Minimize Stoplights - South Bay

LinkedIn/North Sunnyvale to Campbell

A cycling route starting in Sunnyvale, California, United States of America.

Overview

About this route

1

Primary goal is to minimize number of stoplights, potentially adding 0.1 mi here and there in order to almost eliminate stops.

Avoiding major roads/significant traffic is NOT a goal.  

Key points:

Use Central Expressway to avoid stoplights at:

Maude/Pastoria

Maude/Mathilda

Maude/Borregas

Maude/Sunnyvale

Maude/Fair Oaks

Worlfe/Arques

Arques/Commercial

Lawrence/Kifer

Cost: 0.6mi    

Cut across from Pastoria to Soquel two buildings north of Central. Come out further from the Indio/Soquel/Central merge, which makes the left on Indio a little safer. Also saves 0.13mi    

Avoid the stoplight at California/Mathilda with the California/Sobrante/Central merge. Cost: 0.21mi - This one is questionable. <!>    

Exit before the Central/Lawrence merge.  Use Commercial to avoid stoplight at Lawrence/Kifer and save 0.06mi    

Turning left across Lawrence Expressway on Monroe is not fun - proceed with caution. But using Nobili avoids 3 stoplights and saves 0.35mi compared with Lawrence-El Camino Real - Pomeroy    

Crowley/Wallace/Benton/White avoid a stoplight at Kiely/Benton and Kiely/Kaiser.  Cost: 0.09mi    

Unavoidable STOPLIGHT at Homestead    

Use Tanoak to avoid stoplight at Forbes and Pruneridge  Cost: 0.1mi    

STOPLGIHTS at:

San Tomas/Saratoga

San Tomas/Stevens Creek

San Tomas/Moorpark

San Tomas/Left onto Williams

10.7 miles, 7 stoplights
