ap 4. Improve the health and wellbeing of all residents through strategic development of the mobility networkA) People want to get out of

their cars if safe and efficient alternatives are provided! They would prefer to bike, shuttle or walk to main destinations than drive their cars.

3. Invest in better pedestrian and bicycle pathwaysA) Create dedicated

pathways for all forms of transit: walkways for pedestrians, pathways for bikes, and dedicated lanes for cars and buses (sun runners)

Investment Strategies

1. Create a highly integrated network of diverse mobility options A) Develop a shuttle or loop

line to and from the Trolley stations and the beach

B) Create an East/West and North/South circulator to connect transit stations to beach and back

2. Focus on community-based solutions and innovations that are uniquely PBA) Implement a robotic golf

cart system from the Trolley stations to the Beach

B) Build an aerial skywalk to move people safely from I-5 to the beach3. Invest in better

pedestrian and bicycle pathwaysA) Reinforce safety by

highlighting pedestrian crossings, improve/widen sidewalks

B) Create safe routes to future Balboa Trolley Station such as a pedestrian/bike bridge over I-54. Improve the health

and wellbeing of all residents through strategic development of the mobility networkA) Reduce amount of

vehicular traffic throughout PB to tame traffic and reduce GHG’s
