    The document proposes two projects: 1) Installing two-way protected bike lanes under the Bridge Street underpass without removing vehicle lanes, with options for low or high barriers. 2) Converting one-way Lamberton Street to two-way operation by adding parking-protected bike lanes while preserving parking and vehicle lanes. Both projects aim to improve bike connectivity to downtown Trenton from surrounding areas.

    Bridge Street Underpass Concepts

    The project team is proposing a set of two-way barrier protected bike lanes under the Bridge Street underpass to make the connection
    between South Trenton and the downtown bike lane network. This configuration will not take away any vehicular lanes under the bridge, but
    will use the excess space to safely allow cyclists to get from one end to the other.

    A barrier is being proposed to keep vehicles out of the bike lane here. Which barrier type would you prefer to see here?

    Option 1: Low barrier with flex posts Option 2: Higher barrier with reflective marking

    Bridge Street Underpass Art and Lighting
    A long-term vision of the Bridge Street underpass would include adding art and colorful lighting to the underpass to make the space feel
    more inviting and safer to cross. The rendering below shows one example of the work that can be done to achieve this goal. The art used on
    the bridge abutments and bike lane barriers would be produced by local artists.

    Lamberton Street
    Two-Way Parking Protected Bike Lanes
    As an alternative to the riverfront trail, the project team is proposing a second route that utilizes the unused
    space on the one-way section of Lamberton Street between Cass Street and Riverview Park. Both sides of street
    parking and the current one-way travel lane will be preserved with this configuration. This route will make for a
    much more direct connection to downtown Trenton, and better connects the South Trenton neighborhood into
    the regional trail and city bike lane networks.
