About the Project
The Phoenix Street Transportation Department is proposing an update that would add bike lanes along 19th Avenue between Telegraph Pass Road and Dobbins Road. The bike lanes would connect to the Western Canal and 19th Avenue Trailhead.
This proposed change would affect existing on-street parking. The number of driving lanes would remain the same.
Bike lanes add space between people driving and people walking or biking for increased protection from vehicles, improved safety and added comfort. Additionally, the slight narrowing of the lane widths to accommodate bike lanes will help to guide cars and deter speeding.
Proposed Changes
The department is proposing the following for this area:
- Option A: No change - one
driving lane in each direction and parking on both sides of the street where permitted
- Option B: One
driving lane in each direction with bike lanes and on-street parking on the
east side of the street
- Option C: One
driving lane in each direction with buffered bike lanes and no on-street
parking
- Option D: One
driving lane in each direction with protected bike lanes and no on-street
parking
