Come help our neighbor to the North, El Cerrito, shape its bicycle and pedestrian future!
The Open House for El Cerrito’s Active Transportation Plan will begin with a short presentation about the planning process and proposed bicycle and pedestrian networks. Focus area project posters will be available for review and comment throughout the workshop.
The City released the draft Plan for public comment on Sunday, June 14th. The Plan, which is an update to the 2007 Circulation Plan for Bicyclists and Pedestrians, evaluated the existing bicycle and pedestrian networks and identified new focus projects and programs to close gaps in these networks and provide amenities to make it easier to bike and walk in El Cerrito.
The draft Plan proposes nine focus area projects, revised bicycle and pedestrian networks, a policy toolkit and program framework to making walking and biking easier in El Cerrito. The nine focus area projects are:

• BART to Bay Trail Access Improvements at Central Avenue, Carlson Boulevard, and Cerrito Creek Connections between Plaza BART and the Bay Trail
• Ohlone Greenway Crossing Improvements – Citywide
• Citywide Wayfinding at Key Walking and Biking Routes
• Arlington Boulevard Pedestrian Improvements
• East Side Bicycle Boulevard – Blake Street, Norvell Street, Schmidt Lane, Richmond Street,
• Moeser Lane, Norvell Street, Lincoln Avenue, Albemarle Street, Behrens Street
• Wayfinding associated with East Side Bicycle Boulevard
• Key Boulevard Improvements – between Humboldt Street and Hill Street
• Fairmount Avenue Improvements – between Carlson Boulevard and Colusa Avenue
• Potrero Avenue Improvements – between western City Limit and Ohlone Greenway

The draft Plan is available for review via the project website, www.el-cerrito.org/ATP. Public comments will be accepted from Sunday, June 14th until Friday, July 17th and may be submitted via email to the Public Works Department at streets@ci.el-cerrito.ca.us, via mail to City of El Cerrito, 10890 San Pablo Avenue, El Cerrito, CA 94530 or dropped off at the El Cerrito City Hall Front Counter, Attn: Public Works.
