Project Description
The City has been awarded a grant to construct a pedestrian refuge island on Stanford Avenue where Clarks Run Trail and Henson Trail currently meet. This project will provide a safe and effective crossing for trail users such as pedestrians and cyclists. The Federal Highway Administration lists Pedestrian Refuge Islands as one of the their Proven Safety Countermeasures with a 56% reduction in pedestrian crashes. See below for a map of the trails and the location of the new crossing. Construction is anticipated to begin in late 2022.
