New streets will integrate bicycle and vehicular traffic <br />in shared, clearly marked lanes while also providing on- street <br />parallel parking to buffer pedestrians and serve businesses. Clear <br />connections will be made to existing designated bike routes. <br />A network of sidewalks and paths will accompany the new street <br />system on the riverfront site. Pedestrian paths will occur on both <br />sides of all streets and connect with the enhanced configuration <br />of the existing riverfront path and bicycle route system. A <br />boardwalk along Restaurant Row will provide opportunities for <br />outdoor dining and activities overlooking the river and public <br />open space. This boardwalk will be grade- separated from the <br />continuous Riverbank Trail to facilitate safe, concurrent use by <br />multiple modes. <br />— — w Eicycle Routes <br />Pedestrian Routes and Areas <br />FIGURE 4 -9: <br />PEDESTRIAN + BICYCLE <br />CONNECTIONS <br />Rowell Brokaw Architects to 29 <br />
