Broadway Pedestrian Crossing Improvements

As part of Fiscal Year 2021-22 budget adoption on June 21, the City Council funded the Broadway (SR12) Pedestrian Safety Project. This project would provide enhanced pedestrian safety improvements at Patten Street, France/Andrieux Streets, Malet Street and at a relocated crosswalk north of Traintown at Clay Street with new curb ramps. The Broadway (SR12) Pedestrian Safety Project was discussed in combination with the Broadway restriping plan that commenced in November 2022. Once the restriping project was completed, the City was able to move forward with the pedestrian crossing improvements. The City received Caltrans approval and an encroachment permit to work in Caltrans right of way and install the RRFBs on December 21^st, 2022. The City’s Public Works department is managing and constructing this project internally and estimates that it will be completed in the Fall of 2023.
