City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
CHAPTER 11- BIKE AND PEDESTRIAN ELEMENT
11.0 Introduction
11.0.1 Why Plan for Bicycling and Walking?
Bicycling in urban areas has grown dramatically in the last decade due to factors such as healthier
lifestyles, rising fuel costs and a desire to lessen impacts on the environment. By creating safe
places to ride, the development of new facility types such as bike lanes, bicycle friendly routes, and
shared use paths have enabled more people to use bike transportation. In addition, as the
importance of a healthy lifestyle has grown, the desire to incorporate exercise through walking has
also grown. As a basic form of mobility, virtually all trips regardless of mode start and end with
walking.
The City of Spokane Valley has the essential elements to create a great place to bike and walk.
Most streets connect, congestion is minimal, the terrain is flat, and weather is suitable many
months of the year. For these reasons, biking and walking is a great way to get around the City.
Where there are close links between home and destinations (such as school, work, and shops)
walking and cycling can be the preferred and efficient way to move from place to place.
Promoting walking and bicycling can help ease congestion, address weight and health issues and
enhance the livability and economic vitality of our community. They help promote interaction
between neighbors, strengthen connection to the community, provide `eyes-on-the-street' security,
and support local retail activity. By comparison, streets and places where people are not present
often feel uncomfortable and barren. Cities around the nation with the most positive economic
growth and solid resources from tourism, general retail and other sources are places where people
can come and feel comfortable.
11.0.2 Overview
As an element of the City of Spokane Valley's Comprehensive Plan, this chapter is organized to
present background data concerning bike and pedestrian facilities (Section 11.1), applicable
federal, state and local codes relating to the topic (section 11.2), and a set of goals and objectives
(section 11.3). Section 11.4, contains city-wide bike and pedestrian facility improvements, potential
education, enforcement and evaluation tools. As a policy document, this chapter will guide
decisions regarding multi-modal transportation facilities. As an implementation tool, it will detail
priorities and standards for development.
11.0.3 Vision Statements
To increase opportunities for non-motorized transportation that improve the connectivity, safety,
convenience and attractiveness of the pedestrian and bicycle network in the City of Spokane
Valley.
To identify and prioritize facility recommendations based on thorough data collection and
analysis, community visioning, regional collaboration, engineering assessment and preliminary
cost estimates.
11.0.4 Process
Several steps were involved in creating the Bike and Pedestrian Master Program.
a. Data Collection
A comprehensive field inventory of existing bicycle and pedestrian facilities was conducted,
identifying constraints and opportunities for improvements. The City coordinated with
adjacent jurisdictions as well as bike, pedestrian and health advocates, property owners
and other stakeholders. This step incorporated a thorough review of the existing adopted
Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan, including a review of the bike facility map, goals and
policies related to bike and walking activity, as well as a review of recently approved similar
Chapter 11 —Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Adopted 10-25-2011, Effective 11-09-2011 Page 1 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
plans in the region. Accident data and funding sources for potential future projects were
also gathered. A sidewalk inventory completed by students at Washington State University
(WSU)was added to the City's GIS system.
b. Public Outreach
This Bike and Pedestrian Master Program (BPMP) was created over a year and a half
period with participation from a diverse group of citizens, residents and interested parties.
A contact database was created to ensure interested parties were notified throughout the
development of the plan. Over 900 contacts were included within five months of initiation.
The first in a series of BPMP workshops was held on June 16, 2010. A diverse group
Voiced opinions and concerns on bicycling and walking in the City. Through an interactive
exercise, the participants identified destinations, obstacles, and preferred routes for bike
and pedestrian facilities. An on-line survey was made available through the City's web
page. Over 350 responses were received from the online survey, indicating a significant
level of interest. The short, non-statistical survey gathered additional insight into the biking
and walking experience in Spokane Valley and into desired routes and destinations.
c. Connectivity Assessment and Route Recommendations
From the gathered data, a preliminary connection assessment and potential route
recommendations were developed. Details of existing rights-of-way, pavement width,
driveway approaches and traffic counts were gathered.
d. Continued Public Outreach
A second community workshop was held on September 19, 2010 to present preliminary
bike and pedestrian routes and connections based on the information gathered at the first
workshop and through the on-line survey. The Spokane Regional Health District presented
information on health impacts associated with alternative modes of transportation. By
prioritizing potential projects, participants helped create a vision of a comprehensive bike
and pedestrian network.
The workshops were publicized online, at schools, bike shops and community facilities
throughout the City. In addition, staff prepared newsletters and maintained a BPMP page
on the City of Spokane Valley website. Quarterly updates were presented to the City
Council as part of the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) status
reports.
e. Safety Analysis and Prioritization of Improvements
A portion of money from the City's EECBG funded an engineering consultant to review the
proposed routes for safety, cost and prioritizations. This engineering assessment provides
technical guidance to help ensure that proposed bike and pedestrian facilities, such as bike
lanes on arterials or shared use paths in neighborhoods, are safe, functional, and
appropriate for the set route.
f. Plan Refinement, Review and Adoption
Desired routes were refined based on technical input from the consultant. Classifications
for both bicycle and pedestrian facilities were reviewed based on the American Association
of State Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) guidelines and industry standards.
Comprehensive Plan text, maps and exhibits were prepared. Priorities and preliminary
implementation schedules were included. Additional workshops were held to gather input
on the draft BPMP document. Finally, the BPMP was presented to both the Planning
Commission and the City Council.
11.0.5 Bike and Pedestrian Master Plan Technical Advisory Group
Developing the BPMP resulted in partnerships and collaboration between the City, adjoining
jurisdictions and many other interested agencies and individuals. Representatives from many of
these groups served on the Bike and Pedestrian Technical Advisory Group (BPTAG). The BPTAG
Chapter 11 —Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Adopted 10-25-2011, Effective 11-09-2011 Page 2 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
met several times to review and make recommendations on potential routes, facilities and
implementation strategies.
11.0.6 Partnerships
Preparation of the BPMP has involved a wide range of people and agencies. Partnerships and
collaboration contributes to the quality and integrity of the program. Maintaining these partnerships
will contribute toward successful implementation and realization of shared goals.
a. Spokane Regional Health District
The Spokane Regional Health District (SRHD) serves as the area's public health leader
and partner in protecting and improving the health of the community. The Health District's
Physical Activity program works with community coalitions, elected officials, citizen groups
and other organizations to encourage policies that make it easier for people to be physically
active. An analysis of existing social, economic and health statistics of the residents of the
City of Spokane Valley was prepared by the SRHD epidemiologist. The role of SRHD was
to bring awareness of the positive health impact bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure can
have on a community.
b. School Districts and Safe Routes to School
Safe Routes to School is a national program aimed at enabling community leaders, schools
and parents across the country to improve safety and encourage more children to be active
by safely walking and bicycling to school. In the process, work associated with Safe
Routes to School contributes to reducing traffic congestion, improving physical health, and
making communities more livable overall. The SRHD along with the City, Bicycle Alliance
of Washington, Central Valley School District, East Valley School District, and West Valley
School District worked diligently through the 2010/2011 school year to prepare walking
audits of all elementary and middle schools. Walking audits are detailed surveys of streets
and sidewalks within a one-mile radius surrounding a school using the Safe Walk and Bike
Routes: A Guide for Planning and Improving Walk and Bike to School Options for Students
(site: WSDOT and WTSC 2010). Results of the audits are used to prepare preferred
walking routes for students and to identify and prioritize street and sidewalk safety projects.
Continued coordinated efforts between school districts, SRHD and the City will aid in the
successful implementation of safe routes for pedestrians of all ages.
c. Spokane Transit Authority
The Spokane Transit Authority (STA) is a regional public transportation agency providing a
variety of transportation options, including bus service to the City of Spokane Valley. The
transit system effectively expands the area that pedestrians are able to access for daily
services and activities. STA's database of pedestrian paths throughout its service area
was used as base data for the City's sidewalk inventory, gap analysis and recommended
pedestrian network. The data identified barriers to people using the sidewalk network to
access the bus system.
d. Bicycle Alliance of Washington
The Bicycle Alliance of Washington is a non-profit organization advocating for bicyclists and
bike-friendly communities throughout Washington. The Alliance works toward increasing
the percentage of all types of bicycle riders and increasing funding available for inclusive,
non-motorized transportation facilities. The Alliance works closely with Safe Routes to
School programs and serves as a clearinghouse for bicycle education and advocacy.
e. Washington State University
In 2007, Washington State University Interdisciplinary Design Institute (WSU) created a
pedestrian model by mapping pedestrian networks throughout Spokane Transit Authority's
service area, identifying barriers such as the absence of sidewalks and curb ramps, and
non-ADA compliant variations in the surface condition, height, width, and slope of
Chapter 11 —Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Adopted 10-25-2011, Effective 11-09-2011 Page 3 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
pedestrian facilities. The data has been used to identify existing routes and to determine
sidewalk infill priorities. By partnering with the City, data developed through the Bike and
Pedestrian Master Program will be used to update the WSU pedestrian network model. In
turn, the model will be useful in prioritizing pedestrian improvements in an effort to increase
safety throughout the City.
f. Spokane Regional Transportation Council
The Spokane Regional Transportation Council (SRTC) is the local metropolitan planning
organization encouraging coordination and collaboration between planning and
transportation departments throughout the region. SRTC maintains the Transportation
Improvement Program, a three-year list of state and federally-funded transportation
projects, and the Metropolitan Transportation Plan in Spokane County, a document
addressing transportation needs for the next 20 years. SRTC recognizes that walking and
bicycling are simple and efficient modes of travel that can increase public transit ridership.
Coordination between the City and SRTC will create opportunities to implement effective
non-motorized projects and programs.
11.1 Planning Context
The Bike and Pedestrian Element of the Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan expands on the
Transportation Element to focus on non-motorized transportation. Also referred to as the Bike and
Pedestrian Master Program, this element is consistent with the overall Comprehensive Plan,
specifically the Land Use, Transportation, Parks and Recreation and Neighborhood Elements.
1'1.'1.'1 GMA
The Washington Growth Management Act (GMA), the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) and the
Washington Administrative Code (WAC) provide for the inclusion of non-motorized transportation
elements in comprehensive plans. Bike and pedestrian planning is sometimes included in the land
use, transportation or recreation elements. Using a separate element to address opportunities and
constraints specific to these non-motorized forms of transportation allows the City of Spokane
Valley to focus on improvements that enhance the livability and economic vitality of our community.
11.1.2 County-Wide Planning Policies
County Wide Planning Policies (CWPP) provide a policy framework for the County and its
respective cities. Specifically items I 0 and 16 under Policy Topic 5—Transportation, state:
10. Each jurisdiction should coordinate its housing and transportation strategies to support
existing, or develop new, public multimodal transportation systems.
16. Each jurisdiction shall address energy consumption/conservation by:
a. Designing transportation improvements for alternatives to the single-occupant vehicle;
b. Locating and adopting design standards for new development to support pedestrian or
non-motorized travel;
c. Providing regulatory and financial incentives to promote efforts of the public and private
sector to conserve energy; and
d. Reducing the number of vehicle miles traveled and number of vehicle trips.
As described in Section 11.0.6 above, the SRTC is the Metropolitan Planning Organization for the
Spokane region. SRTC maintains the Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP), a 20-year strategy
to meet the transportation needs of the region. MTP goals related to non-motorized transportation
include:
• Establishing a bicycle and pedestrian program that will increase the mode-share of people
walking and bicycling as a means of transportation over the next 20 years;
• Eliminating barriers that discourage or prohibit pedestrian or bicycle access;
Chapter 11 —Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Adopted 10-25-2011, Effective 11-09-2011 Page 4 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
• Identifying the needs and gaps in the regional bicycle and pedestrian system; and
• Encouraging connections between residential areas and adjacent land uses to enhance
awareness and cooperation between all roadway users.
The MTP facilitated the creation of three complementary products: the Spokane Regional Bike Plan
(adopted in 2008); the Spokane Regional Pedestrian Plan (adopted in 2009) and the SmartRoutes
program. All of these were collaborative efforts with SRTC, the Spokane Regional Health District,
the Active Transportation Technical Committee (including representatives from the City of Spokane
Valley and other cities and towns) and a citizen-based steering committee. Each of these
documents encourages jurisdictions to tailor the regional plans to their own needs and to use them
for guidance to develop appropriate bicycle and pedestrian projects that traverse jurisdictional lines.
11.2 Existing Setting
11.2.1 Comprehensive Plan
The City of Spokane Valley's Comprehensive Plan includes goals and policies to guide
development within the City. All elements within the Comprehensive Plan must be internally
consistent. Goals found within other elements encourage the development and implementation of
a bike and pedestrian system within the City. The following are from the Land Use, Transportation,
Natural Environment and the Parks and Recreation elements:
Land Use -Goal LUG-7
Provide a balanced transportation network that accommodates public transportation, high
occupancy vehicles, pedestrians, bicyclists, automobiles and integrated parking.
Transportation -Goal TG-9
Enhance community livability and transportation by encouraging a connected system of pedestrian
and bicycle ways that is integrated into a coordinated regional network.
Natural Environment-Goal NEG-20
Support regional efforts to improve air quality.
Parks and Recreation -Goal PRG-4
Based upon budgetary resources, promote, develop, operate and maintain a comprehensive
trail/bicycle system within Spokane Valley that provides non-motorized travel (walking, bicycling,
skating, and horseback riding)to meet city residents recreation, fitness and commuting needs.
11.2.2 Current Activity
a. Collision Data
The Washington State Department of Transportation maintains records of pedestrian and
bicycle collision data. Between 2003 (incorporation) and 2010, there were six fatalities and
295 serious or disabling injuries in Spokane Valley associated with pedestrian and bicycle
collisions. On average, there are 41 pedestrian and bicycle collisions per year. The
majority of the collisions occurred on major arterials including Argonne, Pines and Sullivan
Roads. It is estimated that many bicycle and pedestrian collisions have happened but have
not been reported.
b. Citizen Input
To ensure the bike and pedestrian system reflects the community's desires, an extensive
outreach component was built into the process. As described in the previous section, this
process included workshops and an on-line survey. The results showed that a majority of
respondents walk or bicycle for exercise/health, enjoyment, or to commute to work/school.
When asked what prevents a person from biking or walking, an overwhelming 70% of the
Chapter 11 —Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Adopted 10-25-2011, Effective 11-09-2011 Page 5 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
respondents said it was due to the lack of facilities. The results showed the community's
desire to see improved bike and pedestrian facilities in or around the following six routes:
1. Sprague Avenue
2. Pines Road
3. 32nd Ave 1 Dishman Mica
4. Argonne 1 Mullan corridor
5. Valleyway Avenue (as a bicycle friendly route)
6. Sullivan Road
Many mentioned the need for more north/south connections to the Centennial Trail. The
preferred facilities were bike lanes and shared use paths. The graphs below illustrate the
respondent's views.

c. Health Data
As part of the initial community workshops, the SRHD prepared information correlating
active lifestyles, including bicycle and pedestrian commutes, to improved health.
Sedentary lifestyles can contribute to obesity. Obesity can be defined as a person with a
body mass index of 30 or greater. Obesity can contribute to illnesses including heart
disease and strokes, high blood pressure, osteoarthritis, diabetes and some forms of
cancer.
Lack of physical activity increases health risks, resulting in increased costs for medical
care, worker compensation and lost productivity. Obesity and lack of activity contribute to
chronic diseases including cancer, heart and respiratory disease. The top five causes of
death in Spokane Valley are shown below:
Literature reviews have shown that urban design and land use policies creating
opportunities for physical activity within communities have been effective and are
considered best practices for increasing a community's health and reducing obesity.
More than half of Spokane County's carbon monoxide emissions are from vehicle sources.
Reducing vehicle trips by accommodating and encouraging active transportation can
positively impacts health by improving air quality.
SRHD also considers socio-economic factors as they relate to health. A link exists
between education, poverty, and mobility choices. In Spokane Valley, between 2004 and
2008, 37.4 percent of the population had less than a high school diploma or GED. The
amount of education a person achieves influences their ability to earn a certain standard of
living. Between 2004 and 2008, 43.9 percent of the City's population was at or below the
200 percent federal poverty level. That is more than twice the national average. A
substantial percentage of the population either cannot afford automobile transportation, or
affording it is a financial hardship. For these people, in addition to the young in age and the
older population, getting around by other alternatives such as walking, bicycling or transit is
a necessity.

City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
11.2.3 Existing Bicycle System
Though developed as a compilation of rural townships over time, the City of Spokane Valley has a
strong grid pattern of streets. The placement of principal and minor arterials, collectors and local
access streets overlaid on the relatively flat topography provides an excellent base for non-
motorized transportation.
a. Types of Bicycle Users
There are many types of bicyclists with varying skills and levels of comfort in terms of riding
in traffic. While bicyclists can be loosely categorized as experienced adult, casual adult and
child cyclists, there are many levels of cycling competency and just as many opinions as to
what makes an ideal bike route. Some experienced cyclists ride on busy arterial streets
regardless of bicycle facilities. Some cyclists will ride on busy roads only if bike lanes are
provided. Some will use the lanes only if parallel residential roads are unavailable.
b. Existing Bicycle Facilities
A combination of striped bike lanes, posted bicycle friendly routes and separated bike
facilities are found throughout the City. In addition, other streets act as informal routes,
favored by bicycle commuters as safe and convenient alternatives to bike ways with heavy
automobile traffic.
The following different types of bicycle facilities, as defined by the American Association of
State and Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) are found throughout Spokane
Valley:
i. Shared Use Path: Facilities on separated right-of-way and with minimal cross flow by
motor vehicles. Minimum width is six feet; optimal width is ten feet. Shared use paths
may also be used by pedestrians, skaters, wheelchair users, joggers and other non-
motorized users.
• The Centennial Trail is an example of a shared use path in the City. With
connections through adjacent jurisdictions, it is an important regional recreational
and commuting facility. Other shared use paths exist along the south side of
Appleway Avenue from Sprague Avenue to the eastern City boundary and on
Sullivan Road, from Centennial Trail to just south of Trent Road.
ii. Bike Lanes: A portion of a roadway designated by striping, signing and pavement
markings for the preferential or exclusive use by bicyclists. The required width of a bike
lane on a given street varies based on several factors, such as existence of a gutter
and curb. Parking and traffic volume must be considered as well. AASHTO and SRTC
(Spokane Regional Transportation Council) guidelines recommend that for a street
without gutter or curb, the minimum width of the bike lane should be four feet. If the
street includes curb and gutter, the minimum width should be five feet. In situations
where parking is permitted without any striping or stalls, AASHTO guidelines
recommend an 11-foot bike lane width. Bicycle lanes improve conditions for cyclists of
all abilities within a given corridor and encourage increased bicycle use by providing a
greater degree of comfort and perceived safety for less skilled cyclists.
• Striped bicycle lanes are located along several arterials, including 32nd Avenue,
portions of Broadway, Evergreen Road, Mission Road, Sprague Avenue and 16th
Avenue. Mirabeau Parkway from Pines Road to Indiana Avenue and Indiana
Avenue from Mirabeau to Evergreen Road are also improved with bike lanes.
iii. Signed Shared Roadway: Signed lane allowing both vehicular and bicycle traffic.
Minimum width is 14 feet. Signed shared roadways indicate to cyclists that there are
particular advantages to using these routes compared to alternate routes.
• In the City of Spokane Valley, signed shared roadways exist on 4th Avenue from
University to Conklin, and on Trent from Flora to the eastern city boundary.

City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
iv. Shared Roadway: Lane allowing both vehicular and bicycle traffic. No signing is
involved.
• All public streets in the City of Spokane Valley can be defined as shared roadways.
Existing bike facilities in the City of Spokane Valley are shown in Map 11.1. Other bicycle
facilities found throughout the City include bicycle parking facilities at some commercial,
public and office facilities and bicycle racks on transit vehicles.
c. System Deficiencies
Barriers surrounding both recreation and commuting bicycle activity throughout the City
include crossing Interstate 90, railroad tracks, and the Spokane River. Currently, principal
arterials cross these barriers. However, the limited space for bike facilities on these
arterials plus the traffic volume hinders the safety and comfort for many riders. This
impacts those trying to access commercial and employment centers in the north part of the
City as well as those trying to access the Centennial Trail. Other factors impacting bicycle
activity include impaired sight distances, limited street connectivity, cyclist and motorist
behaviors, lack of way-finding signs, and maintenance issues.
11.2.4 Existing Pedestrian System
a. Types of Pedestrians
For trips of a certain length, walking is a simple affordable way to get around. Spokane
Valley, with relatively flat terrain and a predominately grid street pattern, has great
opportunities for pedestrians of all kinds. People choose to walk for many reasons
including recreation and necessity. Pedestrians include adults, children, seniors, people
without cars and people with disabilities. Those with higher levels of transportation choice,
i.e. those specifically able to afford cars and of driving age, make use of autos for most
trips. This situation is not so much a reflection of popular transportation preferences but of
the many auto-dominated land use and transportation decisions that created present day
Spokane Valley. Citizens, including those driving cars as well as seniors, youth and people
with disabilities, need safety, connectivity and accessibility.
b. Existing Pedestrian Facilities
Sidewalk inventories were performed by City staff as part of the analyses conducted for the
Bike and Pedestrian Master Program and the American with Disabilities Act transition plan.
Also, in association with the Safe Routes to School program, volunteers from all elementary
and middle schools in the City conducted walking audits to determine potential routes to
their schools and to identify missing sidewalk segments, potential pedestrian conflicts and
existing safe haven areas for students.
The existing pedestrian system in Spokane Valley includes sidewalks, shared use paths,
wide shoulders on rural roads and residential streets. Generally, sidewalks exist on most of
the existing arterials and range in width from three to six feet. In addition, most streets
surrounding elementary, middle and high school facilities are improved with sidewalks.
Several shared-use paths, intended for all types of non-motorized transportation, are
located throughout the City (see section on existing bicycle facilities above). Map 11.3
shows locations of existing sidewalk facilities.
Other infrastructure associated with pedestrian activity includes curb ramps, intersection
markings, cross walks with and without associated signals, benches and shelters for transit
facilities, and street trees.
c. System Deficiencies:
For the most part, sidewalks on arterials are constructed adjacent to the curb and lanes
where cars are traveling in excess of 30 and 40 miles per hour, impacting pedestrian
comfort and safety. In addition, while current development standards require separated
sidewalks, there are portions where sidewalks were not built with initial street construction.
Chapter 11 —Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Adopted 10-25-2011, Effective 11-09-2011 Page 11 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
Other factors making walking difficult include crosswalk issues on high-volume streets,
obstructions such as power poles and utility boxes in the sidewalk, outdated or non-existent
curb ramps, poor lighting, limited facilities at transit stops, and maintenance issues.
11.3 Goals and Policies
Spokane Valley is intended to become a bicycle and pedestrian friendly City, where bicycling and
walking are encouraged and promoted as safe and convenient forms of transportation and
recreation. Goals help guide actions towards fulfilling this vision. Policies are more specific
statements relating to implementing measures that will achieve the goals.
As with many cities, Spokane Valley has limited funds with which to pursue its bike and pedestrian
goals. Focused and prioritized resources will aid the City in having a positive impact on non-
motorized transportation infrastructure. The City will strive to make strategic investments of the
limited resources available and where possible, leverage resources in cooperation with other
governmental and private agencies.
The following goals and policies are consistent with the goals and policies of other chapters of the
Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan, with the Countywide Planning Policies and the Growth
Management Act.

11.4 Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
11.4.1 Engineering Improvements
a. Overall Bicycle and Pedestrian Network
The City of Spokane Valley Bike and Pedestrian Master Program is based on field data,
citizen input and engineering analysis of constraints and opportunities for bicycle and
pedestrian facilities. It should be noted that this is a master program, not a detailed
feasibility analysis. As such, exact routing and designations could be modified during the
course of more detailed studies of specific projects. The recommended bikeway network is
shown in Map 11.2 and recommended pedestrian network is shown in Map 11.4. Map 11.5
shows the recommended travel ways for the schools that participated in the safe routes to
school exercise.
b. Possible Engineering Solutions
The specific types of bike and pedestrian treatments that are applied to roads vary
depending on the existing right-of-way, traffic counts, traffic speeds, roadway cross
sections, number of approaches or driveways on the street and topography. A brief
description of bicycle treatments is provided below. More specific design guidelines
including the complete toolbox and typical cross section layouts are found in Appendix 2:
Facility Design Guidelines.
i. Bicycle Friendly Routes— Bicycle friendly routes are roadways with low speeds and low
Volumes. The treatments recommended for bicycle routes should strive to improve
through movements for bicyclists and other non-motorized modes. Bicycle route
treatments are ideal on two-lane roadways where traffic volume is less than 3,000
Vehicles per day (although less than 1,500 vehicles per day is preferred) and posted
speeds of 25 miles per hour or less. See Appendix 2 for specific bicycle friendly route
treatments and cross sections.
ii. Bicycle Lanes - Bicycle lanes designate an exclusive part of the roadway (typically on
the right side of the roadway) to be used by bicyclists only. A bike lane is typically
located between the right most traffic lane and the curb or on street parking area. A
bicycle lane should be considered on roadways with traffic volumes greater than 3,000
Vehicles per day or posted speeds greater than 25 miles per hour. Appendix 2 includes
a variety of bicycle lane treatments from a standard bike lane to buffered bike lanes
and climbing lanes. The appendix also includes cross sections showing how bike lanes
could be applied to existing City roadways.
iii. Cycle Tracks - A cycle track is an exclusive bike facility separated from vehicle traffic
and the sidewalk, and is intended to provide improved comfort and safety for the
bicyclist as compared to an on-street bike lane. The cycle track can be separated from
Vehicle traffic using a variety of treatments (curbs, planter strips, on-street parking,
pavement markings, or other options). In addition, the cycle track should be clearly
defined from sidewalks (grade separated, pavement markings, or an alternate clear
indication) to prevent bicycle conflicts with pedestrians. A cycle track requires a wider
cross section than a typical bike lane, but should be considered on roadways where
bicyclists may not feel comfortable biking directly adjacent to vehicle traffic.
iv. Shared Use Paths — Shared use paths are physically separated from the roadway and
are intended for use by pedestrians, bicyclists, runners and other non-motorized
users. Shared use paths supplement bike lanes, bicycle friendly routes and sidewalks
and connect to these other facilities at ends of the path as well as midway, depending
on the length and location. The number of driveways and crossings should be
minimized when designing a shared use path. Generally, if there are more than eight
crossings per mile, an on-street facility should be considered instead.
Chapter 11 —Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Adopted 10-25-2011, Effective 11-09-2011 Page 14 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
V. Bicycle Intersection Treatments - Intersection treatments improve the safety of
bicyclists through an intersection (typically a signalized intersection). Depending on the
characteristics of the cross streets (traffic and bicycle volumes, traffic and bicycle
speeds, type of bicycle facility, number of vehicles and/or bikes turning, visibility,
surrounding land use, and other factors) a range of treatments may be applicable.
Appendix 2 provides specific intersection treatment guidelines and criteria.
vi. Mid-Block Crossing Treatments - Mid-block crossings can be dangerous for bicyclists
because drivers are not typically expecting a crossing at a non-intersection location.
The need for a mid-block crossing may arise if two bicycle facilities are off-set or if a
trail intersects a roadway at mid-block. In these situations, mid-block crossing
treatments can be applied to improve the safety.
vii. Wayfinding - Wayfinding is meant to be used by bicyclists while en route to
communicate directions, distance and sometimes expected travel time to a particular
destination. Wayfinding is typically accomplished through the use of signs
supplemented at times with pavement markings. Wayfinding can be beneficial to all
types of bicycle facilities.
viii. Prioritization Criteria—Bicycle Network
The overall bicycle and pedestrian networks will be implemented over time. The
criteria contained in Appendix 1 has been used to determine where to focus available
funding and staff time to implement bicycle facility projects. Priority is given to those
projects anticipated to serve the most number of people and to contribute to overall
safety.
ix. Prioritization Criteria—Pedestrian Network
The criteria contained in Appendix 1 was used to determine where to focus available
funding and staff time to implement pedestrian facility projects. Priority is given to
those projects anticipated to serve the most number of people and to contribute to
overall safety.
x. Network Improvements
Facility improvements, summarized in Appendix 1, are categorized as short-term and
long-term projects based on need and ease of implementation.
11.4.2 Ancillary Facilities
Ancillary facilities add to the safety and comfort of using walking and bicycling as modes of
transportation. Ancillary facilities can include bicycle parking, showers and lockers, transit features
and bicycle and pedestrian maps. Crosswalk design can aid in increasing visibility through the use
of specific striping patterns and lights. The following methods address ancillary features:
a. Pedestrian Features: Encourage that pedestrian crossing facilities, including
crosswalks and signage, alert both motorists and pedestrians to the presence of the
facility. Work with developers and utilities to remove existing hazards such as light
poles and utility boxes from the sidewalk. Where appropriate, constrain roadway width
with bulb-outs and tighter right turns at intersections to slow vehicles as they approach
areas with high pedestrian volumes. Provide sidewalks or pedestrian paths between
neighborhoods and commercial or public destinations where appropriate. Encourage
clearly identified safe walking paths between public sidewalks and commercial
buildings.
Chapter 11 —Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Adopted 10-25-2011, Effective 11-09-2011 Page 15 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
b. Bicycle Parking: Continue to require bicycle racks for new development. Consider
developing standards for the size of bicycle parking spaces, clearance, aisles, signs,
anchoring, non-interference with pedestrian circulation, and weather protection.
c. Shower and Locker Facilities: Continue to coordinate with Spokane County Commute
Trip Reduction program to encourage shower and locker facilities as tenant benefits
and to encourage employers to consider partnering with nearby gym facilities for use of
existing shower facilities.
d. Transit Features: Continue as an active partner with the Spokane Regional
Transportation Council and the Spokane Transit Authority to encourage the
accommodation of bike lockers and bikes on transit vehicles.
11.4.3 Education and Encouragement
Unfortunately, too many bicyclists in the United States lack the basic skills or knowledge to safely
ride a bicycle in traffic. Many people are afraid of bicycling on streets. Bicycle education programs
are designed to increase bicycle safety by improving the ability to ride with traffic as well as improve
motorist awareness. The difficulties faced in helping people develop this skill and knowledge stems
from the wide range of age groups that require this training and the necessity to tailor the programs
to each group. Bicycle education programs should be directed at children bicyclists, adult bicyclists
and motorists.
The following methods address education and encouragement:
a. Child Education and Encouragement: In conjunction with the Health District, school
districts and other interested organizations, encourage development of bicycle
education programs for several age groups or use existing programs that have
demonstrated effectiveness. Programs could be incorporated into existing summer
parks programming and existing school programming. Programs could include bicycle
helmet safety information, maintenance and repair, safe riding habits and bicycle rides.
More specifically, students in grades K-3 could be taught basic pedestrian skills,
stranger danger, crossing residential streets, using pedestrian push buttons and taking
a school bus. Older students in Grades 4 to 5 could learn bike safety and handling
skills, including bike operation on streets with supervised bike rides on neighborhood
streets. Later, in Grades 7-9, students could learn basic mobility skills of how to get
around town including using transit for utilitarian and recreational trips (e.g., how to
read a bus schedule, execute a transfer, take rapid transit), and more on safe bicycling
practices. In tenth grade, many students take driver's education. The driver's
education curriculum could include focused instruction on how motorists should interact
with pedestrians and bicyclists, how to predict their movements, pass safely and learn
when different modes have the right-of-way.
b. Adult Education and Encouragement: Continue to partner with the Health District,
Police Department, SCOPE and other interested organizations to develop adult
pedestrian and bicycle program(s) which could include a public awareness campaign
focused on responsible road behavior. The campaign could be directed to
pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists alike and make use of public service space from
newspapers, television, radio, bus advertising, posters and flyers included in utility
bills. In addition, promote community events such as Bike to Work Week, charity bike
rides, costume rides, bike fairs and bicycle rodeos. Include bicycle safety checks and
safety information. Incorporate "share the road" signs where appropriate on City
streets and include "sharing the road" or other safety campaign information on the
City's webpage.
11.4.4 Enforcement
While laws that address bicyclists' behavior and safety are in place, they are sometimes not fully
enforced. Effective enforcement leads to a safer environment for pedestrians, bicyclists and
Chapter 11 —Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Adopted 10-25-2011, Effective 11-09-2011 Page 16 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
motorists alike. The following methods address enforcement of this Bike and Pedestrian Master
Program:
a. Law Enforcement: Work with the Spokane Valley Police Department to develop a policy to
include the City's intent to enforce existing laws affecting pedestrian, bicyclist and motorist
responsibilities, including parking in bike lanes but especially those relating to drunken
driving, careless driving, speeding and failing to yield.
b. School Crossings: Continue assisting school districts to develop their Safe Routes to School
programs to ensure safe crossing activity at school sites. Engage SCOPE as an additional
presence where needed.
c. Facility Upkeep: Continue existing program of regular maintenance of street and sidewalk
facilities. Ensure that asphalt pavement overlays are flush with the concrete gutter and that
utility covers are flush with the pavement.
1'1.4.5 Implementation and Funding
Various portions of this Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Program can be implemented with existing
procedures (such as paint applied when a road is resurfaced, continuing existing requirements and
coordination with other agencies). Other portions will require further study, possible neighborhood
input and detailed engineering design. Table 11.4.1 summarizes potential steps involved with
implementation:

As referenced in Table 11.4.1, funding would be required to implement many portions of the Bike
and Pedestrian Master Program.
Detailed descriptions of funding sources, including match requirements and application timing, are
contained in Appendix 3. Review of several funding programs reveals that while each grant
announcement details specific criteria for funding, certain common threads are present. When
applying for funding consider the following criteria:
Chapter 11 —Bike and Pedestrian Master Program
Adopted 10-25-2011, Effective 11-09-2011 Page 17 of 18
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
a. Partnership
Funding is limited. Therefore, grant sources encourage and support cooperative regional
projects and planning efforts that integrate housing, transportation, environmental impact
and economic development. Projects that pull together public and private entities and
multiple stakeholders are favored.
b. Risk Reduction
Crash data quantifies dangerous stretches of pedestrian and bicycle commute routes.
Increasing safety for pedestrians and bicyclists encourages the larger community to
consider these alternative modes of transportation. Projects designed to address a clear
and demonstrated safety hazard are therefore encouraged.
c. Location
Bike and pedestrian facilities that link residential areas with schools, recreation facilities,
and shopping areas result in a large benefit to a community. Encouraging alternative
transportation to daily activities reduces car commutes and pollution. Well located projects
also consider and provide for multi-generational users.
d. Broad Project Scope
Developing and encouraging use of an overall bike and pedestrian system is an on-going
process. Implementing a successful bike and pedestrian master program includes
identification of facility improvements, provisions for education, encouragement and
enforcement, and program follow-up that provides for evaluation and adjustments over
time.
11.4.6 Monitoring and Modifications
Monitoring the effectiveness of the overall BPMP can be accomplished as part of the annual
Comprehensive Plan review and update. Modifications to the Bicycle Map, the Pedestrian Map, the
project implementation tables and other programs described in this Chapter can be accomplished
as needed to achieve established goals. The City's web page can be updated with notices of
projects that are in the planning, design, build or maintenance phase. Education and enforcement
activities can be highlighted on the web page.

Appendix 2: Facility Design Guidelines
Introduction
This appendix is intended to be used as a resource to determine appropriate treatments for bicycle
facilities in the City of Spokane Valley. It is organized in two sections:
1. Toolbox. The toolbox describes treatment options and criteria to determine whether the
treatment is best suited for a particular facility.
2. Cross Sections. The second section illustrates several existing cross sections of roadways in
the City recommended as bicycle facilities, and shows how those cross sections could be
adjusted to accommodate different bicycle facilities.
Toolbox
The toolbox provides design guidelines and criteria for seven general types of bicycle treatments:
• Bicycle Friendly Routes (Table 1)
• Bicycle Lanes (Table 2)
• Cycle Tracks (Table 3)
• Bicycle Intersection Treatments (Table 4)
• Mid-Block Crossing Treatments (Table 5)
• Wayfinding (Table 6)
• Shared Use Bicycle Paths (Table 7)
These treatments are not exclusive of one another, and are generally used in combination. For example,
a bicycle friendly route or bicycle lane could also include wayfinding and intersection treatments.
Resources:
The following resources are referenced in the toolbox developed for the City of Spokane Valley Bicycle
Master Program (BPMP):

a. Shared Lane Markings(or"Sharrows")
Shared lane markings are used to indicate that a facility is intended for shared bicycle and vehicle use.The markings raise
awareness to motor vehicle drivers of the presence of bicyclists on a facility and indicate the proper location for bicyclists in the lane
(for example, placing sharrows with adequate space for bicyclist to avoid being doored by on-street parking).
Estimated Cost Range:$100 to$250 per marking depending on materials
b. Traffic Calming
Traffic calming techniques are used to reduce the speed of motor vehicles on roadways.Techniques may include: traffic islands
(pictured on the left and right respectively),curb extensions,lower speed limit and painted or patterned pavement
Estimated Cost Range:$2,000 to$15,000 plus landscaping for traffic islands

Bicycle Lanes
Description:
Bicycle lanes designate an exclusive part of the roadway to be used by bicyclists only.A Bicycle lane is typically located between
the right most traffic lane and the curb or on street parking area.
Criteria:
• Streets where traffic volumes are more than 3,000 per day
• Streets where the posted traffic speed is 25 mph or greater
• Streets with truck traffic

Bicycle Lanes
..................................................................................................................................................................................................
.................................................................................................................................................
b. Climbing Lane
Climbing lanes can be used on bicycle facilities with uphill grades.The climbing lane provides separation between bicyclists and
vehicles for uphill roadway sections that are otherwise designated as shared roadways.On uphill sections in particular,the speed
differential between bicyclists and motor vehicles increases,which increases the safety risk.There are no standard criteria for when
to install a bicycle climbing lane.Some cities recommend climbing lanes on bicycle facilities with grades as low as 1.5%depending
on the roadway characteristics and potential conflicts between vehicles and bicyclists,while others might not install a climbing lane
unless a facility exceeds a 5%grade.The characteristics of the facility should be considered along with vehicle speeds,volumes,
and bicycle volumes.
By providing an uphill bicycle lane,separation is maintained between the two modes and safety is improved. In the downhill
direction a bicyclist can likely travel at the speed of traffic,so a shared lane is adequate for the downhill bicyclist.
In the picture below the right lane is traveling uphill with a bicycle climbing lane,and left lane is traveling downhill with a shared
bicycle/vehicle lane.
Estimated Cost Range:$4,000 to$6,000 per mile(the cost may increase if existing pavement marking removal is required)
......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
c. Buffered Bicycle Lane
A buffered bicycle lane provides additional separation between the bicycle lane and vehicle travel lane(or in some cases between
the bicycle lane and on-street parking). Depending on the existing lane widths,creating a buffered bicycle lane either reduces the
width of a vehicle travel lane or removes a vehicle travel lane.A buffered zone between the bicycle lane and vehicle travel lane is
recommended when traffic speeds are above 35 mph.
Another alternative is to place the buffered zone between the bicycle lane and on-street parking,which is better suited for locations
with high parking turnover rates.
Estimated Cost Range: $5,000 to$10,000 per mile

d. Left Side Lane
Left side bicycle lanes can be used on one-way streets or on median divided two way streets.This treatment can be considered if
there are heav transit activities deliveries,or parking turnover on the right side of the street.
Estimated Cost Range:$4,000 to$6,000 per mile(same as a typical bicycle lane)
e. Paved Shoulder
This treatment is typically used in rural areas on roadways with higher speeds. On roadways with over 2,000 ADT and speeds that
exceed 35 mph the paved shoulder should be between four and six feet from the face of guardrail. If the roadway speed exceeds 50
mph or there is a high percentage of heavy vehicles,the paved shoulder should be 8 feet wide.As long as the paved shoulder
meets the width requirements based on roadway speed,the shoulder may be signed as a bicycle facility.
Estimated Cost Range:Varies depending on the existing roadway conditions.

g. Transitioning a Through Bicycle Lane
Transitioning a through bicycle lane to the left side of a vehicle right turn lane prior to an intersection reduces the potential for right
hook collisions by correctly positioning both the bicyclist and vehicle at the intersection.A"Begin right turn lane,yield to bicycle"sign
should be placed at the beginning of the transition zone.One option to increase visibility of the transition zone is to use colored
pavement marking through the transition area(shown in image on right).
Note—this treatment is NOT recommended for intersections with double right turn vehicle lanes.

i. Colored Bicycle Lane
Having a colored bicycle lane as it approaches an intersection draws attention to the correct and expected location of bicyclists.The
treatment is ideal for intersections with high bicycle and vehicle volumes,or at locations where the position of the bicycle lane
changed from the previous block.The FHWA has issued an Interim Approval for the use of green coloring in bicycle lanes. Citing
multiple experiments that demonstrated positive operational effects for both bicycle riders and other road users,with no notable
negative effects,this approval allows states to apply for approval to use coloring in bicycle lanes and bicycle lane extensions,and
States may request approval for all jurisdictions in that State.This Interim Approval does not make the use of green colored
pavement mandatory.3
Estimated Cost Range:$5 to$15 per square foot depending on material. Depending on wear maintenance costs could include
reapplying color every 2 to 10 years.

Cycle Tracks
Description:
A cycle track is an exclusive bicycle facility separated from vehicle traffic and the sidewalk,and is intended to provide improved
comfort and safety for the bicyclist as compared to an on-street bicycle lane.The cycle track can be separated from vehicle traffic
using a variety of treatments(curbs,planter strips,on-street parking, pavement markings,or other options). In addition the cycle
track should be clearly defined from the sidewalk(grade separated,pavement markings,or an alternate clear indication)to prevent
bicycle conflicts with pedestrians.
.....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Criteria:
While the US does not have established standards that define what conditions warrant a cycle track,international documents do
provide some guidance. However, in most cases,the criteria are more qualitative than quantitative and each facility should be
evaluated independently based on roadway and user characteristics.
For one-way cycle tracks
• Streets with high motor vehicle volumes and/or speeds(factors that would make on-street biking feel uncomfortable).
International documents suggest a cycle track may be appropriate where traffic speeds are 40 mph or greater4 and total
two-way traffic volumes are 9,000 vehicles per day or greater.5
• Streets with few driveways(there is no specific number;engineering judgment should be used for each facility in question)
• Streets where intersection conflicts can be effectively managed(since cycle tracks are often on the right side of on-street
parking,visibility of cyclists approaching intersections can be compromised,parking set backs and other mitigation
measures need to be considered at intersections and driveways)
For two-way cycle tracks(in addition to the criteria listed above)
• Streets with destinations mostly on one side
• Streets with less driveways or intersection conflicts on one side
• On one-way streets to reduce the out of direction travel for bicyclists
• On streets where there is not enough room for a one-way cycle track on each side of the roadway

a. Cross Section and Pavement Markings
A one-way cycle track should be 5 to 7 feet wide with a minimum 3 foot buffer.The buffer can be a variety of treatments including
planters,raised curb,on-street parking, pavement markings,bollards,landscaping,or other treatments. Cycle tracks can be at
either roadway level or sidewalk level; however, roadway level is typically preferred to help prevent bicycle and pedestrian conflicts.
Bicycle markings should be placed in the cycle track(at the beginning of each block and at periodic intervals if necessary)indicating
the facility is intended for bicycle use(and not motor vehicle or pedestrian use).

b. Driveway and Side Street Treatments
Vehicles turning into driveways or side streets across cycle tracks presents a unique challenge because drivers may not anticipate a
bicyclist approaching since the cycle track is separated from the vehicle lanes.The following treatments can be used to improve the
safety of a bicyclist through driveway on a cycle track:
• Installing pavement markings through the driveway to draw attention to entering motorists.Yield signs and pavement
markings can also be applied.
• Restrict parking for 30 feet on each side of the driveway to improve visibility.
• Ensure a sight triangle of 20 feet from a minor street to the cycle track,and 10 feet from a driveway to the cycle track.
The picture below shows a recommended clear zone and sight triangle for a cycle track at a driveway. From a driveway there should
be a horizontal clear zone of 10 feet from the driveway,and for a minor street there should be a horizontal clear zone of 20 feet from
the minor street. In addition,if on-street parking is allowed along the cycle track, it should be prohibited within 30 feet of the
driveway or minor street.

c. Intersection Treatments
At intersections,cycle tracks present a unique challenge since the bicyclist may be less visible to drivers due to the cycle track being
slightly separated from the roadway.Similar treatments used at driveways can also be applied to intersections such as restricting
parking to improve visibility,and warning signs for drivers. In addition the following treatments may be applied to improve the safety
of the cycle track for bicyclists:
• Cycle track signal phase
• Prohibit right turns
• Install warning signs for right turning motorists to yield to bicyclists.
• Option to bring bicyclists into a wide outside traffic lane just prior to intersection to improve visibility.
• Clearly indicate to turning vehicles the intended path,so drivers do not mistakenly enter the cycle track.

d. Two Stage Left Turns
For cyclists who need to turn left at an intersection,a two stage left turn should be provided. Since the cycle track is to the right of
the vehicle lanes,a bicyclist wanting to turn left at an intersection needs a way to safety cross the traffic lanes.A two stage left turn
bicycle box allows a cycle track user to do exactly that. Using the green phase the bicyclist proceeds through the intersection with
the flow of vehicles, but then pulls into a left turn bicycle box at the far end of the intersection.The bicyclist then waits in the box until
the perpendicular direction of traffic receives a green indication,and then proceeds with traffic.

f. Driveway and Side Street Treatments
In addition to the driveway treatments discussed for one-way cycle tracks,a two-way cycle track needs to provide warning
indications to motor vehicle drivers(both entering and exiting)to expect bicyclists in the contra flow direction.Yield signs,and
markings through the driveways should be used to alert drivers. Prohibiting left turns into driveways across two-way cycle tracks
should also be considered.
The image below shows a proposed treatment for a two-way cycle track across a driveway. In this image it is assumed that the left
turn into the driveway is prohibited. If the left turn movement into the driveway is allowed,a sign to warn drivers of the two-way cycle
track traffic could be considered. Whether the vehicle or bicycle has the right of way is dependent on city or state policies.Typically
at driveways,motor vehicle drivers are required to stop and yield to bicyclists(and pedestrians).

g. Intersection Treatments
In addition to intersection treatments discussed for one-way cycle tracks, intersections with two-way cycle tracks present unique
challenges due to the contra flow bicycle lane.Treatment options include:
• Prohibit right turns on red for right turning vehicles from the side street across the cycle track.
• Install bicycle signals with a leading bicycle and pedestrian phase so bicyclists enter the intersection before vehicles to
improve visibility.
• Install yield signs for right turning drivers on the main street(with the cycle track)
• Install candle sticks or safe hits at the cycle track entrance to discourage vehicles from turning into the cycle track area.
The image below shows a proposed intersection for a two-way cycle track.

Table 4: Bicycle Intersection Treatments
Bicycle intersection Treatments
Description:
Intersection treatments improve the safety of bicyclists through an intersection. Depending on the characteristics of the cross streets
(traffic and bicycle volumes,traffic and bicycle speeds,type of bicycle facility,number of vehicles and/or bikes turning,visibility,
surrounding land use,and other factors)a range of treatments may be applicable.
Criteria:
• Locations where a bicycle facility crosses a roadway that may cause bicyclists to feel unsafe without intersection
improvements.
• Level of treatment depends on cross street traffic volumes,cross section,and traffic speeds.
Typical Applications
a. Bicycle Boxes
Bicycle boxes provide a designated area at the intersection for bicyclists to get ahead of vehicles during a red traffic signal phase.
This improves the visibility of bicyclists and helps prevent right-hook conflicts. Ideal for intersections with high right turning vehicle
conflicts,or high bicycle volumes to reduce bicycle signal delay and queues.At intersections where the bicycle box extends across
all lanes in the travel direction, left turning bicyclists can position themselves ideally during the red signal phase.This treatment also
improves driver compliance at crosswalks,so high pedestrian activity(with high bicycle volumes)is another typical application.
r•
Estimated Cost Range:$5,000 to$6,000(not including annual maintenance).Markings may need to be replaced every 1 to 10
years depending on wear patterns. Replacement costs would be$5,000 to$6,000(same as initial installation).
b. Colored/Marked Bicycle Lane through the Intersection
Bicycle lanes marked through intersections help guide bicyclists along the intended travel path and alert drivers to the presence of a
bicycle lane(and bicyclists).Applications may include areas where vehicles may encroach on the bicycle lane such as ramp style
exits,across signalized intersections that are wide or complex,across driveways,and stop or yield controlled approaches.
Estimated Cost Range:$5 to$15 per square foot depending on material

Bicycle Intersection Treatments
.............................................................................................................
c. Bicycle Signals
Bicycle signals may be used for the following purposes:
• To reduce conflict at intersections where a bicycle movement conflicts with a major vehicle movement
• To improve safety at intersections near schools or parks
• To make it legal for bicycles to enter an intersection during an all-pedestrian phase
• To employ an advance green phase at intersections for bicyclists that reduce conflict and delay
• To allow bicyclists to cross an intersection diagonally at unique locations
Estimated Cost Range:$10,000 to$50,000 per intersection.
d. Two Stage Left Turn Queue Boxes
In addition to using this treatment along cycle track facilities,the two stage left turn queue box may be appropriate along facilities
with bicycle lanes.A two stage left turn queue box may be used at intersections with high volumes of left turning bicyclists,
especially along multi-lane facilities with high traffic speeds and volumes.This treatment can also be used to assist bicyclists across
streetcar or rail tracks.

Mid-Block Crossing
Description:
Mid-block crossings can be dangerous to bicyclists because drivers are not typically expecting a crossing at a non-intersection
location.The need for a mid-block crossing may arise if two bicycle facilities are off-set or if a trail junctions with a roadway mid-
block. In these situations,mid-block crossing treatments can be applied to improve the safety of a bicyclist.
Criteria:
Depending on the characteristics of the facility being crossed,different treatments may apply. Criteria to consider includes:vehicle
speed,width of the roadway,vehicle volumes,sight distance,and typical driver compliance in the region.

a. Bicycle Crossing Markings
Bicycle crossing markings can be similar to pedestrian style crossings. However,a bicycle crossing typically has two parallel sets of
markings,one for each direction of bicycle travel to help reduce head on bicycle conflicts. Pedestrians can also use the bicycle
crossing area.
The picture below shows bicycle/pedestrian crossing markings at a signalized intersection.
Estimated Cost Range:$1,000 to$3,000(depending on width of crossing). Maintenance is not included in the cost.

b. Median Refuge Island
A median refuge island allows a bicyclist to cross a street in two phases,while waiting in a comfortable space.The treatment is ideal
for multilane facilities with two-way traffic where waiting for an acceptable gap in traffic for a single phase crossing would cause
undue delay.The desired width for median is 10 feet,although 6 feet is the absolute minimum,and a median should be a minimum
of 30 feet long.
Estimated Cost Range:$15,000 to$30,000 per 100 feet

c. Rapid Flashing Beacon
A rapid flashing beacon is used in conjunction with a marked crossing. It is typically activated using a push button and indicates that
vehicles need to stop and yield to bicyclists or pedestrians using the designated crossing.A flashing beacon is typically placed on a
post on the side of the roadway, but can also be installed over a lane.These examples show pedestrian crossings,however,the
warning sign can be modified to show a bicycle,or both a bicycle and pedestrian.
Based on the NCHRP Report 562 and the studies by Charles Zeeger(see resources listed on the last page)the following criteria
applies to installing flashing beacons at unsignalized crossing locations:
• When ADT is less than 9,000—activated flashing beacons are recommended if vehicle speeds exceed 40 mph,or if the
facility is 4 lanes with speeds of 35 mph.
• When ADT is between 9,000 to 12,000—activated flashing beacons are recommended for 3 or more lanes if speeds
exceed 35 mph.
• When ADT is greater than 12,000—activated flashing beacons are recommended for 3 or more lanes if speeds exceed
30 mph.
The pictures below show a few different types of rapid flashing beacon displays.The two on the left use school signs,but could be
used for a non-school locations with a pedestrian or bicycle warning sign instead of the school crossing sign.
Estimated Cost Range:$10,000 to$20,000 per crossing(includes two to three rapid flashing beacon signs,depending whether
there is a median)

d. Off-Set Intersections
At some locations,bicycle friendly routes may continue at an offset across a busy street. One treatment option to safely connect the
offset bicycle friendly route is shown below. In this treatment,a two way cycle track is incorporated on one side of the roadway.The
cycle track guides bicyclists to cross at a particular location,which may include activated beacons or a signal depending on the
roadway characteristics.
Below are two different types of offset intersection crossings.The top image uses a path to the side of the main roadway and the
picture on the bottom shows an intersection with center bicycle lanes connecting the off-set intersections.

Table 6: Wayfinding
Wayfinding
Description:
Wayfinding is meant to be used by bicyclists to communicate directions,distance,and sometimes expected travel time to a
particular destination.Wayfinding is typically accomplished through the use of signs,however, pavement markings can supplement
the signs.Wayfinding could be applied to all types of bicycle facilities.
Criteria:
Wayfinding can be used to help bicyclists(and vehicle drivers)identify which facilities are designated as bicycle facilities.The
wayfinding may convey several factors including:
• Which roadways are designated as bicycle facilities
• Directions to key areas or connections
• Expected travel time by bicycle to key areas or connections
In particular,wayfinding is beneficial at junctions and intersections with other bicycle facilities.
Typical Applications
a. Standard signs to indicate bicycle facilities
Part 9 of the MUTCD(2009 Edition)includes"Traffic Control for Bicycle Facilities". In this section there are several standard
wayfinding signs that can be used along bicycle facilities.Some signs simply indicate the presence of a bicycle facility,while other
signs provide additional information such as destinations and distances.The pictures below show a sampling of signs from the
MUTCD and their respective sign numbers.

b. Signs with destinations and expected travel times
Below are two examples of wayfinding signs unique to different cities.The sign on the left indicates direction,distance,and
expected travel time by bicycle.The sign on the right indicates direction and distance.
Estimated Cost Range:$30 to$75 per sign(plus installation)

c. Pavement markings
Pavement markings can be used to supplement signs. Below is an example of a pavement marking used to indicate the direction of
the continued bicycle facility.
Sharrows and bicycle lane symbols can also be considered wayfinding treatments in the sense that they help identify a facility as a
bicycle facility.
Estimated Cost Range:$50 to$250 per marking depending on size and material(plus installation)

d. Maps
Portable maps indicating bicycle and pedestrian around the City could be provided to assist bicyclists and pedestrians in wayfinding.
Maps could be provided at public facilities such as City Hall and libraries as well as bicycle shops or other interested vendors. In
addition,the maps could be available electronically through the City's website.
Estimated Cost Range:$0 to$5 for a paper map(in some cities a private vendor sponsors the map which could make it free or low
cost to the City of Spokane Valley).

e. Mobile Applications
As technology continues to advance, private industries will likely develop apps that can be used on mobile devices to assist
bicyclists navigating around the City of Spokane Valley.

Table 7: Shared Use Bicycle Paths
Shared Use Bicycle Paths
Description:
Shared use paths are physically separated from the roadway,and are intended to be used by pedestrians,bicyclists, runners,and
other non-motorized users.A shared use path can supplement a thorough system of on street facilities in a city,and connect to the
on-street system at end points of the trail as well as midpoints depending on the length and location.
Criteria:
The following characteristics can be used when considering which facilities could serve as appropriate shared use path:
• A shared use path can be provided when on-street facilities are not an option and when separate right of way is available
(such as a former railroad line).
• The number of driveways and crossings should be minimized. According to the Idaho Department of Transportation, if
there are more than 8 crossings per mile,an on-street facility should be considered instead.
• Where crossings cannot be avoided, special design treatments should be used to treat potential conflicts.
Typical Applications
a. Bicycle and Pedestrian Shared Use Path
The following design criteria should be considered:
• Minimum paved width of a shared use path is 10 feet,although 12 to 14 feet(or more)is preferred especially if the use is
expected to be moderate to heavy(AASHTO).
• Two feet of additional clearance should be provided on either side of the path.
• An 8 foot path may be appropriate under some circumstances(bicycle and pedestrian use is expected to be consistently
low,the alignment allows for safe and frequent passing opportunities,and maintenance vehicles are not expected to drive
on the path which would could subject the pavement edges to damage).
• Markings to separate bicyclists from pedestrians on a shared use path are not necessary, but a centerline marking to
separate two-way traffic is appropriate on pathways with heavy peak or seasonal volumes.
• The surface should be asphalt to accommodate all types of non-motorized users.
Below are pictures of a two-way shared use path. On the left,the path runs along an active railroad line on the left and an industrial
facility on the right, both separated by a fence. In the photo on the right,the path runs along a neighborhood(left side)and a
freeway and light rail line(right side).
• I
h T Lq
Estimated Cost Range:$250,000 to$500,000 per mile(includes asphalt surface,signing,striping,wayfinding,drainage,and limited
crossings,does not include design costs).

...............................................................................................................................
b. Crossings on Shared Use Paths
At locations where the shared use path crosses other roadways or driveways,appropriate indications and warnings should be
provided for both the path user and roadway user to prevent conflict.The design team should consider the characteristics of the
path and roadway at the crossing and determine whether the path user or the roadway user should have the right of way.
In the picture below,path users are required to stop at the roadway crossing.

Cross Sections
The following tables illustrate how to convert roadways with specific paved widths into bicycle friendly
route and different types of bicycle lanes. Each cross section identifies which facilities within the City of
Spokane Valley meet the cross section requirements and are recommended as bicycle facilities in the
Master Plan (see map 11.5).

Appendix 3: Funding Source Ideas
Public Sector Funding Sources
FEDERAL:
Federal transportation policy is to increase non-motorized transportation to at least 15 percent of all trips
and to simultaneously reduce the number of non-motorized users killed or injured in traffic crashes by at
least 10 percent. This policy, which was adopted in 1994 as part of the National Bicycling and Walking
Study, remains a high priority for the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).
Improving conditions and safety for bicycling and walking embodies the spirit and intent of Federal
surface transportation law and policy to create an integrated, intermodal transportation system which
provides travelers with a real choice of transportation modes. State and local agencies are challenged to
work together cooperatively with transportation providers, user groups, and the public to develop plans,
programs, and projects which reflect this vision. At the Federal level, the Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA) is working with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the Federal Transit
Administration (FTA), the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), and other agencies, to implement the
bicycle and pedestrian provisions of Federal surface transportation law.
Federal surface transportation law provides tremendous flexibility to States and MPOs to fund bicycle and
pedestrian improvements from a wide variety of programs. Virtually all the major transportation funding
programs can be used for bicycle and pedestrian-related projects. When considering ways to improve
conditions for bicycling and walking, States and MPOs are specifically encouraged to include bicycle and
pedestrian improvements as an incidental part of larger projects, as described above, and to review and
use the most appropriate funding source for a particular project. Many bicycle and pedestrian projects are
more suitable for funding under the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) Improvement Program,
Surface Transportation Program, or other federal programs.
There is a wide range of other federal funds that can be used for bicycling and walking facilities. The most
common include:
• Funds through federal land agencies such as the National Forest Service, National Park
Service or Bureau of Land Management. These funds are primarily for trails on federal lands.
• Community Development Block Grants through HUD the Department of Housing and Urban
Development provides funds for community-based projects. Examples of the types of projects
they fund are:
O Commercial district streetscape improvements
O Sidewalk improvements
O Safe routes to school
O Neighborhood-based bicycling and walking facilities that improve local transportation
options or help revitalize neighborhoods
• Recreational Trails Program (RTP) funds come from the Federal Highway Trust Fund, and
represent a portion of the motor fuel excise tax collected from non-highway recreational fuel use:
fuel used for off-highway recreation by snowmobiles, all-terrain vehicles, off-highway motorcycles,
and off-highway light trucks. The RTP funds are distributed to the States by legislative formula:
half of the funds are distributed equally among all States, and half are distributed in proportion to
the estimated amount of non-highway recreational fuel use in each State. See the Funding Levels
by State. The distribution model is based on a report for FHWA by the Oak Ridge National
Laboratory in July 1999 (Fuel Used for Off-Road Recreation: A Reassessment of the Fuel Use
Model).
• Transportation Enhancements (TE) investments benefit communities through rehabilitation of
historic facilities related to transportation, renovated streetscapes, rail-trails and other
transportation trails, transportation museums, and scenic and historic highway program visitor

centers. This website is a resource to States providing official legislation and guidance
documents. The National Transportation Enhancements Clearinghouse (NTEC) also has a
website which includes an introduction to TE, how to find out about the TE program in each State,
see project examples, access a database of TE projects, see how States use TE funds, and order
TE related documents.
The National Transportation Enhancements Clearinghouse has prepared a useful Technical Brief:
Financing and Funding for Trails that cites over thirty federal and national funding sources that could be
used to help fund bicycling and walking facilities and/or programs, especially trails.
STATE:
Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT)—Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Grants
Program Purpose
The Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Grants were established to address the nearly 400 statewide fatal and
injury collisions involving pedestrians and bicycles each year. These safety focused projects may also
support increased mobility and encourage more people to bicycle and walk.
Eligible Applicants
Only agencies that have been contacted with an invitation to apply for funding are eligible apply. Projects
submitted by agencies who have not been contacted will not be considered.
Invitations to submit applications will be sent to public agencies where WSDOT has identified known
pedestrian and bicycle risk locations. Please see the invitational methodology to learn more on how the
process took place.
Examples of Eligible Projects
Engineering improvements — based on recent state and national research, arterial streets in urban
areas with higher speeds and volumes are the locations with the most collisions and risk. The research
also indicates that several treatments may effectively reduce pedestrian and bicycle collisions at these
locations. Projects may include items such as:
• Intersection improvements such as: curb extensions, lighting, raised median, crosswalk
enhancements, signs, signals and mid-block crossing treatments;
• Completing bicycle lanes and sidewalks;
• Constructing bicycle and pedestrian paths;
• Providing safe routes to transit;
• Pedestrian and bicycle safety improvements for at risk groups (children, elderly and people with
disabilities).
Education efforts — inform the public about projects and how they improves safety, educate the public
about biking and walking safety in general, and include the broad range of transportation choices and
events and activities that promote walking and biking safely. Projects may include items such as:
• Implementation of educational curricula.
• Distribution of educational materials.
• Walk or bike promotional programs.
• Pedestrian sting operations.
Other WSDOT Funding Sources for Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities
WSDOT works closely with local, county and regional organizations to balance transportation needs with
community values and environmental goals. There are several state and federal funding sources that may
be available to support these efforts:

State of Washington—Transportation Improvement Board
(TIB) TIB Funding Programs for Urban Customers - Urban Sidewalk Program
TIB typically issues a Call for Projects each summer with applications due at the end of August.
The Sidewalk Program was established by the Legislature to provide funding for pedestrian projects. The
program is available to both small city and urban agencies. Urban and small city projects compete
separately.
To be eligible for the program:
• The intent of the project must be transportation and not recreation.
• The project must be on a federally classified route (principal, minor, or collector).
Projects improve pedestrian safety, access, connectivity, and address system continuity. Completed
projects must be consistent with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
Projects are usually large in scale with multiple funding sources ranging from local contribution to private
developer fees. These projects are selected annually on a competitive basis. Each program has distinct
characteristics for the best suited project. Qualification and criteria are different within each program.
Once selected, TIB staff provides grant oversight, participates in Value Engineering (VE) studies, and
acts as facilitators to bring projects to completion.

Safe Routes to School Mini-grants
About Safe Routes to School Mini-grants
The goal of Safe Routes to School (SRTS) programs is to enable and encourage children to safely walk
and bicycle to school. SRTS programs are implemented nationwide by parents, schools, community
leaders, and local, state, and tribal governments.
The aim of the mini-grants is to use student creativity and leadership skills to increase safe walking and
bicycling to school. Successful applications will include one or a combination of the following: student-led
activities, concern for the environment, and/or promotion of physical activity. Activities funded by the mini-
grants must be part of a new or existing Safe Routes to School program.
Applicant Eligibility
Eligible applicants include:
• Faculty, staff, or parent volunteers at elementary or middle schools;
• Adult-supervised elementary or middle school groups or clubs;
• Adult-supervised high school groups/clubs that wish to partner with a nearby elementary or
middle school;
• Local governments;
• Tribal governments; and/or
• Community-based or private non-profit organizations engaged in improving safety for and
increasing the number of children who safely walk or ride a bicycle to school.
Eligible Activities
The schools at which mini-grant activities will occur must be elementary or middle schools. Also, these
schools must be either starting new SRTS program activities or events, or currently conducting SRTS
activities and want to expand them.
The National Center is providing mini-grants for creative ideas that are youth-focused and that may
explore related issues such as: How do students encourage their peers and the adults in their lives to
walk and bicycle safely to school? How do students and others make the connection between safe routes
to school and environmental or physical activity issues?
Examples of eligible activities include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Students encouraging peers/parents to find opportunities to walk or bicycle, starting with the trip
to school.
• Students connecting the choice to walk or bicycle with helping the environment.
• Students connecting the choice to walk or bicycle with better health.
• Students developing messages for parents/other drivers to drive safely, especially in school
zones and neighborhoods.
From carbon calculators to social marketing campaigns, from audits of school environments to
communicating with local politicians and/or government officials, submit a proposal for a project that can
make a difference at your school or community.
Activities funded by the mini-grants must have the potential to have long-term impacts.
Although it is not required, applicants may want to collect student travel data as part of their application in
order to have more information about current rates of walking and bicycling to school. This information
Chapter 11—Bike and Pedestrian Master Program,Appendix 3: Funding Sources
Adopted 10-25-2011, Effective 11-09-2011 Page 5 of 8
City of Spokane Valley Comprehensive Plan
may help applicants decide on appropriate activities. For more information about data collection, and for
student travel tally forms, please see www.saferoutesinfo.org/data.
Selection Criteria
All applications that meet the eligibility requirements above will be reviewed by a committee that will aim
to make awards to:
• A broad geographic distribution of recipients;
• Applicants representing a variety of program types;
• Applicants who provide a clear description of how funding will be used to begin new programs
or advance current projects or programs with activities that fit with eligibility requirements
outlined above; and
• Projects or programs that align with SRTS goals of encouraging more children to walk and
bicycle to school safely.
Funding Restrictions
Mini-grant funds may not be used for staff salaries, fundraising, food or refreshments, or cash prizes.
The mini-grant funds are Federal funds, and there are Federal restrictions on how the funds are spent. If
you have questions about funding eligibility for specific activities, please email info @saferoutesinfo.orq.
Reporting Requirements
Mini-grant recipients will be required to submit an informal written report on activities midway through the
implementation period. Recipients will also be required to submit a formal report at the end of the
implementation period (June/July 2010) that provides information about the project. The formal report will
include the following:
• Budget report of actual expenditures
• Description of the project's activities, challenges, successes, and participation rates
• At least three digital pictures that show one or more activities of the funded project
Mini-grant recipients may be required to complete a brief questionnaire after the grant period.
Private Sector funding Sources
Local
There are many examples of local communities creating revenue streams to improve conditions for
bicycling and walking. Three common approaches include: special bond issues, dedications of a portion
of local sales taxes or a voter-approved sales tax increase, and use of the annual capital improvement
budgets of Public Works and/or Parks agencies.
Some examples follow:
• The City of Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Bernalillo County, have a 5 percent set-aside of
street bond funds which go to trails and bikeways. For the City, this has amounted to
approximately $1.2 million every two years. City voters last year passed a 1/4 cent gross
receipts tax for transportation which includes approximately $1 million per year for the next ten
years for trail development. Many on-street facilities are developed as a part of other road
projects.
• Pinellas County, Florida built much of the Pinellas Trail system with a portion of a one cent
sales tax increase voted for by county residents.
• Seattle, Washington approved a nine year levy (property tax) in the fall of 2006 that provides
five million dollars a year for pedestrian and bicycle projects.

• Denver, Colorado invested $5 million in its emerging trail network with a bond issue, which also
funded the city's bike planner for a number of years.
• Eagle County, Colorado (which includes Vail) voters passed a transportation tax that earmarks
10 percent for trails, about$300,000 a year.
• In Colorado Springs, Colorado, 20 percent of the new open space sales tax is designated for
trail acquisition and development; about$5-6 million per year.
Local Organizations
Shared-use trails have spawned a widespread movement of local non-profit organizations. Many of them
have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to plan and construct trails.
Land Trusts
The environmental land trust movement has mushroomed in the past twenty years. Many of these
organizations have raised funds to purchase land where trails are built, especially Rails-to-Trails.
Businesses
There is increasing corporate and business involvement in trail and conservation projects. Employers
recognize that creating places to bike and walk is one way to build community and attract a quality work
force. Bicycling and outdoor recreation businesses often support local projects and programs.
• In Evansville, Indiana, a boardwalk is being built with corporate donations from Indiana Power
and Light Co. and the Wal-Mart Foundation.
• In Arizona, trail directional and interpretive signs are being provided by the Salt River Project a
local utility. Other corporate sponsors of the Arizona Trail are the Hughes Missile Systems,
BHP Cooper, and Pace American, Inc.
• Recreational Equipment, Inc. has long been a financial supporter of local trail and conservation
projects.
• The Kodak Company now supports the American Greenways Awards program of The
Conservation Fund, which was started in partnership with the DuPont Company. This annual
awards program provides grants of up to $2500 to local greenway projects for any activities
related to greenway advocacy, planning, design or development.
For further details and tips for accessing the corporate and business community contact the Trails and
Greenways Clearinghouse at the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy: I-877-GRNWAYS (476-9297).
Community Fundraising & Partnering
Community fundraising and creative partnerships are plentiful. A common approach is to find creative
ways to break a large project into small pieces that can be "purchased" by the public. Some examples:
• In Ashtabula, Ohio the local trail organization raised one-third of the money they needed to buy
the land for the trail, by forming a "300 Club." Three hundred acres were needed for the trail
and they set a goal of finding 300 folks who would finance one acre each. The land price was
$400 an acre and they found just over 100 people to buy an honorary acre, raising over
$40,000.
• In Jackson County, Oregon they had a "Yard Sale."The Bear Creek Greenway Foundation sold
symbolic "yards" of the trail and placed donor's names on permanent markers that are located
at each trailhead. At $40 a yard, they raised enough in private cash donations to help match
their $690,000 Transportation Enhancements program award for the 18-mile Bear Creek Trail
linking Medford, Talent, Phoenix and Ashland.
• Selling bricks for local sidewalk projects, especially those in historic areas or on downtown Main
Streets, is increasingly common. Donor names are engraved in each brick, and a tremendous
amount of publicity and community support is purchased along with basic construction
materials. Portland, Oregon's downtown Pioneer Square is a good example of such a project.

• In Colorado Springs, the Rock Island Rail-Trail is being partly funded by the Rustic Hills
Improvement Association, a group of local home-owners living adjacent to the trail. Also, ten
miles of the trail were cleared of railroad ties by a local boy scout troop.
• A pivotal 40-acre section of the Ice Age Trail between the cities of Madison and Verona,
Wisconsin, was acquired with the help of the Madison Area Youth Soccer Association. The
soccer association agreed to a fifty year lease of 30 acres of the parcel for a soccer complex,
providing a substantial part of the $600,000 acquisition price.
Foundations
A wide range of foundations have provided funding for bicycling and walking. A few national and large
regional foundations have supported the national organizations involved in pedestrian and bicycle policy
advocacy. However it is usually regional and local foundations that get involved in funding particular
bicycle, pedestrian or trail projects. These same foundations may also fund statewide and local advocacy
efforts as well. The best way to find such foundations is through the research and information services
provided by the national Foundation Center (http://foundationcenter.orq). They maintain a huge store of
information including the guidelines and application procedures for most foundations, and their past
funding records.
Grant Writing Tips
The following are some helpful tips for successful grant writing (e.g., for government grants and private
foundations):
1. Read the directions and applications thoroughly.
2. Find out what projects were previously funded.
3. Obtain a copy of a successful application.
4. Find out who reviews the applications and talk to him or her; it may be an individual or a larger
group.
5. Always include a picture and graphic that quickly conveys what is being asked for in the
proposal.
6. Identify key words and concepts in the grant application and then use them in your narrative.
7. Convey a sense of urgency for example, if funding is not obtained, something of value such
as a rail corridor that will be lost.
8. Provide a timeline demonstrate that the project is ready to go once funding is secured.
9. Focus on a tangible product e.g., construct something, purchase some property, etc.;
minimize the amount that goes for overhead and design.
10. Demonstrate that you are leveraging funds and that this is not the only funding source; no one
wants to be a sole source of funds for a project or program.
1 1. Demonstrate community support through letters from neighborhood associations, advocacy
groups, and local businesses.
