Another reason for a dedicated bike long is because at certain times of the year cars are driving directly into the setting (and perhaps rising) sun, limiting driver visibility with glare and/or driver's having to make efforts not to look into the sun. It presents a recipe for a tragedy.

I have been riding LOVR and Highway 1 to and from Los Osos for 30 years. I am happy with the width of the ?bike lanes? and feel relatively safe riding in part of the road that have long sight lines. I ride with a very bright blinking tail light and, on my recumbent trike, a colorful flag as well. I would love to see round a bouts at Foothill and Southbay, however I dislike the method of diverting bikes into a separate bike lane. Cyclists should ?take the lane? instead as I do in Morro Bay.

As the community plan and ITP continue to move forward and we (hopefully) see continued development, additional consideration should be put into addressing the road capacity. A second lane would be more beneficial for the work force than a bike lane serving a single digit average of riders a day. This is a prime example of the failures of the State to reasonably implement VMT / SB 743. County of Marin has several tangible examples of these failures that ultimately affect the workforce commute.

Encourage a community area including making it easier to have retail and restaurant ideas. Incentives for developers and businesses to come here but not create a tourist trap. Keep the low key feel but revitalize. The area is a treasure for all of the county

Don?t all the big trailers go park on the roads. They take up 3 parking spaces. Recommend to improve parking areas for pedestrians. Consider parking in close areas and more trails to beach - perhaps airport area or downtown with walkways. This creates more interest in all of Oceano and opens connections. It?s for the community too!

Connect and add trails to beaches, downtown and even Grover. Make more recreation and biking options and pathways.

Add a welcome art or archway here or at intersection to pier and US1.

Add a center divider wall to eliminate crossover head on collision dmager

LOVR has too many head-on collisions. Lower speed limit would help reduce severity of the accidents, but the only real solution is a center divider to keep drivers from veering into oncoming traffic.

Treat this whole stretch like it's in town. Sidewalks, bike path, slower speed limit. Posted 35 MPH is too fast, and no fun to walk beside.

Re 25 MPH speed limit, The 35 MPH sign by the Post Office is badly placed - drivers see it from the Chase Bank 1 block west and say, Oh, 35 is fine HERE. The big wide turn lane is not friendly for pedestrians, and looks as if wide open for snow plowing! I feel compelled to drive between errands because parking on the east side and crossing to the businesses opposite (or vice versa) is no fun. 25 MPH plus narrower street, real turn lanes, would respect the whole business district.

This big dip in LOVR is fairly dense with houses, churches, farm stands and a working farm; it should be 45 not 55 MPH, starting east of the dip.

In general, it seems like Los Osos already has too many traffic lights. This light at Palisades is the worst (as a previous commenter pointed out, cars coming on Palisades immediately trigger the light, even if they are making a right turn), and I believe it is not necessary. I'm no traffic engineer, only a driver of 40 years, but I could see this light easily being replaced with stop signs on Palisades. Save the electricity and 86 this light.

How about a sidewalk on Doris? Lot's of children use Doris going to and coming from school.

I live near Mill and Toro and it's scary. In the last month , while walking my pups , I've had 2 close calls. People going too fast and not paying attention. Also at least 2 or 3 horns blast and I just wait for the crash - it will come. Not able

Very dangerous intersection. See and hear near misses everyday with cars and pedestrians, need traffic calming like a roundabout or stopsigns in all directions. Cars on Mill drive too fast and cause safety concerns for vehicles and pedestrians.

This is an extremely dangerous intersection with numerous near misses every day. Just saw a head on collision there today. There should be a roundabout here.

The new bike line modification makes it nearly impossible to see oncoming traffic when pulling out of 550 Higuera St. I've seen collisions and near collisions because the visibility is so bad. This particular day I saw a bad accident in this area.

Add pedestrian sidewalks where they are not currently available.

More pedestrian and wider walkways

This crosswalk needs to be improved. Potentially like the newer ones with red lights that are on Foothill Blvd. as you head West on Foothill towards LOVR. Drivers often do not stop for pedestrians at this intersection because it is just a flashing yellow and not a forced stop.

A wide, safe and protected bike/pedestrian path is needed (the style where the lane is protected and cars park between traffic and the bike/pedestrian path). Ideally it would be the stretch of LOVR from Foothill to Montana de Oro, but initially from Lariat to Pecho would be great.

Too decrease speeding from South Bay to Foothill another stop light long this stretch maybe at Turri or Clark Valley maybe.

Along this stretch a center divider with 2 lanes in each direction would be ideal. There have been too many accidents on this road.

In order to reduce the speed of cars in this section of Los Osos Valley Road from South Bay BLVD to Eto Lane, the road needs a planted median with formal pedestrian crossings and hard turning lanes.
The open view across all (4) lanes of traffic causes drivers to think they should travel faster than they should. Similar to the Ralphs area, or Laguna Lake district in SLO, a planted median would automatically decrease traffic by reducing the "openness" of the road.
