WHAT'S HAPPENING
This project will collect community input to inform a conceptual design for a bike park near the entrance to the Berkeley Marina. The goal is for this bike park to be a model for inclusivity, healthy activity, and fun as a part of the overall waterfront experience.
The conceptual design should serve for mountain bikers, BMX bikers, adaptive cyclists, youth, and young adults, and is envisioned to include progressive features, challenge elements, and alternate lines that encourage users to grow their skills safely.
A community process has begun in order to engage the bike community to inform a conceptual design for the project. The initial round of public outreach took place in Spring 2022. It involved a focus group, community questionnaire, and workshop, along with public comments shared via email and phone. The initial round of feedback has been synthesized and was translated into two conceptual design alternatives shared with the community on September 29, 2022. The project team received specific feedback on each concept at the workshop.
The conceptual design determined through this process can be used as a basis for future phases which include: funding, design, construction, programming, and ongoing management.
