Transportation Action Plan as a final document that provides an implementation

Recommendation of the
Transportation Advisory Commission:
On September 22, 2022, the Transportation
Advisory Commission (TAC) recommended that the City Council approve the Final
Draft
Pasadena Pedestrian
Transportation Action Plan
(PTAP). The TAC also provided input focused on the PTAP becoming an Action Plan
that would concentrate on specific corridors. Subsequently,
this item was recommended for approval by the City
Council through Municipal
Services Committee (MSC).
Recommendation of the
Municipal Services Committee:
Department of Transportation (DOT) staff presented the PTAP to MSC as an
informational only item on October 25, 2022. Committee members expressed
concerns on
the prioritization of the ten
corridors, including, comments and questions on streets omitted from the
prioritization list such as Orange Grove Boulevard, East Washington Boulevard,
Allen Avenue, and California Boulevard. The
Committee also requested staff
to consider integrating the City’s Pedestrian Plan with the Bicycle
Transportation Action Plan. Responses regarding the prioritization process and
considerations for one integrated plan are included
in this report.
The Final Draft PTAP was
unanimously recommended for approval by MSC to the City Council on February 13,
2024. As part of the recommendation, committee members added one corridor to the
high priority corridor list and
expanded the limits of two
corridors on the high priority corridor list, to address concerns on corridors
that experience a high number of pedestrian collisions. The action included the
addition of California Boulevard from Fair Oaks
Avenue to Lake Avenue, and the
extension of Lake Avenue to Arden Road and the extension of Washington Boulevard
to Sierra Bonita Avenue on the high priority corridor list.
