And better places to bike on the street helps get people on bikes and scooters off the sidewalk and onto the bike lane, freeing up space for walking and reducing crashes and close calls. Protected intersections make crosswalks shorter and place pedestrians so they are more visible to drivers. Narrower lanes discourage drivers from speeding. Protected bike lanes provide more space between sidewalks and moving traffic. It’s not just about bikes, though-the same improvements that make it safer to bike also make it easier to walk. With simple design changes like protected bike lanes on wide streets, protected intersections at busy crossings, and traffic diverters on small streets, we are focusing on providing calm, comfortable, and connected bicycling routes. The City of San José is redesigning several streets to make it safer, more convenient, and more comfortable to bike.
