The goal is to demonstrate and assess the effectiveness of the improved pedestrian and bicycle features.
The project also includes installing temporary traffic delineators and devices at the Orange Grove Avenue and Park Avenue intersection, along with enhanced pedestrian and bicycle facilities for demonstration purposes. Based on public feedback and City Staff recommendations, these improvements may be removed, modified, or made permanent subject to available funds.
The total cost estimate to complete design and construction for the Project is $376,760. Approval of Resolution No. 2026-001 will partially fund the Project, and the plans and specifications will be prepared with additive alternate bid items. These alternate bid items will allow additional work to be included if more grant funding becomes available.
