Possible projects.

 

SS4A survey.

 

FAIRHOPE AVENUE  CORRIDOR

The city council authorized an application for a $9 million 'Safe Streets For All' federal grant to implement safety improvements recommended by last years SS4A survey.

Fairhope Avenue from the bay to Normandy Avenue (Walmart store) was selected to be the first for improvements to safety for all road users, based on input from the study: vehicular, bicycles, and pedestrians. 

Project details are still to be determined.

Grant sought.

Closing the Magnolia approach will move all that traffic to Fels, where traffic is already heavy and speeding frequent.

Indeed a mess. They have packed retail all around that corridor. This all should have been addressed before the growth. Virtually every north/south and east/west corridor needs a safety grant.

It is a shame that local cities cannot do anything without federal tax dollars.

Love the Expert Consultant baffle gab:
Increasing conspicuity
Proving tactile and auditory feedback
Markings providing visual cues
Curb extensions that are calming
And using “smart channels” to reduce collisions.
Proves they are worth every dollar we paid.
