OPEN HOUSE: 34TH STREET SOUTH LANE REPURPOSING
April 4, 2019 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE
APRIL 4, 6 PM
ST PETERSBURG COLLEGE
ALLSTATE CENTER, DESOTO ROOM
3200 34TH STREET SOUTH
You are invited to attend a public meeting and open house to learn about and provide comments on proposed road design concepts to re-purpose the outside lanes of 34th Street South from 22nd Avenue South to 54th Avenue South. The concepts call for the outside lanes to be re-purposed for bus use and business access. This would be implemented as part of a resurfacing project scheduled for construction in 2022.
The resurfacing project would also include the construction of six- to 10-foot sidewalks on both sides of the road and added, enhanced pedestrian crosswalks. The purpose of these improvements is to improve the safety of the road for pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit users as well as motorists while maintaining adequate traffic flow and preserving access to businesses. The corridor traverses the center of the Skyway Marina District and this project follows the goals of the Skyway Marina District Plan to create a safe, walkable and economically vibrant community.
There will be a short presentation about the project at 6:15 PM followed by the opportunity to view materials related to the project and ask questions. View the event flier.
