«• <br />ow <br />The provisions of far -side bus turnouts at major intersections, as recommended, <br />would enhance through travel by removing stopped buses from the through traffic <br />lane. <br />Pedestrian circulation would be significantly improved and made safer, through <br />installation of ten -foot wide sidewalks along both sides of the street (currently, <br />sidewalks do not exist uniformly throughout the corridor and are missing in some <br />spots). Continuous sidewalks will afro improve pedestrian access to and from the <br />bus stops along Bristol Street. The proposed project would also include an <br />upgraded street lighting system, which will Improve lighting levels and evening <br />visibility for froth pedestrians and motorists. <br />5. Removal of old, unsafe structures and non - conforming uses. <br />Acquisition of needed right -of -way and widening of the roadway and major <br />intersections would require the removal of several old structures, including fences, <br />walls and buildings, which may be unsafe at present due to their age and , <br />deteriorated conditions. The removal of these structures, along with other sound <br />structures which contain or support non - conforming uses, would enhance the <br />potential for implementations of the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance <br />objectives for this area. <br />Adverse Impacts that would accompany construction and completion of the proposed <br />street improvements include the following: <br />A- Air Quality ,! <br />Short-term increases in local emissions would occur during construction of the <br />proposed improvements, which could be considered a nuisance by local residents, <br />pedestrians, shoppers, etc. who are present during construction operations. Such <br />emissions would involve exhaust from construction equipment, fugitive dust from <br />grading activities and vehicular exhaust from motor vehicles of the construction <br />crew and the vehicles used to transport the construction equipment. <br />Lang -term increases in emissions of nitrogen dioxides would occur because of <br />improved traffic slow and higher operating speeds. <br />W. <br />B. Noise <br />Short-term increases in local noise levels would occur during construction of the <br />proposed improvements, which could be perceived as nuisance noise by residents, <br />pedestrians, shoppers, etc, during construction operations. <br />A widened roadway will result in a wider dispersion of traffic noise along the <br />roadway, potentially resulting in noise level increases in excess of federal and <br />
