City Council

F.1. DIRECTION TO PAINT BIKE LANES GREEN [J. ERICKSON, C.\nBYERS, Y. QUARKER, A. LOVANO, J. DEL TORO, J. CARTER]:\nSUBJECT: The City Council will consider establishing a policy to paint all\nClass II bike lanes in West Hollywood green and will authorize staff to\nbegin installing green bike lanes throughout the City. Painting the bike\nlanes green provides a clear delineation for drivers and cyclists and\nsupports the City’s community safety priorities.\nRECOMMENDATIONS: 1) Establish a City policy to install green-colored\npavement in the shade “Hollywood Green” (Pantone 349C) on all Class II\nbike lanes in West Hollywood; 2) Authorize staff to begin painting the\nexisting Class II bike lanes green, including the bike lanes on Santa\nMonica Boulevard from Doheny Drive to Kings Road, as well as segments\non San Vicente Boulevard and Fairfax Avenue south of Santa Monica\nBoulevard; and 3) Direct staff from the Department of Public Works to\ncoordinate with the Communications Department to include information on\nthe City’s website about the green-colored pavement for bike lanes and\nsafety benefits of this strategy.
