Exhibit 2 shws many f these crashes invlved a pedestrian. This indicates a pedestrian stepping int the radway r int the crsswalk may have cntributed t a rear-end crash. In additin, 16 pedestrians have been directly invlved in crashes alng the crridr. Exhibit 3 shws the lcatin f the pedestrian invlved r pedestrian injured crashes thrughut the crridr. This exhibit reveals the majrity f pedestrian invlved r injured crashes ccurred between MP 2.15 2.24 and between MP 2.35 2.39, which crrespnd t the unmarked and marked crssings at 28 th Avenue and 28 th Place, as well as the marked crssing at 31 st Avenue.

Several times during field bservatins, the RSA team witnessed situatins in which ne driver yielded t the pedestrian but the secnd same-directin appraching driver failed t see the pedestrian and yield. In additin, subsequent appraching drivers ften failed t understand why the first vehicle was stpped. The RSA team identified the fllwing issues cntributing t pedestrian-invlved and pedestrianinjured crashes: Lcatin f pedestrian crssings Sign visibility Several pedestrian crssings were lcated dwnstream frm transit stps, as shwn in Exhibit 4. This placement results in a stpped bus at the transit stp smetimes blcking a driver s view f a crssing pedestrian. The visibility and reflectivity f signs, including pedestrian crssing signs, was restricted by street trees, as shwn in Exhibit 5 and Exhibit 6. The tree canpies extend belw the signs further restricting visibility f the signs. The limited visibility f signs may cntribute t subsequent appraching drivers failing t see regulatry and/r warning signs and yield t the pedestrian. Kittelsn & Assciates, Inc. 8

Rad Safety Audit Reprt September 2014 Pwell Bulevard: MP 1.76 t 2.49 The signals cycle length als appeared t influence driver behavir alng the crridr. The cycle bserved at the signal at Pwell Bulevard/26 th Avenue during the afternn peak hur appeared t allw apprximately 30 secnds f green time, per cycle, t the east-west mvements n Pwell Bulevard. This cngestin and bserved cycle length appeared t lead t impatience amng drivers; the RSA team bserved drivers running the red lights at traffic signals t make it thrugh the signal during the cycle. This impatience and cycle length may als cntribute t the rear-end crashes alng the crridr as drivers start t prceed frward and then have t stp sner than they expect.

Turning mvement crashes accunted fr 15 percent f reprted crashes. Tgether, turning mvement and angle crashes accunted fr 18 percent f reprted crashes. Exhibit 17 shws the lcatin f the turning mvement and angle crashes thrughut the crridr. The highest frequency f these crashes ccurred at the three signalized intersectins. Three f the five bicycle crashes reprted n the crridr were turning mvement r angle crashes and ccurred at the Pwell Bulevard/26 th Avenue intersectin. The traffic signals at Pwell Bulevard/21 st Avenue and Pwell Bulevard/33 rd Avenue have permitted left-turn phases n all appraches. The signal at Pwell Bulevard/26 th Avenue has prtected left-turn phases fr Pwell Bulevard and permitted left-turn mvements fr the 26 th Avenue appraches. With these permitted left-turn phases, drivers may be cncentrating n finding a gap in traffic t prceed thrugh the intersectin withut lking at crssing pedestrians wh may be in their path. The RSA team bserved sme drivers running red-lights after waiting thrugh a cycle and nt finding a gap in traffic.

Rad Safety Audit Reprt September 2014 Pwell Bulevard: MP 1.76 t 2.49 Issue: Number f Access Pints and Types f Land Uses The study crridr is surrunded by a mixture f land uses including a high schl, residential areas, fast fd restaurants, a brewery, htel, and a bwling alley. There are many access pints fr these businesses alng the crridr. Sme parcels have multiple access pints nt Pwell Bulevard. Sme f these access pints verlap with pedestrian crssing medians, as illustrated in Exhibit 19. There is a tw-way, left-turn lane lcated thrughut the length f the study area. The RSA team bserved difficulty fr drivers making left-turns frm driveways and side streets due t limited sight distance (due t hrizntal curves, vertical curves, and buildings), as shwn in Exhibit 20, as well as the appraching grades n side streets. The crash histry revealed 13 f the 351 crashes alng the crridr ccurred at a driveway and/r alley. Hwever, the distractin f drivers caused by many access pints in cnjunctin with pedestrian crssings, pedestrians n the sidewalk, and bicycles n the sidewalk r radway, as illustrated in Exhibit 21, may cntribute t the rear-end crashes in the vicinity f the driveways.

Issue: Lack f Prtectin fr Bicycle Crssings There were five reprted crashes invlving a bicyclist between January 2008 and September 2013. Of these crashes, ne was a rear-end, tw were turning-mvement crashes, and tw were angle crashes. One ccurred near the Pwell Bulevard/21 st Avenue intersectin and fur ccurred at the Pwell Bulevard/26 th Avenue intersectin; 26 th Avenue has three-ft-wide striped bicycle lanes and bike bxes in the nrthbund and suthbund directins. The majrity f bike crashes invlved bicyclists traveling thrugh the intersectin (nrth r suth) and a vehicle making a turning mvement. Pwell Bulevard has limited right-f-way available fr prviding bicycle facilities, and few bicyclists were bserved riding east-west alng Pwell Bulevard; sme rde n the sidewalks t get t their destinatins n Pwell Bulevard frm the nrth-suth bike rutes. Bicyclists must crss Pwell Bulevard while traveling nrth-suth in the area. While bicyclists were bserved crssing at signalized intersectins, sme used the unsignalized pedestrian crssings due t their rigin-destinatin rutes (shrtest paths) that have limited prtectin.

Lcatin: Pwell Bulevard & 21 st Avenue Pwell Bulevard/21st Avenue is a signalized intersectin with a predminant suthbund left turn mvement and relatively high bicycle vlumes traveling nrthbund and suthbund during the cmmute hurs. There are relatively high pedestrian crssing vlumes. The suthbund leftturning vehicles cnflict with bicycle and pedestrian crssings. The visibility f the crsswalk delineatin (at this signal) was limited due t pavement wear. 21 st Avenue has single lane appraches and lacks bicycle lanes, as shwn in Exhibit 29. Dented signal ples, as shwn in Exhibit 30, reveal vehicles that are likely trucks that have struck the ples while making turning maneuvers. The signal has permitted left-turn phases and field bservatins revealed drivers having difficulty finding a gap, as well as lking fr pedestrians in the crsswalk t make a left turn frm Pwell Bulevard. In additin, the suthbund and/r nrthbund left-turns blck sight distances fr ncming traffic, which als makes it difficult t find a gap. Althugh there are bicycle detectin symbls in the pavement n the nrth and suth appraches, the RSA team culd nt determine whether the bicyclists triggered the signal every time. Crash data revealed a high number f turning mvement crashes ccurred at this intersectin, with many f thse invlving eastbund left-turning vehicles. Several pedestrian crashes ccurred with turning vehicles. In additin, several crashes were nrthbund right-turning vehicles clliding with eastbund thrugh vehicles, ptentially due t limited sight distance and right-turns n red. Kittelsn & Assciates, Inc. 22

The intersectin crash histry shwed a cmbinatin f rear-end crashes and turning mvement crashes. Several crashes invlved pedestrians and bicyclists. Sme f the intersectin cnflicts may be assciated with the signal timing and signal cycle lengths. The RSA team bserved cycle lengths f apprximately 60 secnds during the afternn peak hurs that appear undesirable cmpared t similar crridrs within the metrplitan area. In additin, the team bserved vehicles running the red lights at the end f left-turn phases n the east-west mainline mvements, likely due t impatience assciated with the lng queues.

Because pedestrians crss at this lcatin, adding a marked crssing at 28 th Avenue shuld be cnsidered. The lcatin f transit stps needs t be included in the crssing evaluatin, because crssing lcatins need t be cnsidered relative t transit stps. In additin, if bike lanes are remved frm 26 th Avenue as presented as an ptin with the 26 th Avenue suggestins, a bicycle crssing will need t be cnsidered further east f 26 th Avenue. The RSA Team cnsidered a variety f ptins befre arriving at tw suggestins fr this sectin f the crridr. The tw ptins presented reflect thse that the RSA team felt wuld best address the issues f varius users in this sectin. Sme f the ptins cnsidered were nt suggested due t cncerns abut bicyclist expectatins, cnfusin, and cnflicts with radway mvements. The 20 s Bikeway prject suggested an ptin f creating a suthbund bicycle lane n 26 th Avenue in cnjunctin with a bicycle bulevard n 28 th Avenue (functining as a bicycle cuplet with 26 th Avenue suthbund and 28 th Avenue nrthbund). This was nt included in the recmmendatins fr several reasns: The team discussed that bicyclists are unlikely t take a different rute nrthbund and suthbund when vehicles travel bth directins n bth radways and 28 th Avenue prvides an ptin fr bicyclists t travel bth directins n the same rute.
