  • 1300-1318 North Cambridge Street Orange, California - Orange
    Right Turn Only lanes - Cambridge @ Katella; The City of Orange has painted the BIKE LANE on the right edge of the RIGHT TURN ONLY LANE, leading bicyclists to go straight on across Katella in conflict with right turning vehicles, or worse, to turn left onto Katella from the right curb lane. BIKE LANE should be dashed out BEFORE the right turn only lane begins, and extend between the split through & right turn lanes to facilitate bicyclists going straight. Bikes turning right can use the right turn only lane as any vehicle. Bikes going straight should NOT be using the right turn only lane. Newport and Lake Forest facilitate proper bicycle lane position with extending the BIKE LANE like this, and in addition, post a sign that says "BEGIN RIGHT TURN LANE YIELD TO BIKES" alerting motorists that they are crossing a Class 2 Bike Lane as they approach Katella.
  • Portola Parkway Irvine, California - Irvine
    The Portola Side Path Bikeway used to follow Portola here - but the City of Irvine allowed the Irvine Company to tear up the side path and put a right turn pocket into their development. There wis no accommodation for safely managing 2 way bicycle traffic across a free right turn from EB Portola.
  • Sabiosa Irvine, California - Irvine
    Some how the City of Irvine allowed the Pavilion Park neighborhood to build a dead end bike way that does NOT connect to homes just west of their neighborhood. Perfectly good bikeway to no where...

  • 3102 West Alton Avenue Santa Ana, California - Santa Ana
    In the Alton Side Path / Pacific Electric Bike Path there is a square storm drain - in the pathway - that has grates parallel to travel & wide enough to catch a narrow tire. Should be placed perpendicular to travel for safety standards.
  • 2178-2620 Edinger Avenue Tustin, CA - Tustin
    Tustin is putting Tustin Ranch bridge over Edinger.
    Rather than reducing 3 lanes of traffic to 2, and accommodating pedestrians and cyclists, the bike lane is CLOSED and bikes are required to merge into 45 MPH vehicle traffic. This solution is on both east bound and west bound sides. A sign tells pedestrians that they can not use Edinger. That has to be illegal, and there is no choice but turn back to Redhill or Harvard. There are no detour signs warning at Redhill or Harvard telling pedestrians to detour MILES around Edinger closure and no reasonable detour is provided, so of course pedestrians will walk in the street anyway or on the railroad right of way on the west bound side rather than retreat & get to Walnut or Dyer, the two parallel options .
  • El Toro Rd Lake Forest, CA - Mission Viejo
    Need safe connector up to cross walk at NW corner of El Toro Rd & Marguerite Pkwy. Current access to El Toro Rd requires riding wrong way against traffic or making an illegal left to get to Margarite Pkwy from Aliso Creek Bikeway

    Replace loose gravel with packed DG or asphalt - NE corner of El Toro Rd & Portola Pkwy

  • Jeffrey Open Space Trail Irvine, CA - Oak Creek
    Green steel utility box (SCE? Sprinkler control?) is in the down hill road way of the JOST side path - could have hazard stripes painted around it on ground and reflective tape on corners
  • Irvine Blvd Irvine, CA - Lower Peters Canyon
    Bike Lane stripe is broken to allow motorists to enter & turn right onto toll road OFF RAMP
  • San Diego Creek Trail Irvine, CA - West Park
    Trail has gone under Barranca for years - Put a temporary gate / closure North of here to block the Peters Canyon Trail until open to Warner - but stop making riders go west on the wrong side of Barranca from Lower Peters Canyon trail / San Diego Creek Trail !
  • Barranca Pkwy Irvine, CA - Tustin
    Sign to Bike Trail => posted PAST the curb cut to get on the new side path! Should be back where Bike Lane Ends sign was posted
  • Tustin Ranch Irvine, CA - Tustin
    west bound bike lane was removed from Tustin Ranch to Armstrong Ave when lines were re-striped. Could have shifted center to island and left a shoulder but bike lane was sacrificed with out even leaving a shoulder at NW corner.
  • Portola Pkwy Irvine, CA - Irvine
    Sign says side walk ends - but it obviously continues half way to Jeffrey & then the shoulder is walkable / bike-able - so why make people go around a sign in the way or walk in the street? or worse - ride in the street on wrong side - to get to the Hicks Canyon Trail ?
  • 9371 Irvine Blvd Irvine, CA - East Industrial Complex
    Barracade K-Rails in bike lane - no margin - could have reduced & merged a lane & stripped bike lane along outside the rail section !
