Provide multi-use path connections to the West Bank Bike Path at McClure, Rasor, <br />Hansen and Fir: connect all multi-use path West Bank Bike Path linkages directly to <br />improved River Road crossings and provide clear signage. <br />The design of multi-use pathways should be context sensitive and can vary from location <br />to location. For example, Fir Lane could remain a narrow street without curbs and <br />sidewalks where pedestrians, bicycles and vehicles share the same travel path. <br />Pedestrian zones could be identified by different pavement treatments. At Hansen, the <br />pathway could be integrated into public open space. At Rasor, the pathway could be <br />designed and integrated into future mixed use development. <br />Commercial area vehicular access points on lower River Road: <br />Wherever redevelopment occurs along River Road, minimize the number of direct vehicular <br />access points on to and off of River Road through use of shared driveways or provision of access <br />via side-streets. In the large commercially-zoned area on the east side of River Road between <br />Park and Hansen, permit a maximum of two direct vehicular access points to and from River <br />Road. <br />Next Steps and Implementation <br />Implementation strategies and recommended actions including key next steps toward <br />completion and implementation of the Lower River Road Multi-Modal Transportation <br />Improvement Concepts include: <br />A <br />Prepare a Preliminary Design Plan for Lower River Road Multi-modal Transportation <br />Improvement Concepts and EmX Alternatives. Continue to work with LTD to coordinate <br />and leverage the planning and design processes for River Road and EmX improvements. <br />
