City's D Street Traffic Calming web page.
D Street from Petaluma Boulevard to Windsor Drive (Putnam Park) is part of a critical corridor connecting East and West Petaluma, what we are calling the Park2Park Crosstown Bikeway The P2P Bikeway opens up a long string of parks, schools, and shopping to people who can't afford or choose not to drive a car.
Barrier-protected bike lanes are essential for safe travel by people of all ages and abilities. The street is wide enough to accommodate them, but it may require removal of on-street parking, narrowing of traffic lanes, and reduction of speed limits.
We support starting with a short term (e.g. 1-week) test of removable barriers in both directions, so everyone --cyclists, drivers and D Street neighbors -- can experience the comfort and quiet of traveling the "calmed" version of this beautiful stretch of road before any final commitments are made.
