A brief description of the facilities:
Pedestrian and Bicycle Facility Assessment
Pedestrians and bicyclists significantly outnumber vehicles on most college campuses. Campus sustainability is dependent on the adequacy of facilities in order to accommodate the high number of trips generated from pedestrians and bicyclists. Facilities accommodating these mode choices include bicycle lanes, and sidewalks and pedestrian pathways which are present throughout the campus. Between 2005 and 2010, the network was expanded to provide better sidewalk connectivity along Holly Drive, Magnolia Drive, Laurel Drive, Beard Drive, Alumni Drive, Elm Drive, and several other locations. Along the perimeter roads of the campus, sidewalks are present along Fowler Avenue and 50th Street. Crosswalks are marked at most intersections and numerous mid-block locations throughout campus and at gateway intersections along the campus perimeter.
New sidewalks or pathways are planned along Magnolia Drive, Pine Drive, Alumni Drive, Leroy Collins Boulevard, Maple Drive, Bull Run Drive, Bruce B. Downs Boulevard, Fletcher Avenue, and several other locations. The long range pedestrian network, showing both existing and planned sidewalk and pathways, is shown in Figure 5.5.
Bicycle lanes are provided on roadways or pathways throughout the campus. Existing bicycle lanes are present along one or both sides of sections of Magnolia Drive, Leroy Collins Boulevard, Beard Drive, Holly Drive, Maple Drive, Palm Drive, Alumni Drive, Elm Drive, and Willow Drive. Bicycle signage is posted along selected bicycle lanes within campus. Bicycle lanes are also marked on all public roadways surrounding the campus (Fowler Avenue, Bruce B. Downs Boulevard, Fletcher Avenue, and 50th Street) as well as at intersections with right-turn lanes. Lanes for bicycle traffic proceeding straight through an intersection are typically marked to the left of right-turning vehicle traffic.
