Project Details

This project will repave the road and create improved connections for pedestrians and bicyclists. It will also build multi-use paths along King Road that connects to the recently constructed multi-use path on Linwood Avenue. This project includes funding from the Safe Access for Everyone (SAFE) program and the Street Surface Maintenance Program.

Proposed improvements:

  • Build a multi-use path on both sides of King Road.
  • Repave King Road between 43rd and Linwood Avenues.
  • Update curb ramps at each intersection to current ADA standards.
  • Remove a duplicate water mainline pipe on King Road between 52nd Avenue and Stanley Avenue that is no longer in use.
