DESCRIPTION
AND BENEFITS:
The project includes pedestrian improvements
at seven intersections along Cleveland Avenue: Camden Avenue, E. 19th Avenue,
Kenmore Road, Republic Avenue, Lakeview Avenue, Agler Road, and Lehner Road.
Improvements consist of the installation of enhanced crosswalk markings, the
installation of Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB’s) or Pedestrian
Hybrid Beacons (PHB’s) at each intersection and installation of new
ADA-compliant curb ramps. Minimal pavement resurfacing is required where
enhanced crosswalks are being installed and signage/striping will be updated to
accommodate these improvements.
