•  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.

We respectfully acknowledge that we reside on the unceded ancestral lands of the Southern Pomo and Coast Miwok peoples.
