DIR-2026-21F45AStaff direction detail
Direct staff to evaluate modifications to Phase I of the Fountain Avenue Streetscape Project that would retain existing parking and omit protected bikeways while incorporating resurfacing and restriping, one travel lane in each direction with a center turn lane, high-visibility crosswalks, painted curb extensions, and traffic calming. The evaluation should address design feasibility, safety, cost, schedule, and grant funding implications.
The Fountain Avenue Streetscape Project evaluation, funded by potential grant and city funds, aims to improve safety and traffic flow by reducing travel lanes and adding high-visibility crosswalks and traffic calming measures. This proposal retains existing parking but omits protected bikeways, impacting residents by potentially altering traffic patterns and enhancing pedestrian safety.
For residents living near Fountain Avenue, this project could mean less traffic congestion and safer pedestrian crossings due to the addition of high-visibility crosswalks and traffic calming measures. However, the omission of protected bikeways may affect cyclists who use this route. The retention of existing parking is beneficial for those who rely on street parking.
