Adams Avenue and Pinecreek Drive Intersection Multimodal Improvements Project
Award
Bikeways & Trails Project
Description
The Adams Avenue and Pinecreek Drive Intersection Multimodal Improvements Project implemented innovative pedestrian and bicycle safety improvements at the primary entrance to Orange Coast College, one of the City’s busiest bicycle and pedestrian crossings. The Project removed two high-speed free-right turn slip lanes to allow for bicycle and pedestrian mobility improvements including but not limited to new Class I multi-use paths at the southwest and northeast corners of the intersection, Class II buffered bike lanes, a new signalized crosswalk on the west leg of the intersection, new sidewalks, ADA pedestrian curb ramps, bicycle ramps, pedestrian and bicyclist pavement markings, and traffic signal modifications such as new accessible push signals, retroreflective border backplates, bicycle video detection, and Leading Pedestrian Intervals (LPI). Green bicycle pavement was installed throughout the project which provides enhanced visibility of dedicated bicycle spaces to allow for safe mobility in and around the intersection. The new Class I pathway is the first in Orange County to use continuous green painted pavement to separate the bicycle path from the pedestrian path.
