San Marcos Downtown Area Plan

CHAPTER 4: RECOMMENDATIONS

COMPLETE MULTIMODAL NETWORKS (Recommendation C.4) MULTIMODAL CONNECTIVITY & PARKING Bicyclists, pedestrians, transit riders, and other micromobility users should have priority within Downtown San Marcos. In order for these modes to be as attractive for travel as cars, the networks need to be complete and provide for direct, safe, and comfortable travel between major destinations. While the safety of pedestrians should be prioritized on all streets, bicyclists, transit riders, and other micromobility users should be prioritized on specific streets. The map on the next page identifies priority routes for new/improved bike facilities. Priority routes are focused on connecting the bicycle network and include areas where bike facilities are missing or in poor condition. New and improved bike facilities shall be provided to complete a network rather than exist on all streets. Shared lanes/sharrows are appropriate on all other minor streets.
