Olympic Corridor Bikeway Connection

This is a short survey to get your input on where a bikeway connection should be designed to connect Lafayette-Moraga Trail with Iron Horse Trail. The Cities of Walnut Creek and Lafayette, along with Contra Costa County, are studying options to connect these two popular bike paths and want to hear from people who ride, walk, jog, etc, or would like to, for any type of trip if a pathway were built. Thanks for your input.

Question Title

This is a two-way cycle track in Alameda

Question Title

* 5. The image above from Alameda is a two-way cycle track, which is an on-street bikeway physically protected from traffic by a raised curb, plantings and other physical separations. It can be designed wide enough for pedestrians and bicyclists or be coupled with a sidewalk. It can also be protected with car parking too.

If such a two-way cycle track is part of the Olympic Corridor bike-ped connection, would you feel ...

As comfortable as an off-street pathway, such as the Iron Horse Trail

Almost as comfortable as an off-street pathway

Sufficiently comfortable to use as you would an off-street pathway

Significantly less comfortable than an off-street pathway

Other (please specify)

Question Title

* 6. Some early discussions have focused on routing the pathway connection on to Newell Ave, or keeping it on Olympic Boulevard. Do you have a preference?

I prefer the Olympic Boulevard connection into Walnut Creek

I prefer the Newell Ave connection into Walnut Creek

Other (please specify)

Question Title

* 7. Some of the bike-ped connection may need to be designed on-street where a pathway away from traffic is not feasible. In such cases, the design in some spots may need to be compromised in a way that works primarily for experience bicyclists, but is more of a challenge for inexperienced and beginning bicyclists. Is this an acceptable tradeoff in your opinion?

Yes, I'm OK with a design that works for many cyclists with more experience

No, I think the design should work for all users, regardless of their experience
