WE SEE STREETS LINED WITH HOMES, BUSTLING SHOPS AND RESTAURANTS. WE SEE BRIDGES AND WATERWAYS WHERE PEOPLE ON BICYCLES AND ON FOOT TRAVEL ALONGSIDE BUSES AND CARS ON THEIR WAY TO WORK, TO THE DOCTOR, TO THE GROCERY STORE - FREELY AND SAFELY. FOR THE 2020 YEAR, 0.84 CENTS OF EVERY DOLLAR SPENT WENT TO OUR CHARITABLE PROGRAMS. WHAT WE ARE DOING: BRIDGE THE ASHLEY OUR BRIDGETHEASHLEY CAMPAIGN FOCUSES ON ACHIEVING SAFE BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS FOR THE ASHLEY RIVER BRIDGE BETWEEN WEST ASHLEY AND DOWNTOWN, THE NORTH BRIDGE BETWEEN WEST ASHLEY AND NORTH CHARLESTON, THE JAMES ISLAND CONNECTOR, AND, BECAUSE IT IS A GAP TO TWO OF THOSE CROSSINGS, WE ALSO NEED BIKE/PED ACCESS OVER THE WAPPOO CUT BRIDGE. CONNECTING WEST ASHLEY AND THE PENINSULA VIA A SAFE, MULTI-MODAL CROSSING HAS BEEN A PRIORITY OF CHARLES-TON MOVES FOR AT LEAST A DECADE. THE CONNECTION IS ALSO PRIORITIZED IN THE WEST ASHLEY PLAN, PEOPLE PEDAL CHS, BATTERY2BEACH, AND THE EAST COAST GREENWAY. WE HAVE WORKED WITH THE COMMUNITY AND ELECTED OFFI-CIALS TO DILIGENTLY ADVOCATE FOR THIS CROSSING. NOW THAT THE CITY OF CHARLESTON IS LEADING ON DESIGN, PERMITTING AND CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW BIKE/PED BRIDGE, WE HAVE KEPT IN CONSTANT COMMUNICATION WITH THE STAFF AND AD-VERTISED WHEN PRESENTATIONS WOULD OCCUR FOR THE PUBLIC TO GET UPDATES. 2020 BEGAN BY BUILDING OFF OF LAST YEAR'S DISCUSSIONS AROUND THE NORTH BRIDGE TO COSGROVE AVENUE THAT WE HAD BEEN HAVING WITH CITIZENS, BUSINESS OWNERS, PLANNERS AND ELECTED OFFICIALS. WE BUILT A SOLID AND DIVERSE COALITION OF ADVOCACY ORGANIZATIONS, ATTORNEYS, COUNCILMEMBERS AND STATE LEGISLATORS, LAW ENFORCEMENT, COMMUNITY GROUPS AND BUSINESSES, AND ENCOURAGED CHARLESTON COUNTY COUNCIL TO FUND THE NECESSARY CON-CEPTUAL ENGINEERING AND RENDERING FOR BIKE/PED ACCESS ACROSS THE NORTH BRIDGE, WHICH THEY UNANIMOUSLY AGREED TO DO. THE COUNTY'S CONSULTANTS ARE WORKING ON THE PLANS NOW. WE WILL BE ASSISTING WITH OUTREACH ON THAT WORK. HIGHWAY 41 CORRIDOR AFTER SERVING ON THE HIGHWAY 41 STAKEHOLDER WORKING GROUP FOR SEVERAL YEARS, WE ARE DETERMINED TO GET THE DESIGNS NOT ONLY INCLUSIVE OF MULTIPLE MODES OF TRANSPORTATION, BUT ALSO COMPLEMENTING, RATHER THAN HARM-ING, THE NEIGHBORHOODS AFFECTED. ALONGSIDE NONPROFIT PARTNERS AND THE PHILLIPS AND SEVEN MILE COMMUNITIES, WHICH ARE HISTORIC AFRICAN AMERICAN SETTLEMENT COMMUNITIES IN MOUNT PLEASANT, WE HAVE BEEN ADAMANT THAT THE HIGHWAY 41 IMPROVEMENTS COULD BE DESIGNED TO ACTUALLY SERVE THE COMMUNITY. THE CURRENT "PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE" THAT WAS RECOMMENDED BY THE PROJECT CONSULTANTS IS DAMAGING, WIDENING THE HIGHWAY TO 5 LANES THROUGH THESE COMMUNITIES AND AVOIDING NEWER SUBDIVISIONS. IT ALSO WILL NOT SOLVE TRAFFIC CONGESTION PROBLEMS, NOR WILL IT BE SAFER. ALL OF THESE FACTS ARE OUTLINED IN THE COUNTY'S STUDIES. WE BELIEVE THAT ELEMENTS FROM PREVIOUSLY EXAMINED DESIGNS COULD BE UTILIZED FOR A BETTER, MORE BENEFICIAL PROJECT, INCLUDING DESIGNS THAT HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED AND PRESENTED BY THE SETTLEMENT COMMUNITIES REPEATEDLY FOR YEARS. THEIR PLANS INCLUDE THINGS LIKE A BIKE/PED TRAIL, A VEGETATED MEDIAN WITH INTERMITTENT TURNING ALLOWANCES, ROUNDABOUTS, AND PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS TO LINK THE COMMUNITY DIVIDED BY THE ORIGINAL HIGHWAY 41, BACK TOGETHER. I-526 LOWCOUNTRY CORRIDOR THE LOWCOUNTRY CORRIDOR PROJECT IS ESSENTIALLY A PROPOSED WIDENING OF THE EXISTING 526 SPAN. IT IS DIVIDED INTO TWO SEGMENTS: WEST AND EAST. WEST RUNS FROM WEST ASHLEY TO NORTH CHARLESTON, AND EAST RUNS FROM NORTH CHARLESTON THROUGH DANIEL ISLAND TO MOUNT PLEASANT. FOR SEVERAL YEARS, WE HAVE PARTICIPATED IN THE STAKEHOLDER COMMITTEE DISCUSSIONS, AND HAVE CONTINUOUSLY REQUESTED THAT THE PROJECT INCLUDE SPACE FOR BIKERS, WALKERS AND A LANE FOR PUBLIC TRANSIT. THIS IS IMPORTANT FOR MULTIPLE REASONS: + MANY RESIDENTS IMPACTED BY THIS PROJECT DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO A MOTOR VEHICLE. THIS PROJECT NEEDS TO IN-CLUDE MODES OF TRANSPORTATION THAT THE AFFECTED COMMUNITIES CAN UTILIZE. + THIS IS THE ONLY OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS BIKE/PED CROSSINGS FOR THE 526 SEGMENTS SPANNING WATER. THE WESTMORELAND BRIDGE, THE DON HOLT BRIDGE, AND THE WANDO RIVER BRIDGE ARE ALL PRIME OPPORTUNITIES TO CONNECT THE REGION FOR PEOPLE TO BIKE AND WALK. MISSING THIS OPPORTUNITY WOULD BE ON PAR WITH NOT BUILD-ING WONDERS' WAY ON THE RAVENEL. + THE BERKELEY CHARLESTON DORCHESTER COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS (BCDCOG) HAS ANALYZED TRANSIT PATTERNS AND DETERMINED FEASIBLE EXPANSIONS FOR PUBLIC TRANSIT ROUTES THROUGHOUT THE REGION. THIS INCLUDES FUTURE BUS RAPID TRANSIT ROUTES, AS WELL AS GOOD CANDIDATES FOR EXPRESS AND COMMUTER ROUTES, PARTICULARLY TIED TO PARK-AND-RIDES. THE 526 CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENTS COULD, IF DONE RIGHT, BE AN EXCELLENT TRANSIT LINK. + THE SCDOT HAS SAID REPEATEDLY THAT THEY UNDERSTAND WE CANNOT WIDEN OUR WAY OUT OF TRAFFIC CONGESTION; WE HAVE TO SPLIT THE MODE SHARE. FURTHER, THERE WILL BE SIGNIFICANT AIR POLLUTION, HEALTH, AND FLOODING IM-PACTS ASSOCIATED WITH A PROJECT THAT IS SIMPLY FOCUSED ON THE MOVEMENT OF CARS. PROVIDING MULTI-MODAL COULD HELP MITIGATE THOSE NEGATIVE EFFECTS. + THE COMMUNITY SHOULD NOT BE FURTHER DIVIDED BY A HIGHWAY. THIS PROJECT SHOULD FOCUS ON ASSISTING WITH A MULTI-MODAL GRID, BETTER CONNECTING COMMUNITY MEMBERS, WHETHER OR NOT THEY RELY ON A CAR. MANY MEM-BERS OF THE COMMUNITY WERE ALREADY IMPACTED WHEN THIS HIGHWAY WAS FIRST BUILT. AFTER REPEATEDLY MAKING THE CASE FOR MULTI-MODAL TO BE INCLUDED IN THE PROJECT FOR YEARS, IN COORDINATION WITH THE AFFECTED MUNICIPALITIES, AND ENCOURAGING OUR ADVOCATES TO SUBMIT COMMENTS IN SUPPORT OF THAT AS-PECT, WE BEGAN WORKING ON A RESOLUTION THAT WAS RECENTLY PASSED BY THE BCDCOG BOARD OF DIRECTORS, IN SUPPORT OF MULTI-MODAL WITH THE COST PAID BY THE STATE AND FEDS. DURING 2020, WE FINALLY MADE SOME PRO-GRESS, PARTICIPATING IN A WORKSHOP ALONGSIDE RELEVANT GOVERNMENT AGENCIES TO DELVE INTO THE DETAILS OF IN-CLUDING A MULTI-USE PATH ALONG THE ROUTE, AND THE SCDOT HAS ACTUALLY SUBMITTED A PERMIT APPLICATION TO THE ARMY CORPS THAT INCLUDES A BASIC PATH ON THE RIVER CROSSINGS. WHILE THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS, THIS IS AN EN- COURAGING STEP FORWARD. MOUNT PLEASANT WAY WE HAVE BEEN PARTICIPATING IN THE TOWN OF MOUNT PLEASANT'S MOUNT PLEASANT WAY PLAN DEVELOPMENT. MOUNT PLEASANT WAY WILL BE A TOWN-WIDE BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN SYSTEM, PROPOSED BY CITIZENS DURING THE TOWN'S MOST RECENT COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING PROCESS. THE PLAN IS COMING ALONG NICELY, WITH SEVERAL OPPORTUNI-TIES FOR PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT. WE ALSO PROTECTED THE PLAN AND ITS FUNDING THIS YEAR WHEN AN ELECTED OFFICIAL WANTED TO SHIFT MONEY FROM MOUNT PLEASANT WAY TO ANOTHER PROJECT IDEA. WE SOUNDED THE ALARM, AND OUR ADVOCATES RESPONDED, LETTING TOWN COUNCIL KNOW THAT THE PROJECT IS CRITICAL FOR SAFE AND ENJOYABLE OPTIONS TO GET AROUND MOUNT PLEASANT. COUNCIL KEPT THE FUNDING IN PLACE. OPEN STREETS IN THE MIDST OF OUR WORK CAME THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. NATIONWIDE TRENDS CHANGED AS PUBLIC SAFETY PROTO-COLS WERE IMPLEMENTED, WITH SOME OF THE MOST NOTICEABLE BEING THAT BIKE SHOPS BECAME INUNDATED WITH CUS-TOMERS, BOTH BUYING AND REPAIRING BICYCLES, AND MOTORIZED VEHICLE TRAFFIC DROPPED DRAMATICALLY, OPENING UP OUR STREETS FOR OTHER POSSIBILITIES. PEOPLE NEEDED TO BE ABLE TO BIKE AND WALK SAFELY, WHETHER FOR RECREATION OR SOCIALLY- DISTANCED TRANSPORTATION NEEDS. IT ALSO BECAME CLEAR THAT GATHERING INDOORS SHOULD BE AVOIDED AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, AND SO REBALANCING THE USE OF OUTDOOR SPACE WOULD BE KEY TO PROTECTING OUR SAFETY AND HEALTH, AND RETAINING SOME SEMBLANCE OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS. WE ACTED IMMEDIATELY AND SUCCESSFULLY TO ENSURE THAT BIKE SHOPS WERE CATEGORIZED AS "ESSENTIAL BUSINESS" IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND DID NOT HAVE TO CLOSE DURING LOCKDOWN. WE THEN WATCHED CLOSELY AS OTHER CITIES BEGAN IMPLEMENTING OUTDOOR DINING AND OPEN STREETS PROJECTS. WE REACHED OUT TO LOCAL BUSINESSES TO FIND OUT IF THEY WOULD SUPPORT CHANGING THE STREETSCAPE FOR THE BENEFIT OF THEIR WORK AND FOR THE PUBLIC. WE HAD BOTH A SURVEY AND A PETITION GOING FOR PEOPLE TO TELL US WHAT THEY WANTED TO SEE AND WHAT THEY WOULD SUPPORT--WE NEEDED THAT DATA TO KNOW WHERE TO FOCUS AND WHY. WE INTERVIEWED PLANNERS AND LAW ENFORCEMENT IN OTHER CITIES ACROSS THE NATION, TO LEARN WHAT THEY WERE DOING, HOW THEY WERE INSTALLING THESE PILOT PROJECTS, AND WHAT LESSONS THEY TOOK AWAY. WE WERE IN REGULAR COMMU-NICATION WITH LOCAL ELECTED OFFICIALS AND STAFF MEMBERS TO DETERMINE HOW TO BEGIN PILOTING PROJECTS. MARY MURRAY DRIVE AROUND HAMPTON PARK WAS A START: THE PARKS & RECREATION DEPARTMENT WAS TASKED WITH CLOS-ING THE CIRCLE TO CARS FOR EXTENDED HOURS THROUGHOUT THE WEEK. DESPITE RECORD NUMBERS OF BIKE/PED USERS, COUNTED BY BOTH A COLLEGE OF CHARLESTON RESEARCHER AND THE CITY'S DEPARTMENT OF TRAFFIC & TRANSPORTATION, THE PARKS & REC DEPARTMENT DECIDED THEY DID NOT SUPPORT CONTINUING THE PROGRAM.
