FAQs
Why is parking being removed?
Some areas currently being used for parking are within public right-of-way and were not formally designated as on-street parking. To improve safety, drainage, and pedestrian access within the existing road right-of-way, the reconstructed corridor will not accommodate on-street parking west of Gallatin Avenue.
Will replacement parking be provided?
The City and project team will evaluate whether limited parking opportunities exist on nearby side streets or private property. However, replacement parking is not guaranteed.
Will I still have access to my driveway?
Yes. Access to homes will be maintained during and after construction. Some driveways may require adjustments to meet updated roadway grades, maximum driveway widths, and ADA requirements.
Are sidewalks being added on both sides of the street?
Sidewalk improvements are planned on both sides of the street to improve pedestrian connectivity and safety. Final configurations will be confirmed as design progresses.
What is happening at Triangle Park?
Triangle Park will remain a community space. The project is proposing that stormwater improvements can be integrated into the park area in a way that maintains it as a usable neighborhood amenity. Public feedback is being solicited to determine the character and type of amenities that will be provided within the park. Any proposed changes will be shared publicly before decisions are made.
Will there be street lighting?
Lighting is anticipated at intersections and pedestrian crossings, potentially using solar-powered fixtures where feasible. No corridor-wide wired lighting is currently planned.
Will utilities be upgraded?
Yes. The water main will be upsized from 8” to 10” to support long-term system needs, and the sanitary sewer main will be replaced. Stormwater improvements will also be made to meet upcoming regulatory requirements.
What should I expect during construction?
Residents can expect temporary traffic disruptions and construction activity during the 2027 season. Access to homes will be maintained, and the City will provide advance communication before construction begins.
How can I share feedback?
You can submit comments at a public open house event, attend public meetings, or request a one-on-one conversation with the project team.
