Throughout the community design process, important conversations about public safety, bicycle and pedestrian safety, art, community identity in unincorporated areas, public health, ecology, and stewardship helped inform the ideas about the physical design of the Creekway, but didn’t stop there. The community acknowledged the importance of developing thoughtful partnerships with community groups to provide a sense of communal ownership of the shared spaces. Programming events that activate the Creekway with arts and education opportunties, in turn improve public safety. In addition to thoughtful design techniques that improve visibility, access, and clear wayfinding along the Creekway, a special public safety task force has been developed to connect HARD with all the major public safety agencies that operate along the Creekway to make sure those resources are in coordination as the plans for the Creekway are developed. In order to make this vision a reality, HARD and the County are working together to apply for various grant opportunities, including the Caltrans Active Transportation Program (ATP), Urban Greening grants, and others, and continue to look for partnership opportunities to expand future programming efforts. This master plan document will guide and inform the implementation of the Creekway if and when those grants are awarded, and as other funding becomes available. As designs continue to progress over time, HARD is commited to continuing community engagement throughout the process. Clockwise: Virtual Community Meetings, Youth Ambassadors, and outreach banners hung along the San Lorenzo Creek.

RELATIONSHIP WITH OTHER PLANNING EFFORTS The San Lorenzo Creekway Master Plan is one of HARD’s major trail initiatives and is identified in their overall HARD Trails and Open Space Master Plan which is being planned concurrently with this effort. As shown in Figure 1-5, the trail network within HARD’s juridiction emphasizes pathways that connect the community to key destinations like schools, jobs, and also local and regional recreation areas. HARD and its partners have recognized that this effort is an important opportunity to align the goals and actions of the many jurisdictions that have a role in shaping our communities. During the development of the Creekway planning effort, other bicycle and pedestrian planning efforts by Alameda County and the City of Hayward were coordinated to build a cohesive regional system. The system recommendations, trail standards, and other aspects of those plans have informed this one.

CONNECTIVITY CHALLENGES TODAY Today, there are many challenges to navigating the communities in the greater Hayward area, especially without relying on private cars. The creek itself acts as a barrier between neighborhoods, and many of the thoroughfares that do cross the creek are not bicycle and pedestrian friendly. The design of the San Lorenzo Creekway addresses these challenges by bridging and connecting the communities along and across the creek corridor and providing safe routes to school and other key destinations. Many of the Creekway alignment decisions near challenging street and railroad crossings were determined in consultation with the Alameda County Flood Control District, structural engineers, and bicycle and pedestrian safety advocates to determine the safest design possible given the constraints of existing structures and the desire to provide appropriate travel clearances for all users.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

WRT | S a n L o re n z o C re e k way Mast e r Plan

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT Public engagement has been a cornerstone for the San Lorenzo Creekway process. It has helped to build support and champions for the project throughout the area and has guided the design and programming recommendations. The project team has structured the engagement process so that it has informed the public of the project and its potential benefits, but also to gain a better understanding of the community need and desires. This input has directly been incorporated into the design. The project teams viewed significant public outreach and engagement as integral to the success of both the master plan and the grant application. Shortly after the kickoff of the San Lorenzo Creekway Project, Shelter-in-Place in California was enacted. This presented both challenges and opportunities to be creative with engagement. The project team quickly shifted to new, uncharted

EDEN ON THE MOVE - SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL Students in the Eden area (San Lorenzo, Ashland, Cherryland, and Hayward) frequently face challenges in getting to and from school safely. A history of fatal pedestrian collisions, lack of direct routes, lack of public space, interpersonal harassment, and overall community and school safety concerns deter parents from allowing their children to walk or bike to school. In response, the San Lorenzo Creekway will serve as an anchor for a new innovative and comprehensive Safe Routes to School program -- Eden on the Move. Eden on the Move is a collaboration between HARD, the Alameda County Public Health Department, San Lorenzo and Hayward Unified School Districts, REACH Ashland Youth Center, TransForm, Cycles of Change, and Bike East Bay, designed by students (including Diana and Lorenzo the youth ambassadors), school administrators, parents, county health staff, and other collaborators. It will include multiple years of programming at high-need schools along the Creekway to: 1. Increase biking and walking among students 2. Make the Creekway student-friendly through school-based and community-wide events 3. Create a student-run bike share porgram 4. Improve long-term safety and health through student-driven research and advocacy 5. Create youth employment opportunities Clockwise from the Top: Walking School Bus as part of Walk & Roll, Eden Walk and Roll Fest, Students and their Parent from Cherryland Elementary in a Walk to School Event

VIRTUAL COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS While the primary method for feedback was the online survey, the project team help three virtual workshops via zoom, during the engagement process. Closed captioning provided real time translation in Spanish (the second largest language preference in the study area) during each workshop. The first and second workshop was divided into three parts. The first sought to inform the public on the project and outline some key aspects of the design. The second part gathered a panel of experts from the following organizations to

“I grew up in the Cherryland/Ashland community and think it’s time that we get the same level of green and healthy community features that places like San Lorenzo and Castro Valley have always had. I think it’s fine to have more opportunities for low-income, households of color to have access to a network of community centers and healthy food options/produce at affordable options. The creek way can connect these things together. It’s time. Thank you.”

As a complement to the findings and design guidance developed in the previous community engagement chapter, this chapter compiles many of the high-level conceptual designs that have been informed by that process. The following topics are summarized in this chapter: - San Lorenzo Creekway Plan - Typical Cross-sections - Detailed Creekway sections - Creekway Entrances Plan - Detailed entrances and safe crossings plans - Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety - Public Art - Public Safety - Ecology & History - Connections to Key Destinations - Ideas & Inspiration

TYPICAL CROSS SECTIONS Figure 4-2 : San Lorenzo Creekway Cross Section - Concrete Channel

The majority of the length of San Lorenzo Creek is channelized. The Creekway inhabits the flood control access road areas adjacent to the channel wall.

Figure 4-3: San Lorenzo Creekway Cross Section - Embankment

The San Lorenzo Creek has a wider cross section closer to the Bay. In this case, the Creekway inhabits the flood control access road areas at the top of the earthen embankment.

DETAILED CREEKWAY SECTION Figure 4-4: Typical Shared Use Path Components

The main components of the shared use path include a typical 12’ pathway, a safety railing along the edge of the creek channel wall, and a privacy fence along on the outer edge of the flood control property.

Figure 4-5: Typical Shared Use Path Components in Amenit y Zones

In areas where there are entrances or other areas with additional width available, these areas have been labelled on the concept plans as Amenity Zones. This section shows how seating might be incorporated along the outside edge of the pathway.

ENTRANCES & SAFE CROSSINGS Figure 4-7: Meekland Ave Entrance

The Meekland Ave entrances have been designed to navigate the major barrier presented by the bridge structure, as shown in the existing photo above. In this case, the access ramps down to the main elevation of the Creekway will be designed to maintain accessibility and safety. The Amenity Zones adjacent to the main pathway offer opportunites for lighting, seating, planting, and signage.

WRT | S a n L o re n z o C re e k way Mast e r Plan

Figure 4-8: Washington Ave Entrances

The Washington Ave entrances are navigating a bridge structure barrier similar to Meekland, as shown in the existing photo above. Similarly in this case, the access ramps down to the main elevation of the Creekway will be designed to maintain accessibility and safety. A new at-grade crossing is proposed using a lighted pedestrian and bicycle beacon at the crosswalk. This areas is also a transition for the Creekway where the path goes from being on both sides of the creek to the north side only, you can see a new pedestrian bridge that will serve to connect the communities on both sides of the creek. The Amenity Zones adjacent to the main pathway offer opportunites for lighting, seating, planting, and signage.

WRT | S a n L o re n z o C re e k way Mast e r Plan

Figure 4-9: San Lorenzo High School Entrance

The design of the San Lorenzo High School entrance requires a new bicycle and pedestrian crossing over the creek and an undercrossing at the Union Pacific Railroad as shown. The railway bridge structure is shown in the existing photo above. The undercrossing structures and clearances needed are detailed in the concept plan chapter.

WRT | S a n L o re n z o C re e k way Mast e r Plan

Figure 4-10: Hesperian Blvd Entrance

The Hesperian Blvd entrance and crossing navigates major high-traffic thoroughfares and interstate off-ramps to connect the pathway through the community. In this case, the crossing at Hesperian Blvd is at-grade, at an existing intersection. The pathway would divert away from the creek’s edge through a low-traffic residential area along Albion Ave before reconnecting down to the typical creek-side condition. The designs are detailed in the concept plan chapter. In this case, an opportunity for an expanded Amenity Zone exists along the creekside near Embers Way on County property, as shown.

BIKE AND PEDESTRIAN SAFETY Bike and pedestrian safety was of the utmost importance to the design process for the San Lorenzo Creekway. By prioritizing infrastructure that is safe, low-stress and separated wherever possible, the Creekway can maximize the potential for modal shift. The goal for the Creekway was to create a bicycle and walking facility that even the most risk averse populations would feel comfortable using and minimize all potential conflicts. Multi-use paths constitute the majority of the Creekway, however, where that is not feasible protected bicycle lanes and bike boulevards have

been introduced. Intersections are often the most dangerous along bike and pedestrian facilities. Special attention was paid to intersection with both physical improvements (protected intersections and traffic calming) and temporal improvements (signal strategies). Low Stress Facilities: •

In addition to the key entrances and access points along the San Lorenzo Creekway, there are several opportunity areas where important features like seating, lighting, shade trees where possible, trash receptacles and signage will be designed to create a welcoming and safe place. To be

attractive, comfortable, safe, inspiring, and easy to

use, the Creekway needs more than just the trail itself. It needs furnishings: places to sit, places to

park a bike, and shaded places to gather. It needs barriers and fences and lighting in certain areas. It needs signs to announce trail entrances, to direct

people toward destinations, and to give the trails a clear identity. And it needs art to add beauty and meaning.

The important characteristics of these trail elements are summarized in the following pages. The concept plans indicate where various amenity zones will be located along the Creekway. The specific locations will be determined in the next phases of design

development.
