The City has an ongoing program to construct sidewalks and bike lanes throughout the community. The Public Works Department maintains a priority list that ranks missing sidewalk locations based on several factors, including pedestrian traffic volumes, proximity to schools, and road classifications. The incomplete sidewalk sections on Conejo School Road and Willow Lane, between Hampshire Road and Hillcrest Drive is a priority location. This area provides connectivity to both sides of the 101 Freeway, and a direct path to the Conejo Elementary School and Thousand Oaks Blvd.  Click on the image for the Concept Plan document.
