APPENDIX B: BIKEWAY PROJECT DESCRIPTIONS
which includes a Little Dry Creek spur, and proposed bikeway along 78th Avenue (Project 79). Project 81: US 36 Bike Trail Segment: Between Turnpike Drive, at Bradburn Boulevard, and the northern border of Westminster, along Highway 36, between 112th Avenue and Wadsworth Boulevard Class/Type: Class I – Shared Use Path Countermeasure(s): Warning signs, striping, and various pavement markings may be appropriate for the few intersections where the proposed shared use path crosses thoroughfare right of ways. In general, underpasses or overpasses would be preferred.

Wayfinding and signing are a key element in branding this route as a regional connection between Denver and Boulder. It will also connect 8 RTD stations along its regional route. In Westminster, it will connect numerous bikeways and key destinations. Project 82: 92nd Avenue Segment: Between Federal Boulevard and Wadsworth Parkway Class/Type: Class II – Curbside Bicycle Lane, Class IIII – Signed Bike Route with Sharrows Countermeasure(s): Peg-a-tracking may be considered through each intersection. Notes: This segment will provide a needed east-west connection along a very busy arterial thoroughfare. This segment is comprised of a curbside bicycle lane between Federal Boulevard and Utica Court. A signed bicycle route with sharrows between Utica Court and Wadsworth Parkway is also proposed. As proposed, this segment will connect to bikeways along the following thoroughfares: Federal Boulevard (Project 44), Lowell Boulevard (Project 7), Yates Street (Project 32), Center City Drive (Project 43), Sheridan Boulevard (Project 45), Bike Highway 36 (Project 81), Westminster Boulevard (Project 83), Pierce Street (Project 84), The Farmers’ High Line Canal Trail, Wadsworth Boulevard (Project 87), Wadsworth Parkway (Project 53), and 92nd Avenue, west of Wadsworth Parkway (Project 37).

Project 83: Harlan Street/Westminster Boulevard Segment: Between 88th Avenue and Church Ranch Boulevard Class/Type: Class II – Curbside Bicycle Lanes Countermeasure(s): Peg-a-tracking may be considered through each intersection.

It will link to the Farmers High Line Canal Trail, proposed bikeways along 88th Avenue (Project 29) and Westcliff Parkway (Project 46), as well as the Waterpointe-Bellio Open Space, the Big Dry Creek Trail, and a proposed sidepath along Church Ranch Boulevard (Project 12). This project requires that those segments already widened to be re-configured to accommodate bicycle lanes, while those not yet widened should include bicycle lanes when they are. Project 84: Pierce Street Segment: Between 88th Avenue and Westcliff Parkway Class/Type: Class II – Curbside Bicycle Lanes Countermeasure(s): Peg-a-tracking may be considered through each intersection.
