Census Tract 4

Barton Road at Walin Street

Advertisement

Selection Results The Barton Road at Walin Street bus stops are located in southern Colton. The bus stops can be located on Barton Road and Washington Street, which are main thoroughfares to Interstate 215 and commercial land uses along Washington Street. The immediate surrounding land uses are almost exclusively single- and multi-family uses. The bus stops were selected within this Census Tract due to the lack of boarding area, seating, shelter, lighting, sidewalks and curb ramps. The Barton Road at Walin Street bus stop is located adjacent to a vacant parcel with an unmaintained sidewalk segment that does not connect to the bus stop. There have been no reported crimes near the bus stop.

Pedestrian Improvements Pedestrian recommendations near the Barton Road and Walin Street bus stops are intended to provide safe crossing points, and provide a continuous sidewalk to the bus stop. As shown in Figure 5-11, recommended improvements include new sidewalks within half a mile from the bus stop, high-visibility continental crosswalks with lines spacing to avoid wheel paths, curb ramps with truncated domes to ensure safety and access for all users.
