Description

northbound Shellmound between Bay and Ohlone Way - the construction site on the east side of the street has closed the pedestrian sidewalk, and has put plywoodon the ground halfway across the bike lanecreating a significant lip in the middle of the bikeway.

I don't know if this construction impact was approved, but a better approach would be to convert one of the two northbound car travel lanes here to retain both the pedestrian sidewalk and the bike lane throughout constructio - the temp pedestrian path should have accessible ramps and solid barrier protection along the outside so as to be navigable by people with disabilities - the plywood in the bike lane also needs to be addressed

Ideally these should be standard treatments Emeryville requires for every development project , to prioritize continuous, safe and accessible bike/walk access throughou constructiont
