Chapter 5:Facility Recommendations
5.4 RECOMMENDED BICYCLE FACILITY IM"
Bicycle facilities vary dramatically from simply additional signage to separated paved
facilities along exclusive rights-of-way.The following projects in Table 5-5 through Table 5-
9 have been identified through public involvement, existing and anticipated future travel
demand, significant destinations for bicyclists, and the existing bicycle network. Planning
level cost estimates have been provided for the recommended bicycle facilities in this section.
More detailed engineering level cost estimates should be undertaken at the time
implementation for each project as individual challenges vary and material costs can escalate
significantly over time. The cost estimates included in this section only account for the
marginal cost of adding bicycle facilities and do not include the cost of right-of-way
acquisition(if applicable),or for major grading associated with roadway widening.Estimates
assume appropriate signage, thermoplastic striping and stenciling (paint is significantly
cheaper but less durable), additional paving (if applicable), curb and gutter, and other
concrete work. For Shared Use paths, a 10 foot wide, 3inch thick asphalt section is assumed
(city standard) if a 6 inch concrete section is used (also city standard) cost will roughly triple
from estimate.
5.4.1 Bike Lanes
A bike lane provides a striped and stenciled lane for one-way travel on a street or highway.
Many of the identified bike lanes will be completed through roadway improvements funded
by new development.Some of the identified projects will need to be completed by the City of
Bozeman, Gallatin County, or MDT through retrofit or as part of maintenance activities
(striping and signage only). Additionally, any roadway to be built within the City of
Bozeman that is a collector or arterial should have a bike lane constructed in accordance with
the recommended roadway standards in Chapter 9.

5.4.2 Shared Roadways
Shared roadways are any on-street facility where bicycles share the travel lanes with
automobiles. Typically, these facilities occur on local roadways or on roadways with low
traffic volumes and speeds. Currently, the City of Bozeman's bike route network identified
in Chapter 2 makes up all of the shared roadways in the study area.Additional treatments to
these roadways constitute a 'Bicycle Boulevard.' Treatments include turning stop signs to
favor bicyclists,pavement markings,wayfinding signage,traffic diverters and other types of
traffic calming. The level of treatment varies between facilities and is dictated by traffic
conditions and safety. Proposed bicycle boulevards should be implemented with pavement
stenciling (shared lane markings), 'City of Bozeman Bike Route' signs, and appropriate
Page 5-34 Robert Peccia&Associates,Inc./ALTA Planning+Design/Cambridge Systematics
Greater Bozeman Area Transportation Plan(2007 Update)
Chapter 5:Facility Recommendations
wayfinding signage ('Downtown','Trails','MSU Campus',etc.).Traffic calming should only
be applied to bicycle boulevards where traffic speeds or volumes are excessive.
It is recommended that pilot bicycle boulevards be implemented on the existing Bike Routes
of Lamme Street from North 11th Avenue to Broadway, on West Koch Street between South
23rd Avenue to South Tracy Avenue, and on a proposed bike routes on North Wallace
Avenue from end to end at the trailheads and on South bat Avenue from West Babcock Street
to West Grant Street.
New bike routes are also identified in Table 5-6.

5.4.3 Shoulder Bikeways
Roadway shoulders can offer many of the benefits of bike lanes without the same level of
infrastructure cost associated with bike lane stencils and signage. Roadway shoulders are
ideal for rural roadways where bicyclists are present. Roadway shoulders should be a
minimum of 4 feet wide with 6 feet recommended. If a rumble strip is necessary it should be
as close to the white (fog) line as possible and have regular skips to allow bicyclists to leave
the shoulder to avoid obstructions or obstacles if necessary. Roads that are recommended for
shoulder bikeways are listed in Table 5-7.

5.4.4 Shared-Use Paths
A shared-use path provides bicycle travel on a paved right-of-way completely separated
from any street or highway. Many shared-use paths in the Bozeman Area follow roadway
rights-of-way with varying amounts of separation. Shared-use paths in the City of Bozeman
are designed to be ten feet wide. Table 5-8 lists the recommended shared-use paths to
complement the existing network. Long-term connectivity to trails outside the study area
boundary, specifically towards Three Forks and Manhattan, should be factored into future
planning efforts and design concepts as the Bozeman to Belgrade trail is realized. This need
is further discussed in the Gallatin County Interconnect Plan.

5.4.5 Bicycle Parking Recommendations:
Adequate bicycle parking is as equally important as the quality of bicycle facilities on the
road. The recommendations for bicycle parking are separated into three categories. First,the
optimal type of bicycle racI< is recommended, followed by locations that are deficient in
bicycle parking, and lastly by recommendations for the UDO and County subdivision
regulations to ensure future development is adequate with regard to bicycle parking.
Recommended Bicycle Rack Types
The Bozeman area has existing bicycle parking that varies dramatically in design and
usability. The following guidelines are intended to aid selection of an appropriate rack
design and still allow for more exotic or artistic rack designs provided they are designed
correctly.
Bicycle Racks must be of a design that meets the requirements below:
Rack Type
The intent of the rack standards section is to ensure that required bicycle racks are
designed so that bicycles may be securely locked to them without undue
inconvenience and will be reasonably safeguarded from accidental damage.
Bicycle racks must hold bicycles securely,and meet the following criteria:
• Support the frame of the bicycle and not just one wheel
• Allow the frame and one wheel to be locked to the rack when both wheels are
left on the bike
Page 5-38 Robert Peccia&Associates,Inc./ALTA Planning+Design/Cambridge Systematics
Greater Bozeman Area Transportation Plan(2007 Update)
Chapter 5:Facility Recommendations
• Allow the frame and both wheels to be locked to the rack if the front wheel is
removed
• Allow the use of either a cable or U-shaped lock
• Be securely anchored
• Be usable by bikes with no kickstand
• Be usable by bikes with water bottle cages
• Be usable by a wide variety of sizes and types of bicycle
Bicycle Parking Location
• Bicycle parking must be located within 50 feet on an entrance to the building.
Bicycle parking should be permanently secured to a paved surface and be
located such that it will not become buried by snow removal operations.
Covered bicycle parking is recommended wherever possible.
• Bicycle parking may be provided within a building, but the location must be
easily accessible.
• Bicycle Rack Design and Installation
• Bicycle racks and the area required for parking and maneuvering must meet
the following standards.
• Bicycle parking spaces must be at least 6 feet long and 2 feet wide, and in
covered situations the overhead clearance must be at least 7 feet.
• An aisle for bicycle maneuvering must be provided and maintained beside or
between each row of bicycle parking.This aisle must be at least 5 feet wide.
• Each required bicycle parking space must be accessible without moving
another bicycle.
• Areas set aside for bicycle parking must be clearly marked and reserved for
bicycle parking only.
Recommended Bicycle Racks: -
"Inverted U"or"Staple"Rack-This type of rack is typically
secured to a concrete base and is very secure and easy to use.
1
Coat Hanger Rack - This rack if used properly can support a
bicycle at two points and can operate fixed to a concrete base
or can be moved where needed.
Post and Loop or'Lollypop'Rack -This rack has many of the
same characteristics as the Inverted U rack, but is more
compact. This type of rack can be installed in series(shown) or r I
along a curb line in the sidewalk furnishing zone. -
Robert Peccia&Associates,Inc.I ALTA Planning+Design I Cambridge Systematics Page 5-39
Greater Bozeman Area Transportation Plan(2007 Update)
Chapter 5:Facility Recommendations
Discouraged Bicycle Racks
' Wheelbender Rack-This rack only supports the wheel
of the bicycle and can cause serious damage to the
bicycle if twisted while secured in the rack. This rack
also does not work with all types of locks.
Comb Rack - This rack suffers from many of the same
shortcomings as the wheelbender type rack where only the front
or rear wheel of the bicycle is supported. Many users of this
rack type lift there bicycle over the top and rest the frame on the
rack to allow use of a bicycle lock. al
Wave Rack-To properly use this rack the cyclist places
the bicycle through the `wave' pattern where it is only
supported at one point. Bicycles parked in these racks
are unstable and frequently tip over. Many cyclists park
their bicycle sideways in this rack to gain stability,
thereby reducing the capacity by 60-80 percent.
Locations Deficient in Bicycle Parkin;
The following locations are high-use areas that lack adequate numbers of bicycle parking
spaces:
Table 5-9
Bicycle Parking Needed
Location Notes
New City Library Racks are constantly overflowing even in inchmate weather.Additional high-quality bicycle parking
needed near main entrance of structure.
County Courthouse Two racks available,additional short-term parking is needed for the public,long-term secure parking
is needed for employees.
Downtown Bozeman Overall numbers of racks are insufficient to meet demand.New racks of the existing design should be
installed on Main Sheet and all cross-streets where space permits.
MSU Library A new bicycle parking area is reconmtended near the front entrance to the library.
Hawthorne School Upgraded bicycle parking is needed with additional racks and a concrete base
Irving School Upgraded bicycle parking is needed with additional racks and a concrete base
Longfellow School Upgraded bicycle parking is needed with additional racks and a concrete base

Greater Bozeman Area Transportation Plan(2007 Update)
Chapter 5:Facility Recommendations
Recommended'Bicycle Parking(Gallatin Count)
It is proposed that Gallatin County incorporate the same bicycle parking requirements as
stated above into existing zoning districts where commercial uses are permitted.
Additionally, Gallatin County should incorporate bicycle parking requirements into any
proposed zoning districts or County-wide zoning efforts for commercial areas. Only those
bicycle parking requirements pertaining to allowed uses for each zoning district should be
included for that district.
RECOMMENDED15.5 • IMPROVEMENTS
The Greater Bozeman Area Transportation Plan acknowledges that equestrians are users of the
transportation system and does not make any recommendation to restrict equestrian access
on trails,paths,or roadways where governing body deems appropriate. Equestrian facilities,
similar to bicycle and pedestrian facilities, can serve both recreational and transportation
uses. This document acknowledges several key destinations for equestrians within the study
area including the Gallatin County Fairgrounds, parts of Montana State University, Equine
Boarding/Training Facilities,and several popular trailhead facilities.
Planning efforts and facility recommendations for equestrian users are expected to be
summarized in an update or addendum to the Bozeman Parks, Recreation, Open Space, &
Trails (PROST) Plan, and the Gallatin County Interconnect Plan. Equestrian facility
improvements shall complement, be consistent with, and implement equestrian facilities as
identified in any officially adopted recreation and/or trails plan.
