1/19/23 East 13th Developments and Safety Plan

Posted on by jude

A traffic control plan has been approved and will be implemented in phases. The fence line has already been moved back to the north curb, allowing west bound bicycle traffic.

 

By the end of this week (1/20/23), the city plans to install water filled barriers on the portion of the street that currently has the dashed bike lane lines. This will create a protected bike/ped area on the north side of the street. This is intended to function as shared use path with both bikes and peds traveling both directions

 

On the south side of the street, the existing back-in parking will be removed to create an eastbound vehicle lane allowing LTD buses and other vehicles through. There will initially be a parallel parking area on the far south side of the street. This will convert to a pedestrian path when the Taylor’s redevelopment takes over the sidewalk on the south side.
