The City, with funding from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission's Transportation Development Act Article 3 Pedestrian and Bicycle Project program, has developed a comprehensive update to the 2007 Circulation Plan for Bicyclists and Pedestrians. Intended to reflect current best practices, the update builds off the City's 2009 ADA Transition Plan and 2013 Climate Action Plan, and takes into account the City of Richmond's Bicycle Master Plan and the City of Albany's Active Transportation Plan.The Plan includes nine detailed projects, revised bicycle and pedestrian networks, a policy toolkit and program framework to make walking and biking easier in El Cerrito. The nine detailed projects are:
- BART to Bay Trail Access Improvements at Central Avenue, Carlson Boulevard, and Cerrito Creek Connections between Plaza BART and the Bay Trail
- Ohlone Greenway Crossing Improvements - Citywide
- Citywide Wayfinding at Key Walking and Biking Routes
- Arlington Boulevard Pedestrian Improvements
- East Side Bicycle Boulevard - Blake Street, Norvell Street, Schmidt Lane, Richmond Street
- Moeser Lane, Norvell Street, Lincoln Avenue, Albemarle Street, Behrens Street
- Wayfinding associated with East Side Bicycle Boulevard
- Key Boulevard Improvements - between Humboldt Street and Hill Street
