Alternative A - Existing curb lines and roadway width maintained plus pedestrian enhancements - renovate and retrofit.
“All About Pedestrians”
Existing
Alternative B - Replace one travel lane w/ buffered bike lane each on side plus pedestrian enhancements - minimize Sight-of-Xay 308
acquisition.
“Boulevard”
Alternative C - Existing travel lanes maintained plus shared bike/ped path - minimize SJHIUPGXBZ 308
acquisition on south side of Prospect Road.

PUBLIC INPUT ON THE PROSPECT CORRIDOR DESIGN
Preliminary design options for Prospect Road and Lake Street were presented at
two community events in September 2014, as well as an online survey in October
2014. The charts below summarize the input collected from those who participated
in the events and/or completed the online survey.
