Access and Circulation by Travel Mode <br />This section describes access and circulation by travel mode at the Dublin/Pleasanton BART <br />Station, with the focus on the Pleasanton side of the station. <br />Walking and Pedestrian Environment <br />According to the 2015 station access mode share data, walking is the second most common <br />mode of access to the station for home-based trips and the most common mode of access for <br />non-home-based trips. Both the Dublin and Pleasanton sides of the station provide pedestrian <br />access to the station entrance via the Iron Horse Trail. Figure 5 shows the major pedestrian <br />paths on the Pleasanton side of the station. <br />Sidewalks with minimum 8 feet width are present, and in several locations these walkways overlap <br />with the Iron Horse Trail, increasing the potential for conflicts between pedestrians and cyclists. <br />For example, signage south of the station advises cyclists to dismount and walk their bikes until <br />reaching Owens Drive. <br />Another challenge for pedestrians is the eastern crosswalk at the Owens Drive/Willow Road <br />intersection, which does not provide a direct pedestrian path into the station. Pedestrians must <br />either walk through the surface parking lot, or take longer, indirect routes either along Owens <br />Drive and use the Iron Horse Trail or walk along the west and north sides of the station adjacent <br />to the Hewlett Canal to reach the station entrance. <br />DRA <br />F <br />T <br />Page 294 of 399
