Bicycle Lane Design Standards <br />1) Striped bicycle lanes are required on Major <br />and Minor Arterial streets and Major Collector <br />streets when those streets are newly constructed, <br />are constructed to urban standards, or are <br />widened for major vehicular capacity increases.* <br />(These situations are defined elsewhere in this <br />document as Major Projects, and are considered <br />projects which may be initiated by the City if <br />they have been included in the adopted <br />TransPlan.) <br />2) Bicycle lanes shall be a minimum of 5' wide <br />and shall be free from obstacles such as drainage <br />grates and utility covers. <br />* On Neighborhood Collector streets, bicycles <br />generally share the travel lane with motor <br />vehicles, therefore, striped bicycle lanes are not <br />usually required on these streets. Exceptions to <br />this standard may occur on particular Neigh- <br />borhood Collector streets, if specified in city- <br />adopted plans or policies., <br />54 <br />
