Bus Stop Safety Improvement Plan
Bus Stop Improvements The bus stops located on Baseline Road at Riverside Avenue are located adjacent to retail land use and supports residential areas less than half a mile away. As shown in Figure 5-7, the eastbound bus stop on Baseline Road is currently missing a shelter but has the adequate eight-foot space available for a shelter and landing pad with the existing sidewalk. Plans to construct this stop are in place and are to be completed by 2021. Currently, the four-foot sidewalk is obstructed by a bus stop bench requiring people to walk around the bench into the grass planter strip. Nearby street lights and an Omnitrans solar pole mounted light provide illumination. Bus stop improvements to be made to all bus stops at the intersection.
