Sharrows
Sharrows or shared lane pavement markings are bicycle symbols that are placed in the roadway lane indicating that motorists should expect to share the lane with bicycles and vice-versa. Sharrows also serve to guide bicyclists away from the hazardous "door zone" beside parked cars, and function as positioning cues.
Measure M Projects
Sonoma County instituted a 1/4 cent sales tax with the passage of Measure M in 2004. Through a public process involving the cities, Sonoma County, Caltrans, and members of the public, the Sonoma County Transportation Authority has developed a transportation strategy for our county. In this section are current projects funded through Measure M.
