<br />. Provide input into the rail corridor planning and abandonment processes. If <br />rails are removed, the corridors should be preserved for public uses such as <br />light rail or pathways. <br /> <br />A. If there is rail line abandonment in Roseville, an appropriate public <br />agency should acquire the land for public purposes. <br /> <br />B. Light rail planning should receive input from Roseville. The City should <br />preserve potential rights-of-way and station locations. <br /> <br />· Cooperate with state and federal agencies and railroad companies to enhance <br />safety at all highway and pedestrian crossings. <br /> <br />· Expanding Roseville's non-motorized off-street pathway system is a high <br />priority. The current pathway plan, Appendix 12.9B, is updated yearly by the <br />Citizens Pathway Committee. This plan was developed using the following <br />points as guiding principles: <br /> <br />A. Consider construction of non-motorized pathways when streets or <br />parking lots are designed or improved. All minor arterial roadways <br />should have paths on at least one side and preferably both sides of the <br />street. <br /> <br />B. Agree to acquire land and build structures where necessary for <br />continuous pathways. Light where necessary. <br /> <br />C. Develop safe bicycle and pedestrian movement throughout the City. As <br />well as around, between, and among the major parking areas, shopping <br />centers of Har Mar, Rosedale, and all the Rosedale satellites (this <br />consideration should be made for all other shopping areas in Roseville) <br />Provide accommodations for secure bicycle storage. <br /> <br />D. Design pathways removed from heavily traveled streets, but only if it can <br />be done without sacrificing personal security. <br /> <br />E. Increase attention to street crossings with proper marking, lighting, and <br />signals including provisions for the slower movement of the handicapped. <br /> <br />F. Enhance pathways by using them to demonstrate strong programs of <br />environmental protection such as native plantings, reforestation, and <br />general beautification. <br /> <br />G. Require non-motorized pathways in all new developments. <br /> <br />Roseville Comprehensive Plan - 2003 Update <br /> <br />Transportation - Page 3 of 28 <br />
