4. Project Name: Canal Neighborhood Uncontrolled Crosswalk Improvements Project
5. Brief Description of Project (50 words max.):
The project would make improvements to uncontrolled crosswalks in the Canal neighborhood including
but not limited to, adding signage, rapid flashing beacons, restriping, installing ADA curb ramps and
adding bulb outs.
The Canal neighborhood is one of Marin County's most densely populated communities,
representing more than 25% of San Rafael's 58,994 residents (2013 census), and has a minority
population of 69% (predominantly Latino, per 2010 Census data). The median income in this area is
significantly lower than surrounding areas, and it is an MTC Community of Concern. Biking,
walking, and the use of public transit is almost double that of the same modes in the rest of Marin
County. The percentage of households with no car available (20%) is significantly higher than other
households in San Rafael or Marin County. There is only one elementary school in the Canal
neighborhood, and no middle or high schools. There are limited educational, shopping, and health
services available within the Canal neighborhood, and travel to other locations for these services is
highly constrained by poor bicycle/pedestrian routes.
The Canal neighborhood is located east of highway 101. It is bound by the San Rafael Canal to the
north and Bellam Boulevard to the south in the City of San Rafael. Canal Street provides access to
the Bay Trail, which attracts a lot of visitors for leisure walking and biking, again adding to the
number of trips. The community heavily depends on modes of travel other than auto, such as
walking, biking, carpooling, and using transit. Thus, the project need is to improve safety for
bicyclists and pedestrians travelling between a Community of Concern and work/school /shopping
and services. See Attachment A for a map of the Canal neighborhood.
The following is an inventory and proposed improvements at the selected intersections:
Medway Rd Uncontrolled crosswalk on Medway Rd. Add pedestrian crosswalk ahead signage on
and Front St ADA compliant curb ramps and pedestrian both directions of traffic. Install solar powered
crosswalk striping. rapid flashing beacons at crosswalk.
