Strategies

• Develop a better understanding of other entities’ bikeway systems.

• Work with other entities in the planning process to facilitate connectivity between systems.

Policy 3: Improve connectivity of commercial developments

Issue

• Commercial areas, including office parks, are not necessarily well-served by the bikeway system.

Strategies

• Plan review of future commercial developments must assure bike paths serve the function of providing access to the site for the general public and that the site itself is well-served internally.

• Review existing areas for potential linkages and work with property owners to develop plans to address lack of connectivity to the overall City system.

Policy 4: Determine desirability of bike lanes

Issues

• Bike lanes are not in existence as programmed within Dublin.

• Bike lanes constructed parallel to bike paths might be perceived as wasteful and excessive.

• In certain places, bike lanes may be the only viable option where construction issues exist.

Strategies

• Evaluate and discuss merits and limits of bike lanes to determine if changes to existing practices should occur.

• Attempt to gauge the level of public want, need, and use of bike lanes within the community.

Policy 5: Develop signage for bike path system

Issue

• Current and planned bike routes do not have signage.

Strategies

• Work with MORPC and surrounding jurisdictions to map out legitimate routes with appropriate signage that will best serve Dublin residents.

• Develop a program of signage for bike routes within Dublin.
