A L T 5’ Sidewalk 1 5’ ~2’ ~3.5’ 12’ curb & sidewalk bike lane travel lane gutter A L T 8’ Sidewalk 2 ORIGINAL 8’ ~2’ ~3.5’ 12’ curb & sidewalk bike lane travel lane gutter ALTERNATIVES A L T Multi-Use Path 3 + Bike Lane 12’ 12’ 5’ ~2 ~3.5’ curb & multi-use path planting bike lane travel lane gutter A L T Multi-Use Path, 4 No Bike Lane 12’ 5’ 12’ ~2’ ROW Line curb & planting travel lane multi-use path gutter

CHALLENGES RIGHT OF WAY UTILITIES/STORMWATER MONUMENTS/SIGNAGE • • • Before 1962 Folly Road was two lanes Utility poles are a major challenge along the Most businesses along Folly Road have with a 50’ ROW, then SCDOT expanded corridor for each alternative signs that are typically at ROW edge to a ~70’ ROW • • There will not be a significant impact on below Signs are expensive and difficult to • Generally 35’ feet along the west side ground utilities relocate of Folly Road • • Telephone pedestals, gas monuments, Relocation Costs: • 32.5’ pavement backflow preventers would need to be • Monuments signs: $10,000 • 1.5’ curb & gutter relocated • Post signs: $5,900 • • Approximate cost of ROW purchase = Existing site drainage would be impacted for 3 • Traffic signs: $500 $40/sq. ft businesses • Eliminating existing bike lane requires upgrades to Folly Road drainage system

RECOMMENDATION 8’ Sidewalk + A L T Utility Relocation + 2b Future Bike Improvements Install 8’ sidewalk at back of curb & 1 relocate overhead power lines (approx. 2.1M ) Restripe Folly Road & paint bike path 2 to provide proper bike path width (approx. $400,000 - $1.1M ) Request SCDOT perform a speed 3 study to lower the speed limit
