Pmpowl for <br />DTLA ARTS DISTRICT PEDESTRIAN & CYCLIST SAFETY (ATP 3), Los Angeles, California <br />The project area is currently characterized by a <br />complex street system of very long blocks with few <br />safe crossing locations, complicated intersections, <br />and very limited bike facilities that create mobility <br />challenges for residents, workers and visitors to the <br />district. When constructed, the DTLA Arts District <br />Pedestrian and Cyclist Safety project will provide <br />pedestrian and cyclist improvements including new <br />cycle tracks, bike lanes, bike routes, new and widened <br />sidewalks with curb extensions, new traffic -controlled <br />intersections, a new shared street connecting to <br />the new Sixth Street Viaduct Arts Plaza, as well as <br />green street elements. Tetra Tech designed the <br />improvement and will provide construction support <br />services for the project with estimated construction <br />cost of $15 million. <br />CULVER BOULEVARD REALIGNMENT, Culver city, California <br />At the heart of the Tetra Tech design project is a <br />newly constructed 58-foot wide raised landscape <br />median, complete with buffered bicycle and <br />pedestrian paths. Street improvements include the <br />reconfiguration of existing traffic lanes, new and <br />reconstructed landscape medians, traffic signal <br />additions and modifications, bus stops, signal <br />interconnects, new lighting, utility adjustments, <br />relocation of existing catch basins, and the design <br />of a parking lane with innovative buffer treatment <br />to separate it from the eastbound high-speed travel <br />lanes on Culver Boulevard. Active transportation <br />components include both bike paths and pedestrian <br />paths, ADA compliant curb extensions and ramps, <br />improved crosswalks, and path lighting to improve <br />pedestrian safety and mobility through the corridor. <br />The roadway project is combined with a regional <br />stormwater capture project, also being designed by <br />Tetra Tech. The project will incorporate an infiltration <br />gallery under the newly reconstructed raised median, <br />and will also include retention basins to reuse <br />captured stormwater runoff and urban runoff to <br />irrigate local landscape medians within the project <br />area. The overall landscape design of this project <br />will include green elements such as bioswales along <br />the raised median and adjacent roadways to further <br />promote stormwater pollution prevention education. <br />CITY OF SANTA ANA 29!
