Central City Mobility update #13

21st St: Nearly all striping is done and green paint complete, except for a few spots that were missed. No vertical delineators have been installed. No bicycle signal has been installed at 21st St and I St, and according to a SacBee article (Sacramento to install new bike signal at midtown cross street. How it will change traffic?), will not be installed before late July. The turn wedges are a continuing hazard to bicyclists as they imply that drivers will make safer turns, but they are not doing so.

19th St: Most striping and green paint has been installed from H St to Q St, with a few spots still being worked on. No striping has been installed south of Q St to X St, there are still temporary lane marking tabs without bike lanes. No vertical delineators have been installed.

P St: Repaving from 21st St to 15th St is complete, and white line striping is nearly complete. No green paint yet, no vertical delineators. P St has several of the unsafe turn wedges. In the blocks from 17th St to 15th St, drivers are parking in the bike lane, but to the east, drivers seem to be using the detached parking correctly.

Q St: It has been stripped down, and paving should occur soon.

10th St: ADA ramps nearly complete, but no sign of reconfiguration.

9th St: No work. It is unlikely that 9th St will be completed this year (or next?), as there are three blocks of major construction that block sidewalks and bike lanes, and would prevent completion of any roadway reconfiguration.

5th St: No further work beyond the signal bases that were installed some while ago.

I St: No parking signs have been up for quite some while, but there is no evidence of work beyond a few ADA ramps.

  1. Q St has now been repaved. The temporary lane marker tabs indicate a very wide general purpose lane, parking lanes, and NO bike lanes. So until all the striping and infrastructure is installed, this will be a street without bike facilities.
