The vacant land on west side of the 600 block has huge eucalyptus trees. Every windy storm, I fear for the trees coming down on my house. Besides damage and possible injury, the power lines would disconnect. And LOVR would be blocked across the whole road. These trees need to be removed.

I live in the 600 block of LOVR. The traffic speeds on this road constantly and there is no enforcement of the speed limits. Need speed bumps like on Pine to slow traffic going into town.

Add a dedicated bike path with barrier, especially from South Bay Blvd to Montana de Oro. Safe, accessible and scenic for cyclists.
Additionally, a dedicated bike path with barrier will improve the safety for vehicles.

Although the speed limit decreases as you drive west, folks don't tend to slow down as they enter town. The reverse is true from the other direction where people drive quickly as they drive east from South Bay. Adding traffic circles at the intersections and removing the turn lane might be effective traffic calming measures.

I commented earlier about putting a roundabout here. I just got back from a trip where roundabouts are common and learned a little. First, they don?t work well with high traffic volume. Cars line up waiting for the chance to merge into the traffic going through the roundabout. Also, if one is used it must be large enough to handle the traffic. See the note from a few days ago.

All of your models and plans are missing the NEW roundabout that is built connecting Wisteria Lane to the New Airport Road! You show your planned roundabout which will be built adjacent to the NEW one just completed. Cars will leave one roundabout and pull into the next one? This should be considered in your traffic flow as large freight truck & trailers could backlog traffic with back to back roundabouts. The photo does not show the fully built roundabout.

The Pier Ave corridor development is too limited by commercial airport densities allowed by the Oceano Airport Land Use Plan

I am against protected bike lanes in this area. They are dangerous for vehicles with the barriers usually constructed for these lanes. There have been accidents in the City of SLO where vehicles have hit the barriers and overturned. Safe bike lanes can be constructed without using concrete barriers.

Public transportation between Los Osos and San Luis Obispo along Los Osos Valley Road would benefit many people in the community.

Safe space for cyclist and pedestrians would be a great benefit to the community.

Instead of multiple ATV companies using space along Pier to advertise and store their vehicles, how about having one storefront with space for all companies (like rental cars at a small airport terminal) to arrange for rentals. Rental equipment can be stored off of Pier (in warehouse along railway) and open up space along Pier for dining, shopping, lodging, and other entertainment - and perhaps more parking. On busy summer days, the beach is being used as a parking lot out of necessity.

Pedestrian concern on the dunes, folks who park in the parking lot and walk over to the water have cars constantly going around them, difficult to enjoy the beach when there are cars racing around your children trying to enjoy the beach. Close of Pier to cars entering the beach to allow pedestrians to enjoy the beach.

Major pedestrian concern for families crossing from one side of Pier to the other on the sand, cars do not stop for people, they go around them and it is very dangerous.

This entire area needs to be more biker and pedestrian (especially families) friendly. Now it seems to only cater to the off-road/truck/RV crowd and the lack of sidewalks and connected trails do not encourage safe walking and biking. Also NO OVERNIGHT PARKING/CAMPING on any street!

There should be a crosswalk here across LOVR for the trailhead (Midtown Restoration). Having to dodge traffic to it.

If you have a dedicated bike lane it will be necessary to have 4 lanes for cars and farm equipment so there will be a lane for passing the slow moving farm equipment because they partially use the current bike lane which rarely gets swept of the mud clods the farm equipment and trucks deposit.

I have concerns that any county road project along Pecho within MdO state park boundaries that involves a transfer of land from parks to the county for road widening may trigger a renewed effort by State Parks to put up an entrance kiosk. Please design improvements to keep access to MdO free!

Roundabouts work, but they need to be scaled appropriately to work. For instance the heavy commuter traffic on LOVR would require at minimum a two-lane roundabout with turnout lanes, so basically a three-lane roundabout. Research the roundabout at Hwys 154 & 246 in the Santa Ynez valley

A separated bike path would be an incredible amenity. Look at how popular the Bob Jones Bike Trail is.
Vehicle speeds are high on LOVR and drivers drift into the bike lane all the time when messing with their phone or stereo. Cyclists need a safe separated lane.Liked 0 times -
While four full lanes the length of LOVR would certainly be ideal for moving commuter traffic, it could create real problems for those living along the route. If four lanes were being considered, a fifth center turn lane would be a necessary addition for safe access in and out of the rural parcels

please add a protected bike lane from the SLO city limit to Foothill with a dedicated crossing at the Foothill light to continue westbound

LOVR needs to be widened to two lanes westbound from Diablo Dr. to Foothill. Likely also for eastbound. I don't know why this section is not included in the proposed scope of work. It is the most grossly congested portion of LOVR outside of the 101-to-Madonna Rd. portion during rush hour

Passing lanes work best when they are on the uphill side of the road: re-stripe for 2 lanes westbound from Foothill all the way to the crest of LOVR, then down to one lane westbound on the downhill side. Going eastbound, extend the passing lane from Turri Rd. all the way to the crest of LOVR, it is too short to enable safe passing.

A traffic circle here will allow high traffic to smoothly and safely navigate this intersection, while automatically decreasing the speed vehicles move through the intersection when there is little or no traffic. And of course there are no lights that need to be maintained.
