                                                   Adeline Street contains many of South Berkeley’s most popular
                                                   destinations. However, Adeline’s positive characteristics are easy
                                                   to lose sight of due to the street’s 180-foot-wide sea of concrete
                                                   and asphalt, with torrents of cars speeding by. Our goal is to re-
                                                   design Adeline so that it is easier to visit and more inviting to stay
                                                   on. Instead of an auto-dominated pseudo-freeway, we envision
                                                   Adeline as a balanced, multimodal link in the transportation net-

                                                   Goal 1: Enhance corridor connectivity for all users

                                                         Improve pedestrian and bicycle network continuity and infrastructure


                                                         Improve movement though and across the corridor


                                                         Facilitate intermodal connections that will enhance access to the corridor’s destinations

Old Road, New Directions: A Plan for Adeline

  • 1.
    CP 218 TransportationPlanning Studio UC Berkeley • Spring 2010 Introduction Adeline Street contains many of South Berkeley’s most popular destinations. However, Adeline’s positive characteristics are easy to lose sight of due to the street’s 180-foot-wide sea of concrete and asphalt, with torrents of cars speeding by. Our goal is to re- design Adeline so that it is easier to visit and more inviting to stay on. Instead of an auto-dominated pseudo-freeway, we envision Adeline as a balanced, multimodal link in the transportation net- work and a safe, attractive district for residents and visitors.
