1. INTRODUCTION
The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT), through the Planning Assistance for Rural Areas (PARA) program, awarded
funding for the City of Sierra Vista Safe Bicycle and Pedestrian Routes Plan. The purpose of the PARA program is to assist
counties, cities, towns, and tribal communities in rural Arizona in addressing a broad range of multimodal transportation planning
issues, including roadway and non-motorized modes of travel. The
primary products of the City of Sierra Vista Safe Bicycle and Pedes-trian
Routes Plan are:
~~Sierra Vista Bicycle and Pedestrian Routes Map
~~Identification of bicycle and pedestrian needs and
deficiencies in the City of Sierra Vista
~~Recommended projects, programs, and studies to improve
bicycle and pedestrian safety and comfort in the City of
Sierra Vista (City)
2. FHWA SUPPORT FOR BICYCLES AND PEDESTRIANS
Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has consistently reaffirmed its support for bicycle and pedestrian accommodation. In
a memorandum dated February 24, 1999, FHWA emphasized that bicycle and pedestrian facilities are a critical element of the
local, regional, and national transportation system. The memorandum states:
“We expect every transportation agency to make accommodation for bicycling and walking a routine part of their plan-ning,
design, construction, operations and maintenance activities....
Increasing bicycling and walking offers the potential for cleaner air, healthier people, reduced congestion, more livable
communities, and more efficient use of precious road space and resources” (Accessed on 5/13/2011 at http://www.fhwa.
dot.gov/environment/bikeped/memo.htm).
FHWA and U.S. Department of Transportation reaffirmed their support for bicycle and pedestrian accommodation on March 15,
2010 (U.S. Department of Transportation Policy Statement on Bicycle and Pedestrian Accommodation Regulations and Recom-mendations,
March 15, 2010) by directing transportation agencies to:
“Consider[ing] walking and bicycling as equals with other transportation modes: The primary goal of a transportation
system is to safely and efficiently move people and goods. Walking and bicycling are efficient transportation modes for
most short trips…. Because of the benefits they provide, transportation agencies should give the same priority to walking
and bicycling as is given to other transportation modes. Walking and bicycling should not be an afterthought in roadway
design” (Accessed on 5/13/2011 at http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/environment/bikeped/memo.htm).

3. SIERRA VISTA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN ROUTES MAP
The Sierra Vista Bicycle and Pedestrian Routes Map includes the existing City of Sierra Vista shared-use path network, on-street bicycle lanes, and other local streets suitable for bicycles and pedestrians. The map is designed to be easily understandable and utilized by the public and includes bicycle and pedestrian routes that connect key nodes such as schools, parks, and commercial centers. The map will be made available for free distribution at City Hall and on the City’s website at the conclusion of the study.
4. BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN NEEDS AND DEFICIENCIES
Needs and deficiencies were identified through a combination of Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) input, public input at an open house meeting, and data and field review completed by the project team. Key needs and deficiencies include:
Bicycle and pedestrian safety education campaign~~
Designated bicycle lanes and bicycle routes~~
Detection of bicyclists at signalized intersections~~
“Share the Road” signage~~
Pedestrian and bicycle access to Fry Boulevard~~
Maintenance of existing bicycle lanes~~
Bike lane striping at intersections~~
Shared-use paths and sidewalks~~
5. RECOMMENDED POLICIES, PROGRAMS, AND STUDIES
Projects, programs, and studies are proposed that upon implementation will improve safety and comfort for bicyclists and pedestrians in the City.
1 Develop and implement a city-wide bicycle and pedestrian safety education campaignÂÂ
An education campaign should be targeted to all roadway users (bicyclists, pedestrians, and motorists), as well as to law enforcement, planners, and engineers. A key message of the campaign will be that bicyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as motorists.
2. Require bicycle lanes and either sidewalks or shared-use paths as part of new construction or major reconstrucÂÂtion of principal, major, and minor arterials and collector streets
Bike lanes have been found to provide more consistent separation between bicyclists and passing motorists than shared travel lanes. Bike lane stripe results in fewer erratic motor vehicle driver maneuvers, more predictable bicyclist riding behavior, and enhanced comfort levels for both motorists and bicyclists. 4

August 2011 F i nal Report
ÂÂ 3. Establish a program of regular sweeping of bike lanes, shared roadways, and shared-use paths
The City currently has a regular maintenance program that includes street sweeping of streets and shared-use paths. It is
recommended that the City include bicycle routes in a routine of regular sweeping.
ÂÂ 4. Install or reconfigure video detection of bicyclists at traffic signals
New or improved traffic signals should include video detection that is configured to detect bicyclists riding in the street, including
in a bicycle lane or shoulder.
ÂÂ 5. Install pedestrian countdown signals at traffic signals
New or improved traffic signals should include pedestrian countdown signals to improve pedestrian safety when crossing
streets.
ÂÂ 6. Consider travel lane width reductions to accommodate bicycle lanes
Many roadways in urban areas, including in Sierra Vista, were originally constructed without bicycle lanes. Busy urban arterials
without bicycle lanes often act as deterrents to bicycle travel. Many
city streets can be retrofitted to include bicycle lanes by narrowing
the travel lanes to allow room for bicycle lanes.
ÂÂ 7. Install bicycle lane striping and signing at intersections
New or reconstructed intersections, with right-turn lanes, should
be constructed or reconstructed to include bicycle lane treatments
at the intersections, including a striped bicycle lane that creates a
buffer between bicyclists and motorized vehicles and increases the
visibility of bicyclists.
ÂÂ 8. Install raised pedestrian refuge crossing islands at
marked and unmarked cross walks on arterials and high traffic volume collectors
Raised pedestrian refuge islands (crossing islands) are raised islands placed in the street at intersection or mid-block locations
to separate crossing pedestrians from motor vehicles. Pedestrian refuge islands should be considered for implementation at
marked crosswalks and mid-block locations on high volume roadways such as Fry Boulevard. FHWA guidance states that
raised pedestrian refuge islands should be considered particularly in areas where there are mixtures of a significant number of
pedestrians, high volumes of traffic (more than 12,000 ADT), and intermediate or high travel speeds.
ÂÂ 9. Install bicycle route signs, bike lane signs, and shared lane markings on the City of Sierra Vista Bicycle Network
The City of Sierra Vista Bicycle and Pedestrian Routes Map presents the existing bicycle and pedestrian network. Expansion
and improvements to the network of bike lanes and shared roadways should include new bike lanes and the installation of
bicycle route and shared roadway signs.
ÂÂ 10. Routinely provide a sidewalk or pathway on BOTH sides of the street
All new and reconstructed roadways should include a sidewalk or pathway on both sides of the road. From an implementation
perspective, in general, sidewalks should be constructed along existing roadways when curb and gutter for drainage is installed.

August 2011 F i nal Report
ÂÂ 11. Develop and adopt a Complete Streets policy
It is recommended that the City Council develop and adopt a Complete Streets policy that directs future investment in transpor-tation
infrastructure to consider the needs of all users. As described by
the Complete Streets Coalition:
“By adopting a Complete Streets policy, communities direct
their transportation planners and engineers to routinely design
and operate the entire right-of-way to enable safe access for
all users, regardless of age, ability, or mode of transportation.
This means that every transportation project will make the street
network better and safer for drivers, transit users, pedestrians,
and bicyclists – making your town a better place to live.”
ÂÂ 12. Recommended studies
Additional studies and plans are proposed to continue to address
multimodal needs and deficiencies in the City.
A. Sidewalk inventory and assessment
Conduct a sidewalk inventory to identify existing sidewalk gaps in the City’s pedestrian network, and to develop an implementa-tion
plan to address the gaps.
B. Warrant studies for mid-block pedestrian crossings
Conduct a detailed analysis of pedestrian crossings on Fry Boulevard to identify pedestrian crossing improvements at signalized
intersections, and to identify appropriate locations and necessary infrastructure for mid-block pedestrian crossings.
C. Shared-use path / multi-use path pavement alternatives
Identify and evaluate alternative, ADA compliant, all-weather surfaces for City shared-use paths. Budgetary limitations may
necessitate that alternative surfaces be considered that would reduce the cost to construct and maintain City shared-use paths.
D. Action Plan to achieve League of American Bicyclists, Bicycle Friendly Community (BFC) Designation and Pedestrian and
Bicycle Information Center, Walk Friendly Communities Designation
Develop and adopt an action plan to provide strategic direction toward successful designation as a Bicycle Friendly City by the
League of American Bicyclists, and as a Walk Friendly Community by the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center.
E. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan
It is recommended that the City develop an ADA Transition Plan to identify and address ADA deficiencies and implementation
schedule.
6. RECOMMENDED PRIORITIZED PROJECTS
Specific project recommendations include an expansion of the existing bicycle lanes network, new shared-use paths, and new
shared roadway projects. The prioritized projects are listed in Table E-1. Project numbers correspond to those depicted in
Figures E-1 and E-2.
Projects were prioritized by considering how the proposed projects meet the needs of Sierra Vista residents in the areas of
accessibility, safety, and connectivity, and by balancing these factors with the cost and complexity of the project. Table E-1
includes the prioritization as high, medium, or low-priority project.

Shared Roadways
Shared roadways are local roadways with relatively low vehicular traffic and a speed limit of 35 miles per hour or less, making them ideally suited for bicycle travel. Shared roadways provide continuity to other bicycle facilities (shared-use paths or bike lanes), or serve as alternatives to routes with higher traffic volumes and speeds.
Bicycle Lanes
Bicycle lanes are proposed on arterial and collector streets with vehicular speeds of 25 miles per hour or more, and where adequate street width exists. Many City streets may require travel lane width reduction to accommodate the bicycle lanes.
Shared-use Paths
Shared-use paths are generally 8 to 12 feet wide, are separated from vehicular traffic, and only allow non-motorized uses. This Plan supplements and expands upon those proposed in the City of Sierra Vista General Plan.
7. FUNDING SOURCES
Various funding sources are identified that are eligible to be utilized for bicycle and pedestrian improvements. These include:
National Highway System (NHS)~~
Bridge Program~~
Surface Transportation Program (STP)~~
Transportation Enhancement Activity~~
Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)~~
Safe Routes to School~~
State and Community Traffic Safety Program, Section 402~~

INTRODUCTION The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT), through the Planning Assistance for Rural Areas (PARA) program, awarded funding for the City of Sierra Vista Safe Bicycle and Pedestrian Routes Plan. The purpose of the PARA program is to assist counties, cities, towns, and tribal communities in rural Arizona in addressing a broad range of multimodal transportation planning issues, including roadway and non-motorized modes of travel. The primary products of the City of Sierra Vista Safe Bicycle and Pedes-trian Routes Plan are: ~~Sierra Vista Bicycle and Pedestrian Routes Map ~~Identification of bicycle and pedestrian needs and deficiencies in the City of Sierra Vista ~~Recommended projects, programs, and studies to improve bicycle and pedestrian safety and comfort in the City of Sierra Vista (City) 2. FHWA SUPPORT FOR BICYCLES AND PEDESTRIANS Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has consistently reaffirmed its support for bicycle and pedestrian accommodation. In a memorandum dated February 24, 1999, FHWA emphasized that bicycle and pedestrian facilities are a critical element of the local, regional, and national transportation system. The memorandum states: “We expect every transportation agency to make accommodation for bicycling and walking a routine part of their plan-ning, design, construction, operations and maintenance activities.... Increasing bicycling and walking offers the potential for cleaner air, healthier people, reduced congestion, more livable communities, and more efficient use of precious road space and resources” (Accessed on 5/13/2011 at http://www.fhwa. dot.gov/environment/bikeped/memo.htm). FHWA and U.S. Department of Transportation reaffirmed their support for bicycle and pedestrian accommodation on March 15, 2010 (U.S. Department of Transportation Policy Statement on Bicycle and Pedestrian Accommodation Regulations and Recom-mendations, March 15, 2010) by directing transportation agencies to: “Consider[ing] walking and bicycling as equals with other transportation modes: The primary goal of a transportation system is to safely and efficiently move people and goods. Walking and bicycling are efficient transportation modes for most short trips…. Because of the benefits they provide, transportation agencies should give the same priority to walking and bicycling as is given to other transportation modes. Walking and bicycling should not be an afterthought in roadway design” (Accessed on 5/13/2011 at http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/environment/bikeped/memo.htm). 3 91374039 2011 08 18 Sierra Vista Final.doc August 2011 F i n al Report 3. SIERRA VISTA BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN ROUTES MAP The Sierra Vista Bicycle and Pedestrian Routes Map includes the existing City of Sierra Vista shared-use path network, on-street bicycle lanes, and other local streets suitable for bicycles and pedestrians. The map is designed to be easily understandable and utilized by the public and includes bicycle and pedestrian routes that connect key nodes such as schools, parks, and commercial centers. The map will be made available for free distribution at City Hall and on the City’s website at the conclusion of the study. 4. BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN NEEDS AND DEFICIENCIES Needs and deficiencies were identified through a combination of Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) input, public input at an open house meeting, and data and field review completed by the project team. Key needs and deficiencies include: Bicycle and pedestrian safety education campaign~~ Designated bicycle lanes and bicycle routes~~ Detection of bicyclists at signalized intersections~~ “Share the Road” signage~~ Pedestrian and bicycle access to Fry Boulevard~~ Maintenance of existing bicycle lanes~~ Bike lane striping at intersections~~ Shared-use paths and sidewalks~~ 5. RECOMMENDED POLICIES, PROGRAMS, AND STUDIES Projects, programs, and studies are proposed that upon implementation will improve safety and comfort for bicyclists and pedestrians in the City. 1 Develop and implement a city-wide bicycle and pedestrian safety education campaignÂÂ An education campaign should be targeted to all roadway users (bicyclists, pedestrians, and motorists), as well as to law enforcement, planners, and engineers. A key message of the campaign will be that bicyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as motorists. 2. Require bicycle lanes and either sidewalks or shared-use paths as part of new construction or major reconstrucÂÂtion of principal, major, and minor arterials and collector streets Bike lanes have been found to provide more consistent separation between bicyclists and passing motorists than shared travel lanes. Bike lane stripe results in fewer erratic motor vehicle driver maneuvers, more predictable bicyclist riding behavior, and enhanced comfort levels for both motorists and bicyclists. 4 91374039 2011 08 18 Sierra Vista Final.doc August 2011 F i nal Report ÂÂ 3. Establish a program of regular sweeping of bike lanes, shared roadways, and shared-use paths The City currently has a regular maintenance program that includes street sweeping of streets and shared-use paths. It is recommended that the City include bicycle routes in a routine of regular sweeping. ÂÂ 4. Install or reconfigure video detection of bicyclists at traffic signals New or improved traffic signals should include video detection that is configured to detect bicyclists riding in the street, including in a bicycle lane or shoulder. ÂÂ 5. Install pedestrian countdown signals at traffic signals New or improved traffic signals should include pedestrian countdown signals to improve pedestrian safety when crossing streets. ÂÂ 6. Consider travel lane width reductions to accommodate bicycle lanes Many roadways in urban areas, including in Sierra Vista, were originally constructed without bicycle lanes. Busy urban arterials without bicycle lanes often act as deterrents to bicycle travel. Many city streets can be retrofitted to include bicycle lanes by narrowing the travel lanes to allow room for bicycle lanes. ÂÂ 7. Install bicycle lane striping and signing at intersections New or reconstructed intersections, with right-turn lanes, should be constructed or reconstructed to include bicycle lane treatments at the intersections, including a striped bicycle lane that creates a buffer between bicyclists and motorized vehicles and increases the visibility of bicyclists. ÂÂ 8. Install raised pedestrian refuge crossing islands at marked and unmarked cross walks on arterials and high traffic volume collectors Raised pedestrian refuge islands (crossing islands) are raised islands placed in the street at intersection or mid-block locations to separate crossing pedestrians from motor vehicles. Pedestrian refuge islands should be considered for implementation at marked crosswalks and mid-block locations on high volume roadways such as Fry Boulevard. FHWA guidance states that raised pedestrian refuge islands should be considered particularly in areas where there are mixtures of a significant number of pedestrians, high volumes of traffic (more than 12,000 ADT), and intermediate or high travel speeds. ÂÂ 9. Install bicycle route signs, bike lane signs, and shared lane markings on the City of Sierra Vista Bicycle Network The City of Sierra Vista Bicycle and Pedestrian Routes Map presents the existing bicycle and pedestrian network. Expansion and improvements to the network of bike lanes and shared roadways should include new bike lanes and the installation of bicycle route and shared roadway signs. ÂÂ 10. Routinely provide a sidewalk or pathway on BOTH sides of the street All new and reconstructed roadways should include a sidewalk or pathway on both sides of the road. From an implementation perspective, in general, sidewalks should be constructed along existing roadways when curb and gutter for drainage is installed. 5 91374039 2011 08 18 Sierra Vista Final.doc August 2011 F i nal Report ÂÂ 11. Develop and adopt a Complete Streets policy It is recommended that the City Council develop and adopt a Complete Streets policy that directs future investment in transpor-tation infrastructure to consider the needs of all users. As described by the Complete Streets Coalition: “By adopting a Complete Streets policy, communities direct their transportation planners and engineers to routinely design and operate the entire right-of-way to enable safe access for all users, regardless of age, ability, or mode of transportation. This means that every transportation project will make the street network better and safer for drivers, transit users, pedestrians, and bicyclists – making your town a better place to live.” ÂÂ 12. Recommended studies Additional studies and plans are proposed to continue to address multimodal needs and deficiencies in the City. A. Sidewalk inventory and assessment Conduct a sidewalk inventory to identify existing sidewalk gaps in the City’s pedestrian network, and to develop an implementa-tion plan to address the gaps. B. Warrant studies for mid-block pedestrian crossings Conduct a detailed analysis of pedestrian crossings on Fry Boulevard to identify pedestrian crossing improvements at signalized intersections, and to identify appropriate locations and necessary infrastructure for mid-block pedestrian crossings. C. Shared-use path / multi-use path pavement alternatives Identify and evaluate alternative, ADA compliant, all-weather surfaces for City shared-use paths. Budgetary limitations may necessitate that alternative surfaces be considered that would reduce the cost to construct and maintain City shared-use paths. D. Action Plan to achieve League of American Bicyclists, Bicycle Friendly Community (BFC) Designation and Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center, Walk Friendly Communities Designation Develop and adopt an action plan to provide strategic direction toward successful designation as a Bicycle Friendly City by the League of American Bicyclists, and as a Walk Friendly Community by the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center. E. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan It is recommended that the City develop an ADA Transition Plan to identify and address ADA deficiencies and implementation schedule. 6. RECOMMENDED PRIORITIZED PROJECTS Specific project recommendations include an expansion of the existing bicycle lanes network, new shared-use paths, and new shared roadway projects. The prioritized projects are listed in Table E-1. Project numbers correspond to those depicted in Figures E-1 and E-2. Projects were prioritized by considering how the proposed projects meet the needs of Sierra Vista residents in the areas of accessibility, safety, and connectivity, and by balancing these factors with the cost and complexity of the project. Table E-1 includes the prioritization as high, medium, or low-priority project. 6 91374039 2011 08 18 Sierra Vista Final.doc August 2011 F i n al Report Shared Roadways Shared roadways are local roadways with relatively low vehicular traffic and a speed limit of 35 miles per hour or less, making them ideally suited for bicycle travel. Shared roadways provide continuity to other bicycle facilities (shared-use paths or bike lanes), or serve as alternatives to routes with higher traffic volumes and speeds. Bicycle Lanes Bicycle lanes are proposed on arterial and collector streets with vehicular speeds of 25 miles per hour or more, and where adequate street width exists. Many City streets may require travel lane width reduction to accommodate the bicycle lanes. Shared-use Paths Shared-use paths are generally 8 to 12 feet wide, are separated from vehicular traffic, and only allow non-motorized uses. This Plan supplements and expands upon those proposed in the City of Sierra Vista General Plan. 7. FUNDING SOURCES Various funding sources are identified that are eligible to be utilized for bicycle and pedestrian improvements. These include: National Highway System (NHS)~~ Bridge Program~~ Surface Transportation Program (STP)~~ Transportation Enhancement Activity~~ Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)~~ Safe Routes to School~~ State and Community Traffic Safety Program, Section 402~~ Transportation and Community and System Preservation Pilot Program (TCSP)~~ Job Access and Reverse Commute (JARC)~~ Federal Transit Capital, Urban, Rural Funds~~ Community Development Block Grants (CDBG)~~ State Sales Tax~~ Local Transportation Assistance Fund (LTAF) (Program was suspended in 2010)~~ Development Impact Fees~~7 91374039 2011 08 18 Sierra Vista Final.doc August 2011 F i n al Report Pr oject N umber Street or L ocation From T o L ength (miles) Pr iority Signed Shared Roadways Projects Calle Portal Memorial Veteran Park (north of Fry Boulevard) Quail Run Drive 0.4 High Canyon Drive Fry Boulevard Theater Drive 0.4 High Lenzner Avenue Golf Links Busby 0.5 High Quail Run (includes parts of Calle del Norte, El Camino Real, and Calle Central) Moorman Avenue SR 92 1.2 High North Avenue James Drive Kayetan Drive 0.1 High Sycamore Drive North Avenue Norman Avenue 0.1 High Campus Drive SR 90 Bypass Colombo Avenue 0.5 High Busby Drive Buffalo Soldier Trail Carmichael Avenue 0.2 Medium El Camino Real Foothills Drive Southern terminus of El Camino Real (approx. extension of Lexington Drive) 0.2 High Kayetan Drive Buffalo Solider Trail Carmichael Avenue 0.7 High Tacoma Street/Las Brisas (includes parts of Theater Drive and 1st Street) Pfister Avenue Coronado Drive 3 Medium Tacoma Street Ball fields at Tacoma Drive / SR 90 0.8 Medium Town and Country Golf Links Avenida Cochise 0.8 Medium Busby Drive SR 92 Avenida del Sol (follows Busby Drive until it ends and picks up on Corral Road) 0.8 Medium Denman Avenue and Carmelita Drive Canyon Drive Coronado Drive 1.7 Medium Greenbrier Road Cherry Hills Drive Mission Drive 0.3 Medium Oakmont Shared-use path extending from El Camino Real to Oakmont Avenida Cochise 0.2 Medium Cardinal Drive and Martingale Road El Camino Real Golf Links Road 0.4 Medium Bicycle Lanes Projects 9 Fry Boulevard Buffalo Soldier Trail SR 90 Bypass 2.9 High 5 Charleston Road Colombo Avenue SR 90 Bypass 0.5 High 8 Foothills Drive SR 92 Snyder Boulevard 1 High 3 Avenida Del Sol / Giulio Cesare Avenue Snyder Boulevard Buena School Boulevard 2 High Table E-1 – Prioritized List of Shared Roadways, Bicycle Lanes, and Shared-Use Paths Projects8 91374039 2011 08 18 Sierra Vista Final.doc August 2011 F i n al Report Pr oject N umber Street or L ocation From T o L ength (miles) Pr iority Bicycle Lanes Projects (continued) 7 Foothills Drive El Camino Real SR 92 0.6 High 14 SR 90 Bypass Buffalo Soldier Trail SR 92 4.3 High 11 Lenzner Avenue Tacoma Street Fry Boulevard 0.6 High 15 SR 92 SR 90 Bypass City of Sierra Vista City Limits 3.9 High 2 Avenida Cochise Buffalo Soldier Trail Coronado Drive 0.7 High 4 Busby Drive Carmichael Avenue Moorman Avenue 1.5 High 6 Coronado Drive Martin Luther King Jr. Parkway Buffalo Soldier Trail 2.8 Medium 12 Oakmont Drive Avenida Cochise Greenbrier Road 0.2 Medium 13 Snyder Boulevard SR 92 Avenida Del Sol 1 Medium 10 Golf Links Road Buffalo Soldier Trail 7th Street 0.5 Medium Shared-Use Paths Projects 30 Avenida Del Sol / Giulio Cesare Avenue Snyder Boulevard Camino del Norte 0.5 High 18 Buffalo Soldier Trail SR 90 Bypass Avenida Cochise 2.5 High 23 Fry Boulevard Coronado Drive Avenida Escuela to Martin Luther King, Jr. 1.2 High 26 SR 92 Calle Mercancia City Limit 2.5 High 26 SR 92 Foothills Drive Avenida Cochise (west side) 0.9 High 17 Avenida Del Sol / Giulio Cesare Avenue SR 90 Bypass Buena School Boulevard 1 Medium 25 SR 90 Bypass 7th Street Coronado Drive 1 Medium 26 SR 92 Buffalo Soldier Trail City Limit 1.25 Medium 21 Coronado Drive SR 90 Bypass Tacoma Street 0.5 Medium 16 7th Street Wilcox Drive Golf Links Road 0.9 Medium 19 Busby Drive Carmichael Avenue Moorman Avenue 1.5 Medium 20 Undeveloped El Camino Real Oakmont Drive 0.1 Medium 26 SR 92 West side of 92, south of Fry North end of Circle K to Fry Boulevard 0.2 Medium 27 Tacoma Street End of Tacoma Street SR 90 Bypass 0.3 Medium 31 Shared-use path extending southwest of Town and Country Town and Country Buffalo Soldier Trail 0.4 Medium 24 Lenzner Avenue Fry Boulevard Golf Links Road 0.4 Low 28 Busby Drive (Extension) Eastern terminus Busby Drive Western terminus of Corral Road 0.3 Low 22 Coronado Drive Busby Drive Golf Links Road 0.5 Low Table E-1 – Prioritized List of Shared Roadways, Bicycle Lanes, and Shared-Use Paths Projects (continued)nn nn nn nn nn nn nn Civic Center Complex Veterans Memorial Park Bella Vista Park A.V.
