Segment D: US-287 to Miller Avenue Figure 18. Proposed Cross-Section
Existing
Proposed
Four, 12-foot vehicular travel lanes with a posted speed limit of 35-mph. This portion of East Berry Street is missing a significant amount of sidewalk. Desire paths have formed along the roadways indicating a need for multimodal facilities. There is no dedicated space for bicycling. z This is the corridor segment with the least amount of public right-of-way at 80’ and is primarily fronted by residential housing and commercial uses. z This section of East Berry Street has an 85th percentile speed of 43 mph, 8 mph more than the posted speed limit. z There are regular shifts between residential and commercial uses with inconsistent pedestrian accommodations and frequent driveways. z The average annual traffic volumes are approximately 11,000 vehicles per day.
Vehicular Realm
A 4-lane street with a 10-foot raised median.
A 10-foot sidepath for walking and bicycling and other micro mobility options and a 4.5 foot buffer to separate the vehicular realm from vulnerable users. z This cross-section requires acquiring 5 feet of right- of-way on each side of the road, increasing it to 90 feet total. z This cross-section involves constructing a 10-foot median along the entirety of the segment to improve access management and increase safety. z Pedestrian refuge islands and left-turn lanes should be considers throughout the segment to provide necessary access expanding to 5-lanes including a left-turn lane z The buffer is expanded to 4.5 feet. z This section recommends a landscape easement outside of the right-of-way.
