TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 3 LIST OF APPENDICES - APPENDIX A – Improvement Plans Exhibit - APPENDIX B – Typical Sections - APPENDIX C – Preliminary Cost Estimates

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 4 Introduction and Overview This Connectivity Master Plan serves the interest of improving non-vehicular accessibility to local attractions through wayfinding, bicycle and pedestrian paths, and waterway transportation. The selected project sites and their corresponding information (conceptual design, cost estimates) under this Master Plan will serve for future incorporation into the city’s Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) budget. Projects were planned for and selected through a careful process of field reviews, public outreach and feedback and cost estimates. By connecting existing pedestrian, bicycle and waterway paths with proposed projects, residents and visitors have safer alternatives to high traffic roadways to access popular destinations around the city. Encouraging secondary modes of transportation to cars also improves vehicle congestion and parking on popular roads and in parking lots of city amenities. In 2021, the City identified the need for an analysis of the current connectivity network for pedestrian and bicycle facilities within the city boundary. DRMP was tasked with an initial review of existing connectivity conditions, creation of a GIS webmap to show existing conditions, identifying and development of conceptual sites for improvements (divided into Minor and Major improvement projects) and summarizing findings in a report. A Traffic, Safety, & Mobility Public Engagement Workshop was held on 3/25/2023 to gather input from the public and residents. A Traffic, Safety, & Mobility Business Stakeholder Meeting was held on 4/5/2023 to go over the improvement projects and gather input from local business owners. Figure 1: DRMP staff going over the project descriptions at the Public Engagement Workshop

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 5 Methodology Existing Conditions Analysis DRMP staff began this effort by compiling and reviewing the existing condition of the connectivity network within the city. DRMP obtained the City’s comprehensive GIS geodatabase and used it to map sidewalks, bike lanes, crosswalks, intracoastal access points, and all other available data regarding existing infrastructure. The existing GIS data pointed the DRMP team in the direction of areas that may be lacking in connectivity so that later field visits would be more focused. An ESRI Story Map was created that depicted the current connectivity network and infrastructure and included other information related to connectivity and Transportation Safety. Crash data was obtained from Forward Pinellas so that it could be analyzed in the context of the connectivity network. Bus ridership data was requested from PST A and included in the story map. Field Review Once the office review of current connectivity data was complete, DRMP staff completed several field reviews. Staff visited the city three times formally and several other times informally to observe current conditions. Staff carried a tablet with an ArcGIS Collector map with the ability to draw points and lines for possible improvement opportunities, as well as take notes and attach photographs. Staff spent time in major destination areas and residential neighborhoods observing current conditions and active users of existing facilities. The DRMP team was able to speak to members of the public and ask for their opinions on possible upgrades. This real time public feedback by actual users was very helpful for identifying impactful improvements. The tablet map enabled the team to record any and all conditions that seemed noteworthy so that there were many options to consider at the later city staff review. City Staff Review DRMP staff met with Treasure Island staff to review the total list of identified opportunities and decide which could be pursued. Some identified opportunities were already part of work plans and did not need to be included in this study. Some opportunities were not feasible or not wanted by City staff and were not included in the study. Additionally, by this point, other consultants had been tasked with focus on the downtown area, so DRMP did not focus on downtown projects. Ultimately the list of observed opportunities was pared down to include a set of impactful and feasible major and minor projects. Public Involvement and Feedback While initially not part of the scope of this effort, DRMP was asked to participate in several public involvement meetings to gather public feedback on proposed projects. A Traffic, Safety, & Mobility Public Engagement Workshop was held on March 25, 2023 to gather input from the public and residents. This workshop was open house style so that the general public could walk around and speak with consultants for this project and other transportation and connectivity projects. DRMP staff

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 6 attended with printed exhibits of select projects and gathered feedback from those that had input or questions. A Traffic, Safety, & Mobility Business Stakeholder Meeting was held on April 5, 2023 to go over the improvement projects and gather input from local business owners. This meeting was a more traditional presentation style with some questions taken from the audience, and the ability for attendees to ask questions on a one-on-one basis afterwards. Attendees also left comment cards. Typical sections and cost estimating As defined by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), the primary purpose of typical sections is to provide sectional depictions of the roadway or bridge elements that illustrate “typical” conditions found between specified lengths of the project/corridor. Typical sections for the Major Projects in this report were developed from site visits, field observations, use of aerials, and use of information from the Pinellas County Property Appraiser website. It is recommended that topographic survey is performed during the design stage of these projects. For cost estimating purposes, historical FDOT statewide and Area 8 (Pinellas County) unit costs were used as much as feasible. Unit costs were adjusted to account for current market adjustments and contingencies were added since all cost estimates provided in this report are preliminary and based on high-end concepts developed without the aid of survey data and other design components such as geotechnical information.

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 7 Major Projects Overview The following major project recommendations are a collection of improvements to connectivity within the City of Treasure Island that would significantly impact the network that allows pedestrians, cyclists, and other micromobility users to get around the city efficiently and safely. The existing Beach Trail provides a unique opportunity for pedestrians and micromobility users to not only enjoy a view of the beach, but remain protected from vehicular traffic on Gulf Boulevard. Currently, that opportunity only exists for a portion of the main island, but two proposed projects would extend this protected path from Sunset Vista Park to the northern extent of the City. The addition of Pirate Alley and the Beach Trail Extension would create a comprehensive alternative corridor to Gulf Boulevard. To the north, Pirate Alley would remove micromobility users from the main stretch of Gulf Boulevard and route them to the alley that parallels it, with drainage and surface improvements that would make it more suitable for bicycles and pedestrians. South of the existing beach trail, an extension of the trail would take users all the way to a logical end point and improve an already iconic feature. Figure 2: Sample of two major projects that will help with connectivity and safety throughout the City: Pirate Alley (to the north) and Beach Trail extension (to the south) The addition of pedestrian facilities through the main backbones of Paradise Island, Isle of Capri, and Isle of Palms would significantly extend the network of protected pedestrian facilities and allow connectivity to major arteries and thoroughfares such as Gulf Boulevard. A new waterway trail and a city-wide wayfinding project will create an alternative mode of transportation and network of connectivity within the city while providing a cohesive suite of signage to make sure that it is easy to get around and take advantage of all of these transportation amenities.

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 8 Projects are prioritized based on the impact that they will have on high use areas, and the ease of implementation. The recommended implementation over a 5-year period for major projects is as follows: Table 1: Major Projects implementation summary table Project Implementation Year Beach Trail Extension Pirate Alley Waterway Trail Gulf Front Park Pedestrian Flow Improvements Bayshore Drive Sidewalk Capri Boulevard/ Isle of Capri Sidewalks 115th Avenue/Isle of Palms Sidewalks Paradise Island and Treasure Lane Sidewalks 2nd St East Sidewalk and Roadway Improvements City-wide Wayfinding

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 9 Major Projects Beach Trail Extension Project Location The Beach Trail Extension project plans to extend the existing beach trail network to the south of its existing location. The existing beach trail is located south of Gulf Boulevard along Treasure Island Beach and runs from 119th Avenue to the Gulf Front parking lot located at the intersection of Gulf Boulevard and 10th Avenue. The proposed trail extension will run south and end near 104th Avenue by the Sunset Vista Park. Figure 3: Location for the Beach Trail extension project

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 10 Existing Conditions / Need for Improvement The existing beach trail is approximately 0.8 miles long and was built in 1966 and underwent several changes including widening and renovations including addition of turtle friendly beach walls, with the latest construction being in 2013. The existing typical layout features an 11-ft wide trail (concrete surface) with the turtle-friendly wall that also acts as a low-seating wall, facing the beach side. Low- level lighting is available for nighttime use. The existing area where the trail extension would go is in proximity with existing residences and hotels and does not have any major structures in its path. The South Beach Trail is a popular attraction for Treasure Island pedestrians who can walk or bike ride on the path daily. The existing trail ends near 104th avenue that ties into sandy beach areas with no other beach path to continue for 0.72 miles at the Sunset Vista Park. The end connection of Sunset Vista Park Trailhead has an existing walkway from parking areas to that lead to the beach as well. Figure 4: Existing beach trail Recommendation for Improvements A proposed beach trail extension to the south is recommended to tie-in from the existing Treasure Island Beach Trail to the north. This extension will run approximately for 0.72 miles and match the typical section of the existing trail, as well as providing a connection to the Sunset Vista Park trailhead, therefore extending the beach trail network and providing an alternate route for users to enjoy instead of using Gulf Boulevard. The existing beach trail is one of the main attractions of the City and widely used by pedestrians, cyclists, and micromobility users. Proposed lighting will need to be added to the extension trail to provide continuity with the beach trail use. Please refer to Appendix X for the recommended improvements exhibit for this project and to Appendix X for the project typical section(s).

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 11 Cost Estimates Based on historical cost data from the existing trail project, the estimate construction cost for the extension is of $2,800,000 for the aforementioned 0.72-mile trail continuation. This estimate will become more accurate as the project moves into the design phase and is subject to change due to market adjustments.

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 12 Pirate Alley Project Location The proposed route of Pirate Alley is the alley right of way that parallels between Gulf Boulevard (to the south) and Lagoon Lane (to the north) between 119th Avenue and 127th Avenue. Figure 5: Location for the Pirate Alley project Existing Conditions / Need for Improvement The existing alley features a 13-ft to 15-ft wide paved alley roadway that serves predominantly the back of residences and is used by local traffic and deliveries. The alley roadway is not bordered by any sort of curb/gutter and does not have any pavement markings, stop signs, or pedestrian crossing warnings. despite being used as a two-way venue. Throughout the corridor, intersections are at higher surface elevations creating sudden grade breaks and therefore causing traffic to bottom out and scrape the roadway. Certain intersections were also noted to have low spots creating ponding situations after storm events.

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 13 The south end of this corridor ends at 119th Avenue and Sunshine Lane, which marks the beginning of the North Beach Trail along Treasure Island Beach. Figure 6: Existing typical section view of the alley (facing south)

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 14 Figure 7: Sudden grade breaks are causing vehicular traffic to scrape the roadway surface as shown. Additionally, ponding is occurring at certain low spots over existing gutters.

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 15 Figure 8 Existing drainage structures (inlets, manholes) and utility features will need to be adjusted for this project to accommodate raised crosswalks Recommendation for Improvements This corridor presents a unique opportunity to expand connectivity of the Treasure Island Beach Trail while providing pedestrian, cyclists, and micromobility users a safe travel alternative to Gulf Boulevard. Because of the geometry and proximity to existing residences, there is very limited room within the corridor for widening and roadside improvement opportunities. Due to redevelopment challenges, the alley will need to continue allowing vehicular traffic since certain residences may only have access via the alley. Due to this situation, signage allowing only local traffic, delivery and emergency vehicle access will need to be used to reduce vehicular use. In order to increase safety and address sudden grade breaks and/or ponding issues at the intersections throughout the corridor, raised crosswalks can be implemented to slow traffic down and create a stop condition to provide a safe crossing for Pirate Alley users and enhance the pedestrian crossing environment and aesthetics if the use of pavers or other features are implemented on the raised crosswalks. Per the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), raised crosswalk can reduce pedestrian crashes by 45%, therefore increasing safety. Corresponding advanced warning signs for both alley users and side street traffic will need to be added accordingly. It is recommended that a traffic study is performed leading up to the design stage of this project to ensure the addition of raised crosswalks will not create a queuing issue along the side streets due to the proximity of the alley to Gulf Boulevard.

TREASURE ISLAND CONNECTIVITY MASTER PLAN 16 Existing utility pull boxes, inlets, and manhole structures will need to be relocated and/or adjusted in order to construct the raised crosswalks. Since the existing pavement conditions range from poor to fair, it is recommended that the corridor is milled and resurfaced at the very least. Another goal of this project is to provide an alternate route of travel for pedestrians, cyclists, and micromobility users to Gulf Boulevard and connect to the existing North Beach Trail. Custom wayfinding signage should be considered to guide users to this project (refer to Wayfinding section of this report for sample signage). Please refer to Appendix A for the recommended improvements exhibit for this project and to Appendix B for the project typical section(s). Figure 9: Sample plan exhibit of a raised crosswalk to be used at the alley intersections Public Input This project was well received at the Traffic, Safety, & Mobility Public Engagement Workshop held on 3/25/2023. Residents agreed that is a good idea to provide a formal trail/shared-use path of sorts since several residents already use this corridor for their morning walks and jogs. Since the use of raised crosswalks as countermeasure can cause discomfort and noise (especially with larger vehicles), it may be appropriate to get more public input as project approaches its design stage. Cost Estimates A preliminary construction cost estimate indicates t
