Bowersox, City Man~ INITIATED BY: John D. Fitch, Assistant City Manager Mark S. Weston, Director of Engineering Servicesd~ry;~d Michael H. Robinson, Traffic Engineer~Fc DATE: SUBJECT: Parking Restrictions - Segments of Midland Road from Cynthia Lane to Aubrey Street BACKGROUND Poway has received Bicycle Facilities funding to install bike lanes along Midland Road. The Traffic Engineering and Capital Improvements Divisions have completed a striping plan for installation of new bike lanes on Midland from Hilleary Place to Aubrey Street. To install the bike lanes, parking restrictions will be needed along some segments of Midland between Cynthia Lane and Aubrey Street. These areas were reviewed at the December 1994 Traffic Safety Committee {TSC) meeting. The Committee requested that affected property owners be notified of the parking restrictions. A letter was sent to each of the owners indicating the proposed action and that the issue would be reviewed by City Council. TRAFFIC\SITE CONDITIONS See proposed striping diagram, Attachment A. Speed Limit: Midland Road: 35 MPH Speed Surveys: (85th percentile) 41MPH northbound 39 MPH southbound Traffic Volume: 3800 AWD northbound 3400 AWD southbound ACTION: 20F8 ~AR28?995 1~ 10 Parking Restrictions - Midland Ro~ ~ Hitlearf Place to Aubrey Street CiwCouncil Agenda- Page 3 - FXNDINGS In addition to providing a dedicated lane for bicycle traffic, bike lanes provide a number of other public benefits. They 1) provide better separation between moving vehicular traffic and pedestrians 2 )improve sight visibility for driveway exits by moving traffic toward the middle of the road and 3} provide additional room for right turns into driveways. Where conditions permit, it has been city policy to install bike lanes on streets such as Midland which is on the Bikeways Masterplan of the General Plan. Bike lanes already exist on Midland between Poway Road and Cynthia Lane and between Norwalk Street and Twin Peaks Road. The short segment of Midland between Norwalk and Aubrey has one lane in each direction separated by a two-way left turn lane. The Traffic Safety Committee reviewed this segment for the possibility of replacing the two-way left turn lane with bike lanes in the August and September 1994 meetings. The Committee learned that there is insufficient road width to maintain both the two way turn lane and bike lanes. The TSC determined that the two-way left turn lane should remain. A bike route was established on York Avenue around the narrow segment. Some segments of Midland are wide enough to accommodate both vehicle parking and the new bike lane. The west side of Midland between Putney and Edgemoor has sufficient width. Other smaller segments (as shown on Attachment A) can _ also accommodate parking and bike lanes. Some segments are too narrow for both parking and bike lanes. These segments need parking prohibitions prior to installing the bike lanes. They are shown by heavy dashed lines on Attachment A. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW This action is not subject to CEQA review. FISCAL IMPACT Costs will be limited to installation and maintenance of no parking signs.
