At the September 21, 2023 BPAC meeting, Charlie Ream and Cathy DeLuca, transportation planners from OakDOT’s Planning & Project Development team, will provide an introduction to a paving project on Telegraph Ave between 52nd Street and Woolsey Street. Staff recently kicked off the project and is seeking commissioners’ feedback on initial conceptual designs.
An excerpt of the presentation is below, followed by the full presentation.
OakDOT is finishing up a permanent design for Telegraph Avenue from 20th St. to 29th St. that will be constructed in 2021. In the meantime, the Department will install interim treatments in 2020 that address lessons learned from the 2016 street design currently on Telegraph Ave.
The interim treatments are:
Bollards between bike lane and parking, and around beige painted safety zones
Clear and more frequent stencils to indicate the lane against the curb is in fact a bike lane
Slower right turns with special turning speed humps
Restricting left turns and through movements at key intersections with bollards (23rd St., 25th St., and Sycamore St.)
