Cesar Chavez Redesign moving forward

cc1.jpg


Mission Local has a good piece on the Cesar Chavez Redesign:


The first phase, which is likely to start this summer, involves redoing the sewage system to reduce flooding.


Above ground, the second phase will involve planting more trees, using energy-efficient street lights and converting the three lanes of traffic in each direction to two lanes. With concerns over safety, a 14-foot tree-lined median and widened curbs will be paved to decrease the time needed for pedestrians to cross the intersection. Bicyclists will also be able to enjoy the additional street space through permanent bike lanes.


More at Mission Local. It's all part of the Mission Streetscape Plan.
