This project made the following changes:​

  • Realigned the Lake Dr and Glenwood Ave intersection to make it a T-intersection to shorten the pedestrian crossing distance and help slow turning traffic
  • Added a new mid-block crossing near the Hub Lot, just east of the Post Office
  • Extended the curb in front of the Post Office to shorten the pedestrian crossing distance, improve pedestrian visibility at the new mid-block crossing and at the Post Office driveways, provide a larger area for the existing Rapid bus stop, better define parking spaces, and slow traffic speeds
  • Improved stormwater drainage on Lake Dr where water ponded
  • Modified existing curbing to improve snow removal
  • Removed parking on the south side of the street
  • Added bicycle lanes to both sides of the street, one in each direction
  • Removed the existing road surface and paved one or more layers of asphalt
  • Upgraded sidewalks and crossing ramps to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act
  • Replaced some driveway approaches and sidewalks
  • Installed green infrastructure such as street trees and infiltration basins to retain and soak stormwater into the ground to filter pollutants and reduce runoff entering natural bodies of water
