I ....i From: Everett Buntsma Director, Operations & Emergency Services Subject: Regional Cycling Plan File: A-1440 Recommendation: 1. That Report OES-07-08 regarding the Regional Cycling Plan be received; and 2. That Council endorse staff comments as provided with the report and that Report OES-07-08 be forwarded to the Regional Municipality of Durham. Executive Summary: In 2005, the Region of Durham (via Report No. 2005-J-23) proposed the establishment ot policies and strategies to build and promote a regional network of on and off road cycling routes and facilities. The Region retained Marshall Macklin Monaghan as their consultant to undertake the Regional Cycling Plan Study with an objective to develop a 'Cycling Plan' across the Region integrated with local municipalities. In the fall of 2007 the Region of Durham published the Durham Cycling Plan Study prepared by their consultants and requested area municipalities to provide comments and recommendations by March 15, 2008. As illustrated in Region of Durham's Report No. 2007-J-23 dated: June 12, 2007, the cycling plan (via short and long term strategies) identifies financial and administrative responsibilities for the creation of routes, both currently existing and future proposed which link local municipal systems, transit routes and pedestrian corridors within public lands and right-ot-ways to promote alternative modes of transportation. As the Regional Cycling Plan Study initiative is nearing completion, the Region has requested municipal comments. Having reviewed the document, staff noted that the proposed cycling plan promotes corporate sustainability objectives and works towards the creation of an efficient, affordable and accessible transportation environment. In support of the Regional Cycling Plan, staff hereby presents an update on the study and comments for information and endorsement prior to issuance to the Regional Municipality of Durham-Works Department. Report OES- 07-08 May 12, 2008 Subject: Regional Cycling Plan Page 2 ;-- /, '') il Financial Implications: The Regional Cycling Plan Study recommends that: . the Region should fund the entire cost of all on-road cycling network segments on Regional Roads . the Region should contribute fifty percent of the cost for new or adjusted pavement markings and cycling network signing for on-road routes falling under the jurisdiction of local municipalities, and . the Region should consider cost sharing off-road network segments on a project- by-project basis, with other groups, such as local municipalities etc. when funding is available . Table 7-2 of the Regional Cycling Plan Study shows the proposed cost associated to the City of Pickering as per Regional Cycling Plan:- TOTAL COST $ 3,432,410 ADJUSTED COST TOTAL' $ 3,378,205 *adjusted total cost table assumes Regional cost sharing formula as in Appendix B of the Cycling Plan Report (Attachment #2 of this report). The total adjusted cost' for the City of Pickering (as proposed in the consultant's report) is $3,378,205 for the period of 2008 to 2032 based on the following unit prices: FACILITY TYPE Multi-use Trail Bike Lane Road Widenin Bike Lane Road Widenin Paved Shoulder Bikewa Si ned ani Route COST/Km $ 150,000 $ 10,000 $ 425,000 $ 55,000 $ 1,650 1Cost for facility in both directions * Total Adjusted Cost = assumes Regional Cost Sharing Formula) However, this cost does not include property acquisition and nor does it contain structural improvement, utility relocations and/or environmental assessments (if needed). The cost of all of these works could be significant depending on the facility type. Although the plan includes a cost sharing strategy to encourage the implementation of proposed regional network segments on lands not owned by the Region, the cost sharing measures for off-road network segments on a project-by- project basis, with other groups and local municipalities needs to be strengthened more in detail. While it is understood that there is a significant cost associated with the plan, the City of Pickering will be reviewing proposed cycling plans recommended by Region and will continue to work towards it as well as investigate alternative funding sources to assist in financing the proposed Regional Cycling Plan. CORP0227-07/01 revised Report OES- 07-08 May 12, 2008 Subject: Regional Cycling Plan Page 3 ) Based on the above, it is evident that further investigation is necessary in order to look at additional funding sources. Sustainability Implications: The "Regional Cycling Plan Study" is planned to shape an opportunity for future sustainable planning in Region of Durham. The goals of the study promote energy efficient and environmentally conscious alternative modes of transportation which mirror economic, environmental and social corporate sustainability objectives. The study also recommends that Region of Durham should enhance its commitment to bicycle safety programs. A more comprehensive effort by the Region will be required to influence the public that cycling is not only a feasible mode of transportation but a safe and more sustainable alternative to the automobile for short distance trips. Background: The Region of Durham through its various strategies desires to establish a region-wide network of on and off-road cycling routes and facilities for everyday transportation and enjoyment purposes. The need and justification of the Regional Cycling Plan is also highlighted in Section 3.2.3 of the Region's Transportation Master Plan (RTMP) recognizing that cycling and walking are sustainable and environmentally friendly modes of transportation concentrating actively on the local municipal road and path systems. The Region retained Marshall Macklin Monaghan as their consultant to undertake the Regional Cycling Plan Study with an objective to develop a 'Cycling Plan' across the Region integrated with local municipalities. Regional Council on June 20, 2007 (via Report No. 2007-J-23) passed the Joint Commissioner's Report on the Status of the Regional Cycling Plan Study which outlines that cycling is the most energy efficient mode of transportation and is not only a popular recreational activity but also an efficient, affordable and accessible mode of transportation in today's world. On September 26, 2007 City received a copy of the Regional Cycling Plan Study report and appendices prepared by Marshall Macklin Monaghan for review and comments. The Region further requested municipal comments and recommendations on the plan and plan implementation including priorities and financing options by October 15, 2007. In response to Municipalities request to extend the comments submission deadline, the regional staff further requested area municipalities to provide comments and recommendations by March 15, 2008. Attachment #1 to this report provides a summary of the recommended routes in the City of Pickering. Attachment #3 is a map of the proposed Regional Cycling Plan. The City Staff had a comprehensive review and analyzed that a more comprehensive effort by the Region will be required to influence the public that cycling is not only a feasible mode of transportation but a safe and desirable alternative to the automobile for short distance trips. Motorists and cyclists need to be better educated about how to coexists on a shared facility which includes educating cyclists about proper use of the bike lanes and to obey all traffic rules and regulations. The motorists in turn, should be trained or educated not to pull into or park on the designated bike lanes and to be more CORP0227-07/01 revised Report OES- 07-08 May 12, 2008 Subject: Regional Cycling Plan Page 4 :) c~ cautious and courteous around cyclists. The proposed plan which is recommended to be implemented in two phases; short term (2008-2012) and long term (2013 - 2032) is further categorized into the following three categories:- Class 1 - Multi-Use Trails The Region of Durham is planning to build 306 kilometers of multiuse trails within the entire region in a span of twenty five years. As pointed out in the Region's Study, Multi use trails will be facilities which are entirely separate from the traveled portion of a roadway. They may be in the form of a boulevard trail in a public road right-of-way or greenway/abandoned rail corridor. Class 2 - Bike lanes and Paved Shoulder Bikeways The Region is planning to build 122 kilometers of bike lanes and 341.70 kilometers of paved shoulder bikeways within the entire region in a span of twenty five years. As pointed out in the Region's Study, bike lanes and paved shoulder bikeways are located in the traveled portion of the roadway and designed for one-way cyclist traffic. Bike lanes are typically located on urban streets with curbs, and paved shoulders are typically used to accommodate cyclists on rural cycling routes where no curbs exist. Class 3 - Signed Only Routes The Region is planning to build 538 kilometers of Signed Only Routes within the entire region in a span of twenty five years. On-Road bicycle routes denoted strictly with bicycle route signs and with no other physical changes to the roadway geometry as pointed out in the cycling study of Durham. The users are to share the pavement with motor vehicles and there are no special lane designations. The proposed routes in the Regional Cycling Plan Study address the integration of transportation network satisfactorily. More detail is required on how the proposed trails and/or cycling routes are adjusted in location to integrate with desirable access points within the existing and proposed neighbourhoods of the City within the cross regional connectivity. The Cycling network should be integrated with other modes of transportation particularly public transit which will help people to travel easily within and between urban centers throughout the Region as well as access other parts of GTA, and the report should strengthen a multi nodal system of interconnected trails which could facilitate permeability among and thorough neighbourhoods. The study proposes a lane space for bicyclists on the major street network where feasible but does not highlight how a pedestrian from the bicycle networks will be integrated into the future transportation planning. Such conflicts on trails can be a serious and a challenging issue at the same time. The City of Pickering is of opinion that the Region should develop some concrete strategies for the safety concerns and the pedestrians should be considered as a part of every roadway environment. Attention must be paid to their presence in rural as well as urban areas. Strategies should pertain to but not limited to:- . Street surroundings that are perceived as unsafe to pedestrian due to crash risk of bicycling, in other words bicycle and pedestrian collisions. CORP0227 -07 /01 revised Report OES- 07-08 May 12, 2008 Subject: Regional Cycling Plan Page 5 " " . Wide roads which are not easy for pedestrians to cross . Insufficient lane space for bikes, etc. City Staff recognizes multi use trails as an important tool in contributing non motorized transport but would like to see more details on the multi usage trails design which is built and maintained to minimize the conflicts between users. The study should also indicate the maximum length of linkages between neighbourhoods and what will be the measures adopted by the Region to avoid areas of high constraints while planning these multi usage trails. The proposed Cycling Plan is recommending that the City and Region should consider purchasing a 10m swath of land adjacent to the south side of Highway 407 right-of-way to ensure east-west connectivity for non-motorized travel. At this point of time the captioned segment is being examined by the Province under Seaton's Natural Heritage System (Master Trails Plan). Similarly, the plan also recommends that the Region works closely with its respective local municipalities to develop a strategic plan in creating Bicycle User Groups providing advice and assistance to workplaces for developing a plan for provision of cycling trip end facilities. However it does not clearly indicate what the Region's Policy will be on end trip facilities or what strategy will be processed along with its financial implications. The City of Pickering considers the Regional Cycling Plan as a sustainable strategy of the Region of Durham and is willing to work with the Regional staff to shape it in a true form of reality. However staff suggests that it needs further concentration on program development and operations funding to ensure its successful implementation. It is recommended that the Region should arrive with a broad and comprehensive transportation plan focusing all the major concerns fully addressed and completely integrated in local planning, design, and construction of the proposed cycling plan. Moreover issues like reduced traffic congestion, road and parking facility savings, reduced air and noise pollution, more efficient land use and last but not the least financial savings be addressed in more detail. The implementation strategy for the Proposed Cycling Plan identifies the phasing but does not actually talk about priorities. This consideration must be emphasized. The gaps should be identified in the local network followed by its remedial measures. City Staff also proposes that the Region should certainly focus on psychosocial effects on their proposed plan since certain patterns of transportation have a lot of effect on human behavior including risk taking, aggressive behavior, etc. CORP0227-07/01 revised Report OES- 07-08 May 12, 2008 Subject: Regional Cycling Plan Page 6 ~~') ;-~, , ' The City Staff would like to carry out a detailed assessment of the proposed plan associated to the financial implication. Also it is expected that a formal implementation strategy needs to be developed by the Region of Durham identifying the cost of the proposed network along with its priorities (short and long term) and an opportunity be given to review the same.
