Table 5-19: Census Tract 6 Bicycle Improvements

Bicycle Improvements Bicycle recommendations around the Baseline Street at Waterman Avenue bus stops will provide better connectivity to the bus stop, particularly along Baseline Street. The San Bernardino County Non-Motorized Transportation Plan provides a planned network of bicycle facilities throughout the County.

As shown in Figure 5-18, the bus stops are not currently served by an existing bicycle facility; the nearest bicycle facility to the bus stops is a mile to the south on 5th Street. Proposed bicycle facilities are recommended along Baseline Street that will directly serve the bus stops. Other nearby proposed bicycle facilities include a Class II bicycle lane on Mountain View Avenue, and a Class 1 multi-use path on the Mid City Connector that leads to the Santa Ana River Trail.

Where space is available, painted stripe buffers should be installed along existing and planned Class II bicycle lanes. Signage should be considered to provide users destination information and bring attention to changes in roadway conditions.
