Project Descriptions
Story (3rd to King)
The Story-Keyes Bikeway project adds separated bikeways, protected intersections, transit boarding islands, and other improvements for bicyclists, pedestrians, and transit riders. The project hopes to increase safety and comfort for active transportation users on a high-speed, high-volume, and auto-oriented corridor. The project unlocks biking, walking, and bus trips to multiple parks, trails, and shopping centers for more travelers in this lower-income, pollution-burdened, and culturally diverse community. Additionally, Story Road is one of seventeen Vision Zero Priority Corridors; six pedestrians and four bicyclists have been killed or severely injured from 2016 to 2020.
Julian (Stockton to Almaden)
The Julian Street Bikeway Project closes a critical gap between discontinuous segments of the City's Guadalupe River Trail. It also replaces the crumbling roadway underneath Caltrain tracks and on the bridge that crosses the Guadalupe River. The project completes an important bicycling commute corridor through the heart of San José, connecting to transit, jobs, housing, and commercial areas and providing a safer and more comfortable alternative to nearby east-west corridors.
2nd and 3rd Street Couplet Conversion (San Carlos to Reed)
The 2nd and 3rd Street Couplet Conversion Project provides Dutch-style raised cycle tracks on parallel north/south corridors that connect Downton San Jose to the Martha Gardens neighborhood and bridges the barrier of the I-280 freeway. Additionally, over 2,000 new housing units and 1 million square feet of office space are approved or under review by the City within one block of the project, highlighting the need to provide space-efficient, sustainable mobility options along both corridors. The project will convert both streets from one-way to two-way, an improvement sought by the community for more than ten years.
The project will increase bike and pedestrian access to many vital destinations, including SJSU, Norte Dame High School, MACLA (Movimiento de Arte y Cultura Latino Americana), SOFA Arts District, and the San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles.
