This
annual program constructs pedestrian crosswalk enhancements on arterial
streets. Public Works evaluates pedestrian crosswalk requests from
Neighborhood Associations and the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee
(BPAC) prioritizes locations with significant pedestrian demand so that
crosswalks will be installed where they will be most efficient, effective,
and convenient for pedestrians. Full funding has been identified to
construct pedestrian crossings in 2009 at the following locations:
Northwest/Maplewood
North Samish/Newell
Lakeway/Grant
Alabama/Grant
York/Railroad
The purpose of this program is to enhance intersections where there is
high pedestrian traffic to make pedestrians more visible to motorists.
Accomplishments: All concrete work at each intersection is complete and pavement restored. Project is suspended waiting on signal poles to be fabricated.
Next Milestones: Signal pole anticipated delivery by the end of October for installation. Following this, landscape restoration and final inspection will take place.
