12/16/2021Robert Prinz, Co-Chair of Infrastructure Committee and staff with Bike East Bay, Spoke about the Fruitvale Ave ATP project that the Commission last reviewed in November 2020. This project originally included a High-Intensity Activated crossWalK signal (HAWK) signal to connect the bikeways on Fruitvale Ave and E 7th St. During the last review that connection was shown with a Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB). Now the project design includes neither the HAWK nor the RRFB. This is a challenging connection for bicyclists between the two bikeways. Commissioner Mangrum noted the importance of this connection and the need for improvements.

4/15/2021Dianne Yeeon behalf of Tim Courtney - after reviewing the Grand Avenue Mobility Project, has two requests:

1. Please make Grand and Mandela fully protected for bicycles, with concrete forward islands and narrow turn radius. This can be done with a truck apron for large vehicles.

2. Please consider closing the "slip lanes" for Peralta in either direction. Drivers speed and this is VERY dangerous for the high volume of people biking there daily. This would require converting the one way segment of 24th north of Grand.		Grand AvenueGrand Avenue to full BPAC - has been reviewed by infrastructure

Finally referred matter Sergio Ruiz,Complete Streets and Gregory Currey, Bike Ped Coordinator for Caltrans for possible funding. Had discussion with Marie and Ann Smulka, chair of the 4th Bore Coalition on July 7. Informed them of our findings and referred them to Caltrans for possible assistance.
