Description

Extensive safety upgrades are needed for the very busy Bay Trail crossing of University Ave in Berkeley. The crosswalk needs to be repainted, and higher viz markings with bike stencils and green paint would be appropriate here as well. The stop markings for drivers on all sides of the intersection also need to be redone. Lastly, the visibility between southbound path users about to cross University and car traffic is terrible due to the large bushes obscuring the view at the NW corner of the intersection. These bushes need to be removed entirely and the path should be reoriented across that location to meet the crosswalk straight on.
