Project Summary

This project will include the following improvements by segment:

3rd St to 7th St: The Alternative 1 was chosen for this section. It will include a sign

removal, additional signs installed to include way-finding, bike lane signs and no parking

signs. Removal of existing striping, the addition of yellow, white and green thermoplastic

and traffic delineators. Lighting improvements will include a conductor, electrical

conduit, pull box, light poles, mast arms, LED heads, and removal and salvage of existing

poles. This section also includes drought tolerant landscape improvements on the south

side and micro-surfacing. This section has been changed from a cycle track to bike lanes

on both sides of the street with 8 feet of parking on the north side unless chicanes can be

installed in this section to alternate street side parking. Install crosswalks and stop bars at

all intersecting cross-streets. Include a turn lane bicycle box at the 3rd Street intersection.

Keep west approaching bike lane on south side, modify hawk crossing and northbound

stop bar to accommodate a new crosswalk on the south side of the intersection to

accommodate eastbound bicycle travel, install green paint on south side adjacent to

intersection on west and east approaches in conflict zones.

7th St Intersection: The Alternative 1 for the intersection was chosen. It will include an

addition of 4 ped push buttons requested on each of the corners of the 7th Street

intersection. There will be a sign removal, sign installations at HAWK for better bike

safety, stamped asphalt across 7th street, removal of existing striping, pavement marking

added and green thermoplastic. Existing HAWK will remain but be modified for bicycle

use with push buttons that the rider does not need to dismount for.

7th St to 10th St: The Alternative 1 was chosen for this section. Improvements include

bike lanes, green paint in conflict zones on south side of street east of 7th Street

mast arms, LED’s, remove and salvage existing poles as well as micro-surfacing,

crosswalks and stop bars at all cross-street intersections. Remove parking on the south

side in this section. The proposed section consists of two 10ft traffic lanes, two 6ft bike

lanes and 8ft parking lanes on the north side. Chicanes will be explored to split off-street

parking between the north and south side of the street.

12th St – 14th St: The Alternative 1 was chosen for this section. Improvements will

include bike lanes, sign removal, sign installation, removal of existing striping, white and

yellow thermoplastic, and pavement markings. Lighting improvements include

conductors, electrical conduit, pull boxes, light poles, mast arms, LED’s, remove and

salvage existing poles and micro-surfacing as well. This section removes the parking on

the south side and installs crosswalks and stop bars at all cross-street intersections. The

proposed section consists of two 10ft traffic lanes, two 6ft bike lanes and 8ft parking

lanes on the north side. Chicanes will be explored to split off-street parking between the

north and south side of the street.

14th St Intersection: The Alternative 1 was chosen from this section. Improvements

apply four-way stop signs and traffic calming speed table at the intersection, ADA ramps,

sign removal, sign installations, stamped asphalt, pavement markings, asphalt concrete

and concrete pavement milling and drainage items impacted by the speed table.

14th St – 15th St: The Alternative 2A was chosen for this section. Improvements will

include bike lanes, asphalt concrete pavement milling, sign removal, sign installation,

stamped asphalt pattern in the middle of Oak street, and pavement markings for shared

use lanes. Lighting improvements will include a conductor, electrical conduit, pull boxes,

illuminated bollards, removal and salvage of existing poles and low maintenance

landscape improvements on both sides of the road. Proposed 14ft of pavement for this

section. Low impact drainage improvements such as bio-swales. Parking will be

restricted on both sides of the road.

15th St – 16th St: The Alternative 2A was chosen for this section. Improvements will

include bike lanes, asphalt concrete pavement milling, ADA ramps, curb, gutter, sign

removal, sign installation, stamped asphalt pattern in the middle of Oak street, and

20th St & Thomas Rd Intersection: The Alternative 1 was chosen for this section. The

N/E and S/E corners will have an RFB, expand the triangle to reduce lanes to one, for the

N/E corner convert to a multi-use path with striping. There will be a reduction of one

free-flow right turn lane, install RFB, may need to coordinate with ADOT. Other

improvements include sign removal, sign installation, white, and yellow thermoplastic,

pavement markings and micro-surfacing. Restripe the existing free right turn on the

southeast corner of the intersection to provide one free right turn lane rather than two.

Thomas Rd to Grand Canal: The Alternative 1 was chosen for this section. Potential

coordination with ADOT may be needed. The section will have two-way multi-use

paths, 10ft cycle track, 3ft buffer and two 16ft traffic lanes, bollards between Greenfield

Rd and the Grand Canal. Coordination will be required with ADOT and the lane width

north of Greenfield Road will be reduced. Other improvements will include sidewalk

removal, ADA ramps, sign removal, stamped asphalt crosswalks, removal of existing

striping, sign installation, white, yellow and green thermoplastic, and pavement markings

along with flexible traffic delineators. Lighting improvements will include a conductor,
