PEDESTRIAN IMPROVEMENT PROJECT

STREET RECONSTRUCTION
The City will be reconstructing several streets in the North Loop along with pedestrian spot improvements at about a dozen additional intersections. Public Works staff will be engaging with the community and business owners this summer and fall to gather input and to incorporate this feedback into a recommended design.
