However, it should be noted that phasing the project over multiple contracts would increase the overall cost of the work due to multiple mobilizations of the contractors. City Staff does not foresee any risks that would change the scope, schedule and cost of the Project. The Project is completely within City right-of-way, and we have fully evaluated all locations for feasibility. A project Study Report is not required for this effort. Rancho Cordova City council approved this project along with the completion of the Bicycle Master Plan in March of 2011. Preliminary design was completed at that time. The City of Rancho Cordova held several bicycle workshops to give community members the opportunity for input on all projects in the City s Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan process. Through additional outreach through groups such as the Bicycle advocates of Rancho Cordova (BARC), the public will be allowed to comment on this and future Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Projects. The Project will provide connections for our existing community that serve low income and minority populations. Existing populations will be better connected to our newly developing areas and business parks. While we are open to working with the Community Conservation Corps, it is probable that elements of this project will require technical expertise that is not available at the CCC.

S. Bicycle and Pedestrian Program Specific Questions Project Screening for Capital Projects Please respond yes/no (if no, please explain): 1. Is this project included in the Regional Bicycle, Pedestrian and Trails Master Plan as a planned project? Yes 2. Is this project ready for inclusion into the Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program, with project scope and cost? Yes Capital Project Performance Outcomes Please describe how the project supports one or more of the performance outcomes for the programming round. 1. Eliminates Barriers/Closes gaps: The striping and installation of additional signage will complete our well-defined and designated lanes for bicyclists where there are currently gaps that can be confusing to cyclists. Closing gaps in the system will enable the City to realize our overall Class II bike system that will provide better connectivity in existing neighborhoods providing good access for all residents that need to cross barriers such as the Folsom South Canal and Highway 50 and providing critical access to the American River Parkway. 2. Connects to/within activity centers: The Project will help to improve connections to and within activity centers including private and public schools, neighborhood and regional parks, transit stations and commercial centers. The Class II Bike Lanes will make it possible for youth and adults to more easily reach their destination by creating a citywide system that provides access to nearly all residents and workers within a quarter of a mile of their homes or work. 3. Increases the number of bicycle and walking trips (reduces Vehicle Miles Traveled): The striping and signage will allow bicyclists to gain ease of travel along the streets, which will encourage the community to choose alternative forms of transportation. Increasing city-wide Class II bike lane mileage by about 20 percent will eliminate systematic barriers to travel that discourage travel. We anticipate that system use would double or grow even higher because the trip rout will be completed. Our current commuter mode share is 0.9 percent on bicycle and we are projecting an increase to 3 percent as we move to complete the overall system. 4. Improves safety and security for bicyclists and pedestrians: Rancho Cordova has the second highest concentration of jobs in the Sacramento region and includes major commercial corridors along Folsom Boulevard and Sunrise Boulevard. These facts illuminate opportunities for mode shifts and also reveal the rush of travel needs during peak periods. Completion of the Class II system will address safety and security concerns by providing a complete trip opportunity for cyclists that will have a clearly identified space on the streets and by eliminating some auto trips, taking a small bite out of our congested peak periods.

Selection Considerations 1. Goals Capital Project Goals Goal 1: Provide connections within the central business districts. Again, the City of Rancho Cordova business district has the second high concentration of jobs in the Sacramento region. The Class II Bike Lanes will complete access for residents in our riverside area making connections across Folsom Boulevard and Highway 50 and will provide better connections for residents outside the City who wish to access our business community from the American River Bike Trail. We anticipate this project will greatly increase the number of bicycling commuters in the City. Goal 2: Provide connections to regional and local public transit systems, at stops, stations and terminals. Improving access to light rail along Folsom Boulevard will greatly enhance the ability of our residents to choose non-auto trips both within the community and to points outside the community. In addition, commuters and residents will be able to more easily access Rancho Cordovan stops in our business district and other RT bus stops throughout the community. Goal 3: Provide connections within, through or to regional and local activity centers. The City will install Class II Bike Lanes along roads that connect activity centers including private and public school, neighborhood and regional parks and commercial centers for shopping. Commuters will be able to travel safely to activity centers for leisure or necessity. Families will be more inclined to bike instead of drive to recreational activity centers where the bike ride may be incorporated into the overall events of the day. Commuters will also have better connections to our regional Business Parks. Goal 4: Fill in gaps on existing, planned or proposed bicycle or pedestrian routes, including intercommunity routes. The City s Class II system plan increases Class II centerline route mileage by about 13 miles from 54 existing centerline miles. Upon completion, many cycling trips that have gaps today will be completed making critical connections for all of our community from Mather Airport to the American River Parkway. Goal 5: Improve the safety and security of walking and bicycling. Once the City has completed the Project, the bike lanes will help to make vehicle commuters more aware of both bicyclists and designated bicycle areas along the roadway. By creating a boundary between the road and bike lanes, drivers will be more aware of the presence of bike lane and will drive outside of the designated while line. Driver awareness is one of our city s most critical cultural perspectives that must be changed. Non-capital Project and Programs Goals Goal 1: Encourage biking and walking through public information, education and awareness.. This is a capital project; however, the City of Rancho Cordova is also involved in several bicycle awareness Bicycle & Pedestrian Funding Guidelines 2012 P a g e 6
programs and is reaching out through the Bicycling Advocates for Rancho Cordova, school districts and neighborhood associations to raise the profile of cycling activity in the City. These programs are described in our recently adopted Bicycle Master Plan, March 2011. 2. Project Benefit Estimate b. Qualitative Benefits Methodology This bike system improvement project is one of several projects that will complete the citywide bike system providing more direct connections for bicycling trips and improving safety. This project incrementally reduces accidents, increases ridership, improves health, reduces air quality impacts, decreases auto ADT and congestion, and reduces wear and tear on our pavements. These benefits are difficult to measure for this specific project. We will, however, be able to measure overall gains for all our bike projects as we re-evaluate bicycle mode share in the city through periodic cycling surveys. As mode share increases we will be able to make determinations on all these factors for a city-wide perspective. 3. Commitment to Project The City of Rancho Cordova is committed to the implementation of this project in that it has the approval of the governing body as seen in the attached resolution. The City has an approved plan for implementation of the Project. There are no additional approvals by other jurisdictions or other agencies needed to initiate the construction contract. Environmental clearance is also not required for signal modifications on city owned equipment within city owned right-of-way. T.
