Central Ave West Corridor Study Interactive Map
Use the interactive map to share:
Safety Issues: Think broadly. You can use this category to identify areas that feel unsafe and/or are challenging to access or cross as a pedestrian or cyclist or are characterized by unsafe driving/high speeds.
Land use improvements: We want to hear your ideas for improving this section of Central Avenue! Think about where new development should go and what types you would like to see – apartments, mixed-use, retail, commercial? What areas could become new centers of activity for nearby neighborhoods?
Destinations: Where are you going when traveling this corridor? Stopping within the study area or elsewhere?
Note: The adjacent Albany Street corridor is being considered as a potential cycling alternative. Do you have thoughts regarding this option?
