| 摘要： | The W. 47th Street/Avenue Complete Street Project was undertaken by the City of Westwood, in cooperation with the Unified Government of Wyandotte County/Kansas City, Kansas, to rehabilitate and enhance the existing 47th Street corridor from Rainbow Boulevard to Mission Road. Based on a 2018 conceptual planning study and building on two master plan documents, the project provides a road diet, reducing the existing four-lane section to three lanes with bike lanes, and adds two RRFB pedestrian crossings, as well as new street- and pedestrian-scale lighting. Median refuges at the RRFB crossings were added based on feedback from a freguent user who is visually impaired. Green pavement marking was used to enhance cyclists' safety at shared bus/bike zones for existing bus stops. The project met all goals identified by the conceptual plan, while balancing tight ROW, existing utilities, and budgetary constraints through an iterative and collaborative process involving all stakeholders. |
