II.TRANSPORTATION <br />Streets in River Road and Santa Clara have evolved over time from country lanes to what they are today. <br />A mixture of old and new streets create gaps in sidewalks, a significant safety concern for both young <br />and old. Review the street designs below, and choose the designs that you think would best serve River <br />Road and Santa Clara in the future. <br />Q2. As our neighborhoods grow, how should the streets evolve to improve safety, assist people that <br />are walking and biking, and better connect our neighborhoods? <br />Check () as many boxes as you want and tell us why. <br /> a. Maintain the existing neighborhood <br />streets as they are currently designed, <br />with many having no sidewalks. <br /> b. Maintain existing streets, and when <br />improvements are necessary, streets have <br />open swales for natural drainage, sidewalk <br />on one side, street trees, and wider areas <br />provided occasionally for parking (“parking <br />bays”). <br /> c. Maintain existing streets, and when <br />improvements are necessary, provide <br />sidewalks on both sides, curb & gutter, <br />on-street parking, street trees, bicycle <br />lanes on busy streets, and piped <br />stormwater. <br /> d. None of the above. My preferred street design solution is below or on the back. <br />November 19, 2018, Work Session – Item 2
