Project includes analysis and racks.  Construction cost is $80,000 for 300 racks, or $267 per rack.  Per discussion with [NAME] of [NAME], the project understanding is that the installation program element should be delayed to allow time for plans and agreements, instead of placing all programming in 2012.  In addition, project will include rack installation as well as purchase.  OK to drop benches from proposal, since they may add complexity to project.
6 | BP08123579 | 300000 | 240000 | Y - Parking at Metra Stations | N | Wheaton and College St Metra Station Covered Bicycle Parking  -- Wheaton | As part of the first stage of implementing the Wheaton Bicycle Plan, Wheaton is requesting funding forcovered bicycle parking at its Metra Stations.

Bicycle Encouragement Projects
11 | BP03123585 | 96000 | 76800 | Y - Bike to [NAME] | N | Bike-to-[NAME]: Round 2 (Regionwide)  -- Schaumburg | This project prepares customized bike-to-Metra guides for at least 16 communities.  The customized guides feature a local map with preferred bicycling routes to the station or stations, as well as logistical and bicycle safety information. They also highlight the financial, environmental and health benefits of cycling. They are distributed at Metra stations, community events and online.

Note:  project should not be analyzed as a bicycle facility, since the facility already exists.  Rather, this is an enhancement to the existing facility.  Project description makes cogent argument for lighting along this facility, for serving commuters who are not on 9-to-5 schedules.
Other (Bicycle/Pedestrian) Projects
16 | OT01123608 | 2100000 | 1680000 | Y - will remove snow from transit walking routes | Y - Sidewalk snow removal campaign | Chicago Sidewalk Snow Removal Campaign  -- CDOT | An average of 74 days per year with snow on the ground produces serious barriers to walking and fixed-route transit use.  The project will implement a program in 10 wards, each with 44 miles of priority sidewalk.  The program will consits of marketing and education materials (PSAs, brochures regarding winter walking and transit use, training for plow drivers regarding maximizing pedestrian access, and other campaign materials.  In addition, in the 10 wards, 44 miles of priority sidewalks will be identified.  Staff and volunteers will be identified to assure clearance of the priority routes.  Purchase equipment for the support of the plans.
17 | OT01123609 | 22500000 | 18000000 | Y - will support non-motorized transportation for the last mile of transit trips in Chicago Central Area | Y - Innovative bike share program for Chicago | Chicago Bike Sharing Program - Startup  -- CDOT | The program is an automated self-serve bike sharing system with 3,500 bicycles in Chicago.  This system allows bicycles to be rented at one location and returned at another location.  The first 30 minutes are free to the user, to encourage trips under 5 miles.  The bicycles would be located in the dense core of the city on public right of way.  In this area, 200K people live and 500K people work.  The system would begin with 2500 bikes in 2014, with an additional 1000 bikes in 2016.  Bicycles and docking stations would be removed for the winter months. Funding is requested for 25% of the operating costs; user fees, advertising, and sponsorships would cover the remaining costs.
