Take a look at the statewide Complete Streets updates

On September 30, 2008 Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed AB 1358, The California Complete Streets Act. AB 1358 impacts local general plans by requiring local general plan circulation element updates "to plan for a balanced, multimodal transportation network that meets the needs of all users of the streets, roads, and highways for safe and convenient travel in a manner that is suitable to the rural, suburban, or urban context of the general plan."

The change in guidelines means that cities and counties cannot ignore complete streets elements such as bicycle, pedestrian, disabled, and transit facilities when updating their general plans. In response, OPR has developed the Update to the General Plan Guidelines: Complete Streets and the Circulation Element.
