The City of Vancouver Transportation Services will present information regarding safety improvements planned for 39th St, from Lincoln Ave. to P St. An open house is set for Wednesday, Aug. 19, 6 to 7:30 p.m. at Lincoln Elementary School (School Commons), 4200 Daniels St.
The City applied for and received a $450,000 grant from the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Highways and Local Programs to fund pedestrian and traffic safety improvements along 39th St. This grant will be included with $139,000 that was previously awarded to the Lincoln Neighborhood Association through a Neighborhood Traffic Safety REET grant and $30,000 from WSDOT. That is a total of $619,000 for enhancements along 39th St.
The proposed improvements include updating existing signs, re-striping the roadway, adding bike lanes, removing some parking and installing permanently-mounted radar speed signs. The project will also construct new curb ramps, enhance the existing pedestrian crossing near Leverich Park and install rumble strips between I-5 and P St.
The public is encouraged to attend this public meeting to learn more about the project, view full design plans, ask questions of the project team and provide feedback. There is no formal presentation planned; drop by anytime between 6 and 7:30 p.m.
