This aspirational community enhancement project focuses on the River Market, Columbus Park, Route 9, and Independence Avenue. The goal is for residents and visitors to experience a more livable, safe, and connected community that encompasses a more intuitive multimodal transportation system to include bicycles, pedestrians, transit, and cars.
The image above provides an aerial view of the study area, which spans approximately from 1st Street on the north to Admiral Boulevard on the south. The intersections that will be considered for at-grade crossings (i.e., bringing the Route 9 to street level) include 3rd Street, 5th Street, Missouri Avenue, Independence Avenue, and 6th Street.
