A Better Leucadia 101 Streetscape Plan

• Two traffic lanes in each direction
• Medians where there are none
• 35 mph speed limit
• Bike lanes in each direction
• Sidewalk on the west side
• No on-street parking on the west side
• Parking between the railroad tracks and 101 for the entire length of the corridor
• Pedestrian-activated crosswalks every one or two blocks
• If those crosswalks are not enough to slow the traffic, put some of them on speed tables.
• No roundabouts
• No tree removal
• Plant and maintain as many new trees as possible.
• Bus stops as described in the final EIR
• At-grade track crossings or, better yet, trench and bridge the tracks.
• See Solana Beach’s 101 corridor for its good and bad points.
