PROPOSED PEDESTRIAN NETWORK <br />The pedestrian network includes facilities such as sidewalks, curb <br />ramps, trails, and greenways to facilitate pedestrian movements <br />through the City of San Marcos. <br />Greenways are travel ways for pedestrians and cyclists that serve as <br />major transportation connections throughout the City. <br />PROPOSED SIDEWALK PLAN <br />A safe and connected pedestrian network promotes healthier <br />communities and an enhanced quality of life. Sidewalks are essential <br />to creating a well-connected pedestrian network that encourages <br />more walking as a means for shorter trips. The City of San Marcos is <br />dedicated to completing and maintaining a connected system of <br />sidewalks that are safe and accessible to everyone. <br />A Sidewalk Master Plan should be developed to identify gaps in the <br />network, and prioritize construction of new sidewalks and repairs. <br />A Sidewalk Master Plan will identify areas of high pedestrian activity <br />and identify existing safety/connectivity issues to prioritize City <br />funding. A Sidewalk Master Plan is a critical document supporting <br />the City's ADA Transition Plan. <br />OBJECTIVE <br />- <br />
