about the project
The project involves the development of a Complete and Green Streets Implementation Plan based on the Complete and Green Streets Policy that was adopted by the City in 2016. This Complete & Green Streets Implementation Plan project seeks to:
- access the feasibility of implementing complete and green street principles
- create a safe and continuous network of bicycle and pedestrian-friendly streets
- provide trees and greener streets in context-sensitive designs
- implement projects that advance County and State stormwater management goals where possible
- identify streetscape improvements along selected streets to make them safe for all users of the public right-way.
By implementing these objectives, this project aims to improve safety, connect neighborhoods with community attractions, and enhance the public realm primarily through the construction of sidewalks. Based on the availability of funds, 30% design plans were prepared for five street segments prioritized by the City Council. These are: Edmonston Road (between Old Calvert Road and Bryn Mawr Road), 52nd Avenue (between Huron Street and Narrangansett Parkway), Cherokee Street (between 48th Place and Rhode Island Avenue), Bowdoin Avenue (between Erskine Road and Harvard Road), and St. Andrews Place (between Duke Street and De Pauw Place).
