Making the left turn onto Broderson and a few other streets and driveways along LOVR is difficult because there is no left turn lane or median - Farmers Market

Bike lanes need street sweeping; it is incredibly dangerous to ride in the lane and have to dodge debris and gravel - Farmers Market

More frequent transit service needed; perhaps a dedicated bus lane along LOVR? - Farmers Market

Traffic calming needed in this business district. Vehicles travel much too fast. Entering/leaving the roadway is treacherous with speeding traffic.

In my 7 years living in Los Osos, I have never seen the 55-->45->35 mph speed limit transition for westbound traffic enforced. This results in cars in adjacent lanes traveling at significantly different speeds, which is dangerous for vehicles but even more so for bikes and pedestrians. Why is there a speed limit change if it's not going to be enforced?

A physically separated 2-way multi-use (bike + pedestrian) path absolutely is feasible! Look how much right-of-way is available! Look around the state and country at places where these have been built -- they become main attractions. Don't settle for a rumble strip, all that does is give a cyclist a 0.1 second warning before being crushed.

Cyclists and pedestrians deserve a dedicated two-way multi-use path that is physically separated from LOVR by a concrete barrier. LOVR already sees substantial bike traffic every day and these people are taking great personal risk. A safer option would increase usage and promote alternative forms of transportation.

Illegal left turns by westbound traffic to access seasonal events at this location (pumpkin patch, Christmas trees, etc.) are a major safety hazard. I have witnessed multiple close-call accidents and delays as a result, and there seems to be no enforcement against the illegal turns. There should be a continuous 4-lane divided highway from Los Osos to SLO with dedicated exits and turn pockets for access to points in between.

My understanding is it is illegal for other modes to traverse in Class II bike lanes?.only incidental crossing the lane.
There are numerous locations along LOVR (and other streets within Los Osos?Pine Street as an example. How can these be implemented as such where there are no provisions for pedestrians along the route in an ?Urban? county designated area?Liked 0 times -
Sidewalk needed between Grocery Outlet and Celia?s Cafe.

There?s needs to be concrete barricades along this entire strip for bicyclists and runners. Distracted drivers veer into bike lanes all the time. I?ve personally been missed multiple times by drivers going 65+ mph.

This is where the unchecked speeding begins on LOVR and no amount of attempted mitigation will replace an increased police presence to start seriously writing tickets to speeding offenders.

You need a separated bike path from SLO to Spooner's Cove. There are WAY TOO MANY choke points where riding bikes is very dangerous. Even on LOVR where there is a wide lane, a friend was hit and lost his leg in the not too distant past. If we really want people on bikes, we need to make it safe and thus enjoyable.

a proper bike lane/path should be included in the new plan. Either a barricade between cyclists autos or at the very least, a wider bike lane. This should be from MDO statepark all the way to SLO. this would be good for people to cycle commute into and from SLL and also up into the MDO park safely. thank you

This is a really dangerous intersection for pedestrians. Cars speed through this area and have run red lights while students are entering the crosswalk. The crossing guards have nearly been hit by cars here.

Separate bike lane needed all along LOVR. This is the approximate location of the 10/6/23 accident where a dui driver hit me on my bike, causing a 6 week hospitalization and the amputation of my left leg. The driver is now serving a one year jail sentence, and I am a bicyclist with a prosthetic leg.

Pecho Road to MDO DESPARATELY needs AT LEAST a bike lane; there is no shoulder. A separate bike lane would be better!

This segment between South Bay and 9th is a perfect candidate for complete street & safety improvements. Please consider:
- Road diet (5 to 3 lanes) between Oceanview and 9th
- Landscaped median w/ ped refuges at x-ings
- Wider sidewalks w/ street trees and bulbouts at ped crossings
- Increased separation/protection for bike lanes
- Enhance unsignalized ped x-ings (RRFBs, PHBs, Raised Speed Tables)Liked 0 times -
Corridor-wide comment: In absence of crash data, here are corridor-wide safety recommendations:
- Provide center turn lanes at all intersections and driveways with moderate traffic level
- Provide raised medians along mid-block segments or striped medians w/ rumble strips
- Rumble strips along shoulders/bike lanes
- Add separated ped/bike facilities
- Roundabout at LOVR/Foothill
- Road diet on between Oceanview and 9th.Liked 0 times
