Chandler Bicycle Connection
The Chandler Bicycle Connection will upgrade existing, 5’-wide bicycle lanes on Chandler Boulevard to protected bicycle lanes by adding physical barriers, such as bollards, in order to separate people traveling in the bike lane from moving vehicles. The goal of the project is to create a seamless, low-stress bicycle corridor for people of all ages and abilities by closing a current gap in the low-stress bikeway network between the existing Chandler Bikeway and the Orange Line Bike Path. (A low-stress bikeway is one that is comfortable for bicyclists of all ages and abilities, not just experienced riders.)
Once completed, the project will establish a continuous route of protected and off-street bikeways from Burbank to the Sepulveda Basin. The project right-of-way is exclusively located on-street and owned and operated by the City of Los Angeles. The project is consistent with the Mobility Plan, which designates Chandler Boulevard as a striped bike lane in the Tier 2 Bike Lane Network.
