have to figure out why. Minneapolis is receiving national recognition as a bicycle friendly community. That also results in: o A high level of expectations o Questions about long term operation and maintenance. o Design issues never before contemplated. o Conflicts with maintenance needs Agenda Vision of Protected Bikeways in Minneapolis Oak Street Protected Bike Lane Design and Maintenance General Equipment/procedures Other examples Budgeting Winter Cycling Congress Questions 4 2
3 Vision of Protected Bikeways in Minneapolis 5 Vision of Protected Bikeways in Minneapolis Take your pick: Protected Bike Lane Barrier Separated Bikeway Cycle Track 6 3
4 Why prioritize protected bikeways? 2011 bicycle master plan does not address protected bikeways other than trails 2013 Climate Action Plan calls for 30 miles of on street protected bicycle facilities by 2020 Several protected bikeways were underway 7 Why prioritize protected bikeways? Important tool to increase bicycling in Minneapolis Protected bikeways can extend the experience of biking on a trail to busy city destinations 8 4
5 19 corridors were identified for evaluation Criteria: High Bicycle Demand High Traffic Conflict Good Network Integration (connecting people to destinations) 9 Feasibility Analysis Example corridor from feasibility analysis 10 5
6 Implementation 55 miles of recommended projects Separated into 3 tiers based on priority and implementation opportunities Many projects are already planned and funded new and improved network: 19.4 miles Protected Bikeway Bike Lane Bike Blvd Shared Lane 6

14 Oak Street Protected Bike Lanes Public Works Paving Construction & Bike Ped Group Pilot Project for Physical Barrier/Separator Part of design was to try a true barrier separation Short section precluded a mechanized (slip form or other) installation. Hand forming an option, but ended up going with precast curb stop sections City forces installed the pilot section Oak Street pre project conditions: No bike lanes Oak Street Protected Bike Lanes Public Works Paving Construction & Bike Ped Group Pilot Project for Physical Barrier/Separator City standard today is the (pick your name): Delineator Bollards Channelizer Posts Pedestals Candlesticks Hit sticks Wanted actual barrier 14
15 Oak Street Protected Bike Lanes Public Works Paving Construction & Bike Ped Group Pilot Project for Physical Barrier/Separator The project scope included the milling of asphalt pavement, forming a notch for the precast barrier to be placed into and secured The barrier needed to form a strong rigid foundation and barrier to: Create a solid, safe separation between bikes and vehicles Stand up to the rigors of traffic, and snow and ice control equipment Barrier Construction Precast concrete car stops Dry cast concrete for enhanced durability 10 ft. (3 meters) long 12 in. (304.8 mm) wide 16 in. (406.4) high 1,700 pounds (771 kg) each Delivered to site and off loaded with 3 c.y. (2.3 cubic meter) loader with forks 15
16 Barrier Construction The asphalt pavement was Marked Milled (notched) with a small milling machine The millings shoveled out by hand and Millings removed, and cut completely cleaned Barrier Construction The result was a neat, clean cut in the pavement to set the barrier Straight, with uniform depth 16
17 Barrier Construction Precast car stops set into place with a smaller, tracked machine with forks The result is a clean, uniform and high quality looking, physical barrier Barrier Construction The final step is to place concrete in the gaps to set the curb stops permanently into place Final end treatments provide the finishing touches 17
18 Barrier Construction Cost Summary 10 foot precast car stops delivered plus misc. materials: $29.50 per foot. Labor and equipment: $21.00 per foot. Total furnished and installed: $50.50 per foot. If more permanent bike barriers of this type are desired, would investigate slip form concrete construction rather than precast car stops, for a potential lower materials estimated cost of $15 per foot, giving a revised total F&I estimated cost of $36 per foot. Protected Bike Lane Maintenance We are talking about Sweeping/cleaning Snow and ice control Not talking about Signing Striping/pavement markings Lighting Pavement maintenance 36 18
19 Summer cleaning Problem: Winter sand and debris migrate to the gutters and settle between the delineators in the buffer zones 37 Summer cleaning In many cases, standard street sweepers fit and can maneuver between the tube delineators, or extend or retract brooms to fit May require special trips or multiple passes, leading to extra time or costs Many on street bike lanes swept weekly, and plan that LOS for Cycle Tracks 38 19
20 Summer cleaning May also need alternative equipment and procedures. Sometimes you can purchase what might work, otherwise field staff come up with ingenious solutions. Leaf Buncher created by subbing bristles for snowplow cutting edge. Broom and pan attachment. 39 Summer cleaning Looking at different equipment; either what you have, or new ideas. Skid steer with broom. Small regenerative air sweeper demo 40 20
21 Winter Maintenance Challenges Lessons Learned How we are adjusting New equipment and procedures Budgeting Etc. 41 Winter Maintenance Two way bike lane allows for the use of a standard pick up Can just barely maneuver the Washington Street entrance, but could get challenging with large snowfall. Curb separated section easier to maintain 42 21
22 Winter Maintenance Two boulevard conditions South end allows for snow storage in boulevard North end, sidewalk adjacent to curb. Little storage, may need removal operations Sidewalk crews throw snow into bike lanes 43 Winter Maintenance Conflicts Sidewalk crews push snow into bike lanes 44 22
23 Winter Maintenance Plowing the parking lanes? It s rare that buffer zone is available for cleaning. People must walk over snow windrow to pay parking meter 45 Winter Maintenance What do I do now?! We can just fit down the two way protected lane with the pick up and plow, but crew and bike conflicts can happen
24 Winter Maintenance Level of Service discrepancy Bare pavement harder to attain in bike lanes. Bikes don t have the volumes or power to get to bare pavement in same time frame as vehicles. 47 Protected Bike Lane Maintenance Equipment 48 24
25 Articulating snow break v plow helps in plowing around delineators day and night! Removing Snow as needed to maintain widths Windrow removal with blowers and loaders 25
26 Winter Maintenance Sometimes equipment won t fit Might be on just part of the facility requiring a special trip 51 Brooms and blowers 26
27 Protected Bike Lane Maintenance Equipment Bridge and bike lane clearing equipment Snow and ice control 53 Pretreating / Anti icing 27
28 Other Facilities Examples Plymouth Bridge 55 Another Parked car Protected Bike Lane First of a kind in MPLS, installed several years ago downtown Over time, it turned out to not be liked by business owners, or even bikers Being reconfigured in 2016 to put cars against the curb and buffered bike lane between cars and traffic, while sacrificing another driving lane 28
29 Bike Lane Maintenance Budgeting All new to us; just beginning to gain enough experience to accurately create unit costs Mayor and Council have accepted that you need to fund long term o&m of new inventory Have been funding new equipment and ongoing maintenance for new bike lanes. Different rates for different facilities If you want to do this Level of Service goals you have to fund this. 57 How are we doing? Are our efforts providing results? Local Fair Trade/Organic Coffee distributor: Peace Coffee Sent us a lovely letter of thanks (and a couple pounds of coffee!) 58 29

31 Winter Cycling Congress The 4 th Annual Winter Cycling Congress in Minneapolis, MN February 2, 2016 Three day conference including lectures, educational sessions, workshops and riding tours Approximately 400 international attendees 61 Winter Cycling Congress Local host Committee organized the event. Co chair was a Contributing Director of Nice Ride MN, our local bike share program Organized home stays for traveling delegates Created bike sharing between attendees Arranged riding tours for conference Had very high initial expectations of the City We want every trail and bike lane leading to the conference hotel to look like the World Cup Bicycling Championships were on them! Approximately 400 international attendees City, County, Parks, Universities and other agency professionals Planners, designers, vendors, academics, elected officials, media representatives, organized advocates as well as those from the general public 62 31
32 Winter Cycling Congress Sessions organized into three main themes: Build it Bike it Maintain it Topics ranged from: Winter City experiences Best Practices Maintaining friction Successful advocacy strategies Growing interest in your community Biking equity Year round biking Roundtable discussions Mobile tours 63 Winter Cycling Congress Everything was going fine, and then this hit on Tuesday morning 10 Snowstorm that resulted in our having to declare a Snow Emergency But by the next morning, our crews had everything cleared and opened
33 Winter Cycling Congress There were four scheduled Mobile Tours where groups rode trails and bike lanes. All facilities were open and ridable, with one minor exception; a private development trail. Mobile Tour on Thursday featuring the Oak Street protected bike lanes, and Public Works crews and equipment Winter Cycling Congress Montreal Canada will be the next city to host the Winter Cycling Congress in 2017 as part of its 375th anniversary celebrations
34 So, why NOT bicycling in a winter city? What barriers could there be? If you can surf in Minnesota, why not bike? Hanging ten on Lake Superior s North Shore. 34
