CITY OF RANCHO CORDOVA ● BICYCLE MASTER PLANClass IClass I pathways are off-street facilities, dedicated exclusively to use by bicyclists, pedestrians, and in somecases, equestrians and for other non-motorized travel such as roller skating, skateboarding, and so forth. ClassI pathways are sometimes called multi-use pathways or multi-use trails because of the diversity of uses theycan accommodate. Class I facilities are an important recreational amenity and are often located adjacent toparks, open space, rivers, streams, and canals. In cases where Class I facilities provide direct connectionsbetween major destinations, they can become popular commute routes.* The standard trail width is 10 feet. A 12-foot trail width is desirable for major corridors or busy multi-use paths.Class IIClass II bike lanes are established in the public right-of-way and delineate a portion of the street for bicyclists,providing greater predictability in their movement relative to motor vehicle traffic. Class II lanes must belocated on roadways with adequate width to accommodate the delineation of a bike lane. Once established,bike lanes must be signed and require adequate maintenance to keep them free of debris and other barriers tosafe cycling.1-4 ▪ BICYCLE
CHAPTER 1 ● INTRODUCTIONClass IIIOn Class III bike routes, bicyclists have been directed to use a particular roadway in conjunction with motorvehicle traffic. Class III routes are generally designated on roadways with low levels of motor vehicle trafficwhere bicyclists may share the travel lane. Class III facilities are oftenused as an alternative route through a high-demand corridor. Class IIIfacilities must be signed and may be demarcated with a “sharrow” stencilindicating to motorists that they are sharing the road with cyclists. Insome cases, sharrows may be appropriate on streets that are notdesignated on the Class III system.CYCLIST TYPESCyclists use the bicycle transportation network in different ways,depending on their purpose for riding and their level of experience andcomfort on the road. Cyclist types are identified solely for the purpose ofplanning to meet the needs of all types of cyclists with a diverse networkof facilities, from meandering Class I pathways to Class II on-street lanes.Designers are challenged to provide attractive riding opportunities for allcyclists, both on streets and on bike paths.A “sharrow” alerts motorists that theyare sharing a lane or roadway withcyclists.MASTER PLAN ▪ 1-5
