Eugene Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan Policy 3.1 is to ensure high quality , flexible and secure bicycle parking at all destinations , and ensure that bicycle parking is considered when parks , schools , and ot her public facilities are planned. The parking system has converted on-street parking spaces to pedestrian and bicycle facilities , such as bike lanes on 13 th Avenue. Plans over the next few years will convert additional parking spaces to bicycle lanes on Lincoln , 13th Avenue , and High Street. The conversion of parking spaces reduces the supply of parking and increases vehicle parking demand , while also providing more connected bicycle ways . The Parking Enterprise Fund also pays for the installation of on-street bike corrals and bicycle parking on sidewalks.
