Plan Description This section of the Bicycle Transportation Plan contains the information necessary for decision makers and citizens to understand its scope, intent, and impacts. Those seeking specific detail regarding Plan projects, policies, and development, may refer to sections 2, 3, and 4, respectively. Purpose The purpose of this Plan is to provide a blueprint for the development of a comprehensive bicycling system that facilitates bicycle transportation by community members, from children to seniors, both within the city of Atascadero, and to and from neighboring cities. The Plan also aims at enhancing opportunities for recreational bicycling, with the dual goals of encouraging recreational cycling by residents and making Atascadero an attractive destination for tourists. Adoption of the Bicycle Transportation Plan demonstrates that the City of Atascadero is committed to bicycle transportation and will make the City eligible for various federal, state and regional grants in connection cycling related projects. Beyond that, adoption of this Plan will be an important first step in establishing Atascadero as a Bicycle Friendly Community and obtaining recognition as a place where bicyclists are welcome and safe on the roads. The Bicycle Transportation Plan is not a spending initiative or program of projects. Plan approval does not require the City of Atascadero to develop or fund projects or policies included in the Plan. Background The growing interest in bicycle riding throughout the United States is evident almost everywhere. Local and national efforts such as new bike specific development plans, bicycle infrastructure, encouragement activities, Safe Routes to Schools program, and the emergence of powerful regional bike organizations indicate a transition in Americans' attitude towards cycling for transportation and recreation. The City of Atascadero is well aware of this phenomenon and, by this Plan, is continuing the process of positioning itself to participate in it and to take advantage of Atascadero's unique suitability for bicycling. The Bicycle Transportation Plan has been created through the diligent efforts of the Atascadero Parks and Recreation Commission, the San Luis Obispo Council of Governments, the San Luis Obispo County Bicycle Coalition and citizens interested in improving the bicycling environment in Atascadero. Without the sustained efforts of the involved organizations and citizens, this Plan could not have been developed (section 4).

Already, these laws and programs are delivering over a billion dollars in bicycle, trail and pedestrian projects nationwide, and thousands of miles in new bicycle lanes, sidewalks, multi -use trails and other non -motorized enhancements. Eligibility for state and federal active transportation grant programs depends on having an approved Bicycle Transportation Plan. For example: As a result of not having an adopted bike plan, the City of Atascadero had previously been ineligible for any of the $7.2 million allocated annually by the State of California's Bicycle Transportation Account, while neighboring cities with bike plans received funds to provide improvements to their infrastructure. From the Bicycle Transportation Account alone, $64.8 million in funds have been allocated to cities throughout California since 2001. Most street improvement projects funded by SLOCOG either are conditional subject to proposed bicycle and pedestrian improvements or candidate projects are more competitive if they include bicycle and pedestrian improvements. Advantages Growing demand for cycling facilities, maintaining its unique small-town rural character, the importance of promoting energy-efficient, non-polluting forms of transportation and establishing Atascadero as a destination for active, outdoor -oriented tourists are four important reasons for adopting a Bicycle Transportation Plan. Additionally, encouraging bicycling and walking as transportation will help obviate increasing motor vehicle traffic problems in Atascadero. This Bicycle Plan can additionally enhance the enjoyment and quality of life for the residents of Atascadero. Since walking and bicycling are some of the most popular forms of recreational activity in the United States (with 84% walking and 46% of Americans bicycling for pleasure), it can be extrapolated that at least 21,000 residents in Atascadero will occasionally walk, and close to 11,500 will bicycle, purely for pleasure. Last, but certainly not least, is the matter of safety. Improving safety for cyclists is the single most effective way to encourage people to use bicycles for transportation and recreation. Addressing concerns about safety through physical and program improvements is another major advantage of the Atascadero Bicycle Transportation Plan. It has been proven that providing bike lanes also improves road safety, reducing traffic speeds and providing an increase margin of safety for motorists.

Infrastructure projects such as share -the -road signs, bike lanes, multi -use paths, and sidewalks exist in various locations throughout the City with special attention paid to providing safe routes to schools, destinations, and the downtown area (as indicated in Figure 3). Most projects have been funded through grants from the San Luis Obispo Council of Governments: Transportation Enhancements program, Safe Routes to School program. Completed projects are listed in the table and figure below (Table 1, Figure 1).

Proposed improvements have been identified through community feedback at public workshops, via email and direct communication. Additional feedback from City Staff has helped identify gaps in current infrastructure and ensure that improvements are aligned with Atascadero community values and development priorities. Short-term, 1 to 5 years (Table 2.1), and Long-term, 5 to 15 years (Table 2.2), timelines break all projects in two major categories of priority. Short-term projects are those of high priority, which could be pursued immediately, and are likely to receive grant funding. Long-term projects are often associated with community expansion, future improvements to bikeway connectivity, and often require greater regional funding coordination. Streets and Highways Code Section 831.2 requires project prioritization for bike projects. All projects have been ranked, but ranking does not strictly dictate the order of construction.

Policies The overall goal of the Bicycle Transportation Plan is to make bicycling a safe and convenient alternative to driving. The policies listed below will ensure that the City continue to: • Increase safety and livability • Reduce bicyclist accidents • Mitigate traffic and parking congestion • Facilitate affordable mobility • Attract tourists • Encourage healthy transportation choices. Specifically, each policy will provide the City with a blueprint to aid in the development of a comprehensive bicycle system that facilitates active transportation by community members, from children to seniors, both within the city of Atascadero, and to and from neighboring cities. New Development Policies P1: The City shall update the Engineering Standard Specification to include bikeway improvement standards for streets and Class I pathways including surface materials, signage and striping. P2 New development projects that construct, reconstruct, or reconfigure existing roadways shall provide bikeways as prioritized and illustrated on the Figure 1, wherever feasible. P3: Whenever new development is adjacent to a school, community center, or commercial center, development should include Class I pathways to the center/school/facility. P4: The City should take full advantage of current regional, State, and Federal bicycle and pedestrian grant funding programs for bikeway projects. P5: The Municipal Code shall be updated to require bike racks for short term and long term bicycle parking for all commercial and multifamily residential uses with a parking ratio consistent with the California Green Building Code. P6: Parking lots, park and ride lots, and transit centers should, when feasible, provide bicycle parking for commuters. The City should work with SLOCOG and RTA to identify funds for bicycle parking. P7: The City shall work with local schools to establish enough bike parking to Atascadero Bicycle Transportation Plan: September 2010 14 g OTOZ aagwaldaS :veld uopul iodsue.iy oaapeasmv alaA:)Io 'SaUel laneJI ayj y}IM SUOIe paulelulew aJe salllllae} aillq jeyj vans sauel aiilq apnpui of papualxa sl aaueualulew Ouldaanns }aaJls aJnsuo pinoys A}lD ayl :8Td 'aJow pue sa}eJS a2euleJp Alpuaiij apAaiq 'sleu2ls }e swalsAs uol}aaIap apAalq 'sAeMa�lq II sselD 2ulsson sauel UJnl-ly,IJ JO }ial aney }ey} SUOIiaaSJalul le uoilezil@uueya 'daaNdn Ilauals pue 2uldlJls 'Als 'IuauJaned 2ulpnlaul 9 xlpuaddd ul paglJasap saullapin2l of 2?ulpJoaae paule}ulew pue palanJlsuoa aq lleys sAemaj!q III pUe `II 'I ssel:) II'd :LTB a:)ueua}uleW 'veld leJauaE) oJapeaseIV ayl ui weJoelp slleJl pue Aennaj18 ayl pue }uauaa13 uol}elnaJlD ay} yilM ivaislsuoa 'slleJl Aluno pue A}lD posodoJd pue OUlIslxa o} suolIaauuoa apinoJd pinoys slleJl yaue)l @ISe3 'uollexauue aJninj ay} Jo} ueld a!3!aadS ay} ul pal}lluapl pue pauueld aq IIIM AjJadoJd yaued @ISe3 ayj uo slleJl pue sajnoJ apA:)ig :9Td 'alglssod uayM sa}noJ aiilq Oullslxa pue SJUauJanoJdwi Oullslxa of iaauuoa o} uol}lsueJl pinoys sauel al!q MaN 'salJepunoq A}JadoJd }e AlldnJge pua jou pinoys sauel @j!9 :STd 'sa!}!I!aej Bui lied pue syled 'sauel ailiq yllM UMOJUMOQ ay} ulyllM IaneJ} pue ssaaae aIDA:)iq 00ue03 :tiTd 'Bullnwwoa apAalq a2eJnoaua of }uawdlnba pue say}op 2ulJo}s pue sul2ueya Jol sa!l!I!aej apnpul of juawdolanap Mau a2eJnoaua pinoys A}lD ayl :ETd -Jany seulleS ayj Ouole uo}aldw@i of oJapease}y woJ} uollaauuoa alnoJ alaAalq e ysllgelsa of 'sueJlle:) pue AjunoD ods1gO slnl ueS 'JO:)OIS se vans 'sapuaL9e Jayio y}lM aleulpJooa pue 2ulpun} Maas lleys Ai!:) ayl :ZTd •alglssod JanauayM slaafoJd leuol2aJ yllM pa}eulpJooa aq pinoys slaafodd IIeJl pue Aenna>llq Ieaol :TTd A}lnul}uoa alnoJ azl}lJolJd pue sa}noJ ap/blq ul sdeO ajeulualla pinoys A}lJ ayl :OTd weJgoid }uauJanoddwI lellde:) ayj gullepdn pue Oullgwasse uayM pa}lnsuoa aq Ileys Ueld DIM ayl :6d •seaJe uollexauue 10 MalnaJ Al!:) ul padaplsuoa aq pinoys sal}lunlioddo uelJlsapad /apA:)Iq }o Malna�l -veld sly} yllM }ualslsuoa aq lleys suol}exauue aJnlnj Ilb' :8d uol}elndod }jets/}uapnis ayl }O %OT lse@l }e alepouauaoaae and pedestrian pathways should be maintained as part of the City row maintenance efforts. - The City should encourage local cycling and service groups to aid in maintenance or bicycle and pedestrian facilities. - An "adopt a trail/lane" program could be implemented to provide recognition for all maintenance related community service efforts. - If necessary, trail maintenance programs administration may be contracted to a local organization or bicycle advocacy group. Education and Safety P19: The City shall install directional signage to assist community members in their effort to find streets with bicycle facilities or identify locations where there is a change in the type of facility (e.g. where a Class I ends at an intersection and a Class 11 start on the other side, signage shall indicate to user what courses of action are available to them). P20: The City should consider the establishment of a Rack for Plaques program where community members donate funds for the purchase of specific bike parking racks in designated locations in exchange for special recognition on those racks to assist in meeting bike parking requirements. P21: All community events where over 500 attendees are expected should provide bike parking for at least 10% of the expected turnout. - Temporary bike parking can typically be contracted to an outside organization. Ex: Bike Valet services may be hired the San Luis Obispo County Bicycle Coalition (SLOCBC) at a minimal cost to the event organizers. P22: The City shall work with SLO Regional Rideshare to provide Transportation Choices Programs to City employees. P23: The City should encourage safer cycling through Bicycle Education Workshops. The SLOCBC currently teaches a two part series of workshops to teach adults safe bicycle riding, provides one hour lunchtime sessions to businesses, schools and more. The School District shall be encouraged to provide bike and pedestrian safety programs at schools within City limits. The City may participate in bike rodeos or assemblies, organized walk/bike to school day events, and Safe Routes to School Activates. Collaboration with SLO Regional Rideshare, SLOCOG Safe Routes to School, SLOCBC, PTA and other organizations should be conducted to locate additional grant funding and volunteer support. P24: The City should require Bicycle Confidence Workshops (offered by SLOCBC) or another equivalent program, to all people ticketed for bicycling illegally.

Special guidance regarding potential political hurdles, cycling encouragement programs, and infrastructure ideas has been provided by the San Luis Obispo County Bicycle Coalition. In May of 2010 the Parks and Recreation Commission, with assistance from the SLO County Bicycle Coalition, conducted a public workshop to better understand current demand for a Bike Plan, discuss its potential benefits, and receive input regarding specific projects and policies Atascadero residents care about most. Over 20 participants were present at the pubic workshop. After the workshop, the stakeholder group began moving forward with updating the content of the plan and integrating ideas for improved bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure. A public hearing conducted on September 28th at a joint meeting of the Atascadero City Council and the Parks and Recreation Commission provided additional opportunities for public feedback before the completion of a Final Draft of the Atascadero Bicycle Transportation Plan. Relationships to Other Plans As an Element of the General Plan, the Bicycle Transportation Plan has the comprehensive scope and jurisdictional authority required to coordinate and guide the provision of all bicycle related programs, projects and facilities affecting the City of Atascadero. While many current planning efforts provide recommendations regarding one element or aspect of the bicycle networks; the task of the Atascadero Bicycle Transportation Plan is to ensure consistency between all of these blueprints, while attending to planning for areas of the City not already targeted by other studies. The studies or planning efforts listed below have been reviewed and consulted, studied for consistency, and where appropriate, folded into Atascadero's Bicycle Transportation Plan: City of Atascadero General Plan (2002) The 2002 update of the General Plan addresses the planning and design of bicycle facilities in Atascadero. It makes specific recommendations meant to improve cycling conditions throughout Atascadero. Recommendations include: (a) a comprehensive network of on and off road bike routes to encourage the use of bikes for commute, recreational and other trips, (b) provide trailheads to improve access to the Salinas River and historic De Anza Trail.

Barriers include lack of infrastructure or inadequate infrastructure that poses a safety hazard, or lack of outreach programs that promote walking/bicycling through education and encouragement for children, parents, and the community. Project Eligibility: Eligible projects fall under the category of infrastructure (capital improvements), or non -infrastructure (education, encouragement, enforcement). Infrastructure projects must be located within a two-mile radius of a grade school or middle school. Eligible applicants include state, local and regional agencies. Non-profit organizations, federally recognized Native American Tribes, school districts, hospitals and public health departments can partner with state, local and regional agencies as their responsible applicants. Administered through Caltrans Local Assistance Competitive Federal funding cycle complete. Future funding cycle structure unknown. Additional information found at: http://www.dot,ca.gov/hq/LocalPrograms/saferoutes/saferoutes.htm Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) This new Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP), under SAFETEA-LU, replaces the Hazard Elimination Safety Program (HES). The new program provides a transition period that allows States to fund projects that were eligible under the old HES Program until such time that an annual 5 Percent Report, describing no less than 5 percent of public roadway locations with the most severe safety needs, and a Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) have been developed and implemented by the State. The intent of HSIP is to significantly reduce public roadway fatalities and serious injuries. The emphasis will be at locations that are data and strategically driven. Project Eligibility: For a project to be eligible for HSIP funds, the project must be on any public road, publicly owned bicycle, pedestrian pathway, or trail. Projects must identify a specific safety problem that can be corrected or be improved substantially. Administered through Caltrans Local Assistance. See http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/LocalPrograms/hsip.htm Recreational Trails The Recreational Trails Program (RTP) provides funds annually for recreational trails and trails -related projects. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the California Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) administer the RTP. The Department's Office of Grants and Local Services administer non -motorized projects and the Department's Office of Highway Motor Vehicle Recreation Division administers motorized projects. See http://www.parks.ca.gov/default.asp?page_id=1r+32c, State State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) These funds are not historically used for bicycle specific improvements, except in the case of STIP TE — regional & local projects only (see Fed TE information above) STIP funding is used for major highway and regionally significant projects that can include bicycle improvements. Interregional Transportation Improvement Program OT/P) These funds are not historically used for bicycle specific improvements, except in the case of ITIP-TE projects. These funds are for Transportation Enhancements of Statewide significance such as the De Anza Trail, Atascadero-Templeton Connector, etc. Transportation Development Act (TDA) Approved by the Legislature in 3.971, the Mills-Alquist-Deddeh Act or SB 325 created the Transportation Atascadero Bicycle Transportation Plan: September 2010 26 LZ pZpZ -iaquiaadaS :ueid uo!jea.iodsuejy wopesmV -s}ueld algel!ns jagio pue saga} }o 6u!lue!d aqj g6noagl Al!lenb a!e anoidw! pau6!sap SIDDfOJd -- Ajlsajod uegjn pue adeDspueg Aemg6!H . :sauo6aleo aaagl ui papaeme aje s}uea6 pue'sIuawaaJ6e JueJ6 panoadde aqj sials!u!wpe suealle3 •sa!}unOD uaaglnos £i pue uaagljou Sri s,e!woJ!IeD uaamlaq I!!ds glnoS/q:pON 09/047 e su!eju!ew 1£-y of @pew s!

Office of Traffic Safety Grants (OTS) Competitive Grants issued by the Office of Traffic Safety on a regional/local level. Search for Local grant information on the website at: http://www.ots.ca.gov/Grants/defau[t.asp Safe Routes to School Program (SR2S) Assembly Bill (AB) 1475 (Soto — 3.999) called for Caltrans to establish and administer a program to fund bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure improvements for children in grades K-12 using federal transportation funds. Senate Bill (SB) 10 was later enacted to extend the sunset date of the program from January 1, 2002 to January 1, 2005. Subsequently SB1o87 was signed by Governor Schwarzenegger to extend the program for three more years. In 2007, AB 57 was enacted which eliminated dedicated funding and required that funds compete against other safety programs in the annual State Budget process. Project Eligibility: To be eligible for SR2S funds, the project must be located on any state highway or on any local road. Projects must correct an identified safety hazard or problem on a route that students use for trips to and from school. Up to 10 percent of the project's cost can fund a non - infrastructure component that supports the infrastructure project. Only cities and counties are eligible to compete for funds. Competitive funding cycle completed. Status of next funding cycle is unknown. Additional information at: http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/LocalPrograms/saferoutes/saferoutes.htm Local/Regional Traffic Mitigation/Impact Fees These one-time fees may be imposed on new developments to pay for fair -share improvements and facilities required to serve it or otherwise reduce the impacts of new developments in a community on a regional level. While a number of jurisdictions actively collect local impact fees, to date, regional traffic impact fees have not been pursued within the San Luis Obispo region. General Funds Jurisdictions can use General funds for bikeway improvements as outlined in their Capital Improvement Program. Sales Tax Increase Local Option Sales tax: This can be used to improve bikeways, this is up to the Jurisdiction to decide to do, promote, and prioritize funds from. San Luis Obispo, Pismo Beach, Grover Beach, and Morro Bay passed Local Option Sales tax measures in 2oo6. Regional Option Sales tax: Throughout California, more and more regions have turned to a more stable funding, locally -derived, source for transportation projects. Nineteen counties (representing 85% of the population) have passed voter measures to increase the local sales tax, most typically, by o.5%. In 07/o8, over $4.513 was generated for transportation purposes in these regions. Currently, these measures require a 2/3rd majority vote and the funding may only be used for projects and programs in the approved Expenditure Plan. A similar measure in the San Luis Obispo region would generate $20M -$25M Atascadero Bicycle Transportation Plan: September 2010 28 6Z OiOZ .iagwaadas :ueld uoiaej_iodsuejy apii zq8 ojape:)mV Sg %£'o g£ %£ t + �iSL + %9 S + Sb9 + 000z-o66z �IeM DIDADi8 uen'jDnal'J2D saa;nwwOD IeIol saea� :000z o} o66z woa j 6ui�IeN\ pue 6uilaA:)i8 ui a6ueHD %S•i SLi %S•o zg %g -z6 69ztt 9Sort 000z %z•z o'iz %6•o ooz %£•t6 5V7OT zz'itz 066z MeM DIDAD19 uen'�Dnal'aeD saajnwwOD le;ol aeaA uogejjodsuea;}o WJ04 yaea 6uisn aldood jo aagwnu Je;o; aq; sa;eDlpul jagwnu gae3 :Japlo pue saeaA gt saajaoM aoj jaoM o; uol;eliodsueal4o sueaA a -SLoz ui ueld uoi;e:podsueal apAaig aq;40 a;epdn aq; ui pazip;n aq Ipm 6ugenn pue BUIIDAo o; saauaeq pue saaioga uol;ejjodsuea; 6ulpae6aa jjodaa y •saaioga uol;e:Podsuea; 12DOI 6uipjebaa gaaeasaa leuoq ppe g;lnn pie o; suoi;eziue6ao ;i}ojd-uou pue ;uawuaano6 leaol q;lnn a;eulpjow o; sued oaapeDse;y }o AID aq; uoi}ewaojui pape;ap ajow jo Al!l!gelieneun aq; o; an(] •(£dS :£ alid tiewwnS) 000z pue (£dlS :£ apd adel AaewwnS) o66z woad e;ea snsu9D sn uo paseq aae ueld siq; ui pa;p se oaapeDse;y ui JJoM o; 6ui;nwwoD sueu;sapad pue s;slpAa Jo jagwnu aql sa}ewlls3 aa}nwwo3 ueIJ4s8p9d pue apA:)i8 :1i xipueddy ,veld ald ue@ID pa;dope s;i o; 6uipao»e spun} asoq;}o asn aq; s;Daalp aDdd A;unOD odsigo sln-1 ueS aql •6uiuueld asn puel pue ';isuej; Uawa6euew puewap Ianea; se Bans 's;l}auaq Aj!lenb jie g;lnn sal;lni;De 6uluu2ld pue s;Dafoid uol;eliodsuea;}o 6uipunj aq; ao} pasn aq /yew spun] asagl •886t }o ;Dy JIV uealD eivaoj!IeD aq;}o suolslnoad aq;;uawaldwi o; kessaaau swel6oid snolaen punj o; a6aegDans uoi;ea;sl69a aplgan e pa;uawaldwl seq (aDd`d)Pu;s14 loa;uoD uoi;nIpd aiy AjunOD odsigo sm-1 ueS aql 99 z8b Spun_4uol4n4Uauaa7u.il - bb» 43V.riy ubal) bluao IIDD •600z Ajenuef ui pa;uawaldwi aq o; aseanui xe; lan};uaD £-z e panoidde Al;uaaaa epenaN ui AjunOD aogseM •sal;lun:poddo 6uipun} leaol apinoJd pue Janal leuoi6aa e ;e pa;uawaldwl aq uea aseanul xel hand y asnaaaul xbl janj •6ulpun} le;uawalddns 6u1;e6i;sanul pmpaennao} 6uinow spuawwoaaa did ozoz aql •ssaa6ojd /pue apew;a/Ajou seq uol6aa odsigp sink ueS ag;'xe;sales uol;do leuol6ai e ansind AIDAIssaJ66e pue AIDA;ae o; anul;uoa sal;unOD 6uiulewaa aq; jo Auew a11gM •ae;)A aad uoda�j uois11100 PanIonuI aloA019 dHO E m r. •.•.r,•L•i 6002 - LOOZ a - i suoisilloo o� !s J ONIGV:)Svlv fo Alli z N �iYv_' gip` . .�•.fu�%wlY 6fi pjpZjagwa;daS :uu!d uopea.iodsue-il a!z)A:)io wapeasuay •nnolaq g a aas •WaH jad aa}jn6 loo} -z e gl!nn;aa} S pue 4aa} h iseal le aq pinogs auel al!q agjjal}n6 ou q}inn jaw4s e up •pa�jew aae sliels 6ui�aed aaagnn;aa} S }o wnwiuiw e saainbaa WaH aqj_ •sa.inlDnilsea}ui apAa!q jagjo uaaMlaq A;!nuijuoa ap!noid sauel asagl -app o; ajagnn }o s4sipAa ao} uo!;!ui}ap pue S;SIIDAa }o Al!l!gissod }o sIsuolow of uo!leD!pui ue apinoid saue� •Ianeal DIDADiq AeM auo jo} papua;ui aye pue sAenng6ig ao slam;s uo sapAaiq ao} paduis sauel we asagl •pa;I!iwad sisiaolow pue suep}sapad }o snnoI}-SSOJD pue 6u!�aed ap!gan q;inn inq pa4iq!goad suepIsapad ao sap!gan aoJow Aq Janea; g6noagl q�!nn sapADiq }o asn anisnpxa-!was jo anisnpxa aqj .io} pau6isap Aenn-}o-;g6ia palap;sW e apinoad jegj sAenn@�!g :11 sselD 1-96 ajn6! j'a:)lnW aas'sanejeap u6is Jo� :aloN paper {:u!W) -• Paned 4iP!PA {'�'!W) .8 • -..-_- p�uea J. i-�!W) .,7. , ,Z • r .: 44 pqr Jk� uoileai}pads Aemq!q I ssep 9a •nnolaqa� aas •eaae ap!nn 1001-zt}o wnw!u!w e 6ui�ew apis gaea uo papeJ6 ;aa} z wnwiu!w e q;!nn ap!nn }aa} g aae sluawaa!nbad •paziwiuiw slsiaolow Aq snn011-ssoao g}inn sueialsapad pue sapAa!q }o asn anisnlaxa aqj ao} pa}eu6isap Aeon-}o-}q6u pa}eaedas Ala;aIdwoa e ap!noid jeq; shmaj!e :1 ssep suoijea!}pads lenueW u6!sao Aenng6iH q}!nn Jua}sisuoa aje sad/} ssep 6uinnoIIo} aql sadifl ssvID fo suo *gla(j sai}ili:)e:j apA:)i8 :9 xipuaddy Figure 7 Class II Bikeway Specifications IMotor Vehicle Lanes M w'� I ir k Yh!ii Pare Bike !!!!

OTDZ•8'6 *uoilie Isiq gi a Appendix 8: Bicycle Safety Workshops The SLO County Bicycle Coalition has a variety of workshops designed to meet the needs of all types of community members. STREET SKILLS WORKSHOP In this workshop you will learn how to take on the road with confidence. Learn simple yet innovative techniques to ride safely, get noticed, and gain the respect of motorists. Find out the typical scenarios that usually lead to a crash and how to avoid them. Learn about your legal rights on a bike. We'll then take it on the road where you'll get to put your new techniques to immediate use, such as how to negotiate an intersection and how to take charge around all of those cars. We guarantee that after you leave this workshop you'll feel more empowered about taking on traffic. Workshop duration: 4.5 hours RIDE RIGHT WORKSHOP Get more in-depth training on bicycling in traffic. Learn how a simple thing like lane positioning can make a big difference in how you are treated in auto traffic. Beyond that, we'll show you basic road mechanics like how to change a flat, adjust your brakes, and even adjust your gears. Workshop duration: 5 hours BROWN BAG SEMINAR Interested in having a presentation on bicycling at your place of business, club, or community group? Our one-hour seminar is a great way to introduce bicycling to yourfriends or colleagues. Atascadero Bicycle Transportation Plan: September 2010 42
