    • Abstract:
      The City of Santa Cruz, California, is committed to creating and maintaining a walkable and bikeable community. Master plans adopted for pedestrians in 2003 and bicycles in 2008 back up that commitment with city policies to improve the quality of life for non-motorized road users. Located on Monterey Bay, Santa Cruz is a vibrant community that has received national recognition and awards for being a “bicycle friendly community.” Residents of the city, students at the nearby University of California Santa Cruz, and visitors to the coastline all contribute to a diverse and active-lifestyle community. The city’s General Plan 2030 states: “We will provide an accessible, comprehensive, and effective transportation system that integrates automobile use with sustainable and innovative transportation options—including enhanced public transit, bicycle, and pedestrian networks throughout the community.” In addition, transportation safety and mobility around and through the community are important to the city, and the city’s staff is encouraged to consider innovative ideas and solutions to improve traffic flow and safety. As part of a revitalization of the connection between downtown and beach areas of Santa Cruz, and in keeping with active transportation goals, the city studied upgrading the intersection of Pacific Avenue, Center Street, and Depot Park from an all-way stop to a single-lane roundabout.
