This project includes street changes to make it safer for students to walk to school by calming traffic at six intersections in the Garrison Trotter neighborhood:

  • Walnut Ave at Crawford St and Holworthy St
  • Walnut Ave at Cobden St
  • Walnut Ave at Westminster St
  • Walnut Ave at Ruthven St
  • Abbotsford St and Crawford St (Wolf Square)
  • Humboldt Ave at Munroe St

Currently, the Walnut Ave corridor experiences excessive travel speeds, and there is a need to improve shorten the pedestrian crossings  at Abbottsford St and Crawford St, and Humboldt Ave at Munroe St/Humboldt Court. The construction of raised intersections along Walnut Ave, a curb extension at Abbottsford and Crawford streets, and a median refuge island for the pedestrian crossings across Humboldt Ave at Munroe St and at Humboldt Court are proposed to improve safety.
