Complete Streets
I had been following the development of a Complete Streets policy for Omaha (completestreetsomaha.org), but haven't heard anything about the policy or implementation in some time and was wondering if anyone had updates. I remember a few community events regarding N 30th st and S 24th st where opening up our streets for multiple transportation uses was discussed and discussion of a road diet for S 13th st. I also specifically remember community led discussion about Center street between 42nd and Hanscom park being developed with more pedestrian friendly uses.
Does anyone know if there have been any results from these meetings or if any changes are planned? Or of any other locations in Omaha where the complete streets policy is being implemented?
I would love to have a way to follow development of bike lanes, road diets, and complete streets in Omaha but don't know where to look!

Re: Complete Streets
Did anyone attend the meeting about the S 13th street project? Curious to hear what was discussed
Also if there has been any recent news about the ideas to reduce the lanes on Center from 42nd to Hanscom park

Re: Complete Streets
I went to the first meeting, but didn't make the most recent one. Mostly they said they really want to make some safety changes to slow traffic down, but they also want to be respectful to the long time light industry and auto business owners on the corridor.
I think most of the notable changes will be 13th in the core with a separated bike lane and making that bridge just south of the Old Market a lot more attractive. Further south is mostly street landscaping and fixing the sidewalks.

Re: Complete Streets
Whether one-way or two-way are more pedestrian friendly is debatable, you get less turning in one-way but much higher average speeds which are very deadly for pedestrians.
Also two-way streets encourage commercial activity which makes an area more desirable for pedestrians.

Re: Complete Streets
Here's an update on the implementation of Omaha's Complete Streets plan for Crown Point Avenue between 72nd and Blair High Road. It will consist of a two lane road diet, use of roundabouts instead of traffic lights and 10 wide multi use trail on both sides. Public response was fairly negative on the road diet, but the road is reportedly overbuilt for current traffic.

Re: Complete Streets
Sounds like most of the traffic it was built for in the 70s has moved to another arterial so they were never considering keeping 4 lanes. Glad to see them add the trail, I guess the alternative would be to return the right of way to the adjacent properties?
Re: Complete Streets
I like the trail idea. Much better than painting a bicycle on the road and calling it a bike lane. Thought I have to admit I can’t remember places where they have actually removed lanes from the road.ita wrote: ↑Mon Aug 26, 2019 9:19 am Here's an update on the implementation of Omaha's Complete Streets plan for Crown Point Avenue between 72nd and Blair High Road.

The firm I work for was part of a team that submitted an SOQ for the upcoming Omaha Bike Master Plan. I thought our team was composed of an all star list of local and national firms who do good and implementable work, but we did not get selected. So, we’ll see how that goes…

This is going to look at and prioritize one way to two way street conversions, road diets, lane width reductions, and other improvements to configuration and landscaping in the urban core. It's a good first step, but should have been done years ago.

This study will look at possible multimodal improvements to this stretch for very car centric road.

'We're about 20 years behind': Improving bike and pedestrian safety in the City of Omaha
Isabella Basco
Pedestrian fatalities are rising, according to the numbers from the Nebraska Department of Transportation. Since 2016, 20 people died annually and 400 were injured.
3 News Now talked to people in downtown Omaha to learn more about what's behind the issue and what are the biggest problems people have when it comes to driving safely.
Whether they're cyclists, pedestrians or motorists, Omaha-area residents have one thing in common: they have frustrations with how parts of the city are laid out.
"The other day, I was riding my bike out in Old Mill. I'm going around trying to get onto Dodge Street and some big truck was behind me. There was nowhere for me to get off and get out of his way," resident Robert Glaser said.
"You come across Interstate 480 — I exited on the Harney Street exit there's not really any signage that says there's a bike path," Guy Robarge said.
They also dislike the lack of bike lanes and pedestrian-friendly options.
...
The City of Omaha has its Vision Zero approach, which works toward zero traffic deaths and has been around here for three years. A consultant hired last month should have a report ready next year.
The Vision Zero report would be used to determine any changes and it can't come soon enough for cyclists like Glaser.
"We're about 20 years behind," Glaser said.
The bike and pedestrian master plan is in the works with the city right now and the first stakeholder meeting is scheduled for next week. Council President Pete Festersen says their plan for Vision Zero is just getting started and would have liked to see it move quicker.

Omaha plans open house events to talk about mobility master plan
Omaha residents who want to give the city feedback about its plans for improving pedestrian and bicycling experiences in the city will have a chance to share their thoughts at upcoming open house meetings.
The city said Thursday that it would host two such meetings in November:
5-7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 9, at The Venue at Highlander, located at 2120 N. 30th St.
5-7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 10, at the UNO’s Barbara Weitz Community Engagement Center, located at 6400 University Drive South.
Members of the city’s planning department will be on hand to answer any questions about the vision for “a more complete and connected network for walking, bicycling, and other ‘active mobility’ travel modes serving all areas of the city.”
According to Thursday’s release, Omaha’s proposal will prioritize trail corridors and bike facilities as well as improvements to sidewalks and crossings.

ModeShift hosted Kevin Carder from the City to talk about the bike and pedestrian master plan. Here is the presentation.
I think this is an important point for those who want to see more multimodal infrastructure.
I think this is an important point for those who want to see more multimodal infrastructure.
In response to a question about how to ensure strong implementation, Kevin encouraged Mode Shift and the public to share with officials how much existing infrastructure is appreciated, and the benefits of having an on-street bike system and better walkability. He mentioned that many stakeholders don’t appreciate the benefits provided by strong bike and pedestrian infrastructure.
Re: Complete Streets
Wow this is the first time for me hearing about the Bike/Pedestrian master plan. I am very glad to see something like this being worked on in Omaha since this city is so car-centric. Hopefully this plan comes to fruition. If implemented, it would truly change the entire culture of this city.

The results from the previous plan was sort of sad: ~40% of the designs. But 40% of great plans is still great progress.
It's also nice to see this moving forward. I wasn't able to make the meeting last week...

Re: Complete Streets
I like the idea of having a bike plan, but not a fan of complete streets. For some reason American cities are all pushing complete streets as if they have found miracle cure to safety and mode diversity. News Flash! European cities have had complete streets for over 30 years. They are ripping them all out. They deemed them as extremely expensive to build and maintain, confusing for navigation, and did not perform to the safety standards they were trying to reach.
Why repeat the same mistakes when we can learn from bike cities like: Copenhagen, Netherlands, Bogota, etc.
Current bike lanes "gutter lanes" and ineffective since they are extremely dangerous to ride in. I don't care if you paint them neon green with blinking led lights. What's more important is building a strong network of protected bike lanes.
Possible changes: reducing car speed, narrowing lanes, expanding one-way streets, utilizing a ring road for cars.
We don't need a cookie cutter approach to every one of our streets (car lane, car lane, skinny bike lane, sidewalk, etc)
Added some links for some great resources of bike design and articles.

Re: Complete Streets
It sounds like you’re just not a fan of poorly done complete streets/ineffective politics. As a transportation planner focused on complete streets I too recommend ripping out ineffective bike lanes and prefer separated facilities in many cases.

Re: Complete Streets
In many states we have a 3 foot passing law that gives space so we don't put cyclists in danger. But American bikes lanes are right next to the car lane. Now your 3 foot safety net shrank to inches. If a larger truck with extended side mirrors drives by, you are almost certain to be hit by the vehicle. I can't even count the number of times I have seen cars drift in the bike lane because they are looking down at their phone.TitosBuritoBarn wrote: ↑Wed Mar 29, 2023 5:39 pm It sounds like you’re just not a fan of poorly done complete streets/ineffective politics.

There are good elements in some Complete Streets policies. I just think we can set higher standards. We can build safer streets for a fraction of the cost. And YES! We can still have a great car network that works with a bike/pedestrian focused plan. Put this into perspective....if you don't trust your child or grandma riding in the bike lanes, then the design is not safe enough. If you feel you need to wear a bike helmet, then the design is not safe enough.
You are correct. Not a fan of Complete Streets. Today it's a car lane, bike lane, and sidewalk. Tomorrow the skateboarders, speedwalkers, and dog walkers complain they don't have a lane. So we rewrite the plan for 8 modes and 20 lanes across. Nobody can get anywhere and we are all crashing into each other. It seems to focus more on mode fairness/equality then connectibility and true safety.
