Work will begin on July 19th on the intersection of Skinker Boulevard and Forest Park Parkway to implement safety improvements. The project plan includes:
• Improvements to ADA accessibility at the corners of the intersection
• Adjustments in signal operations to reduce conflicts and allow more time for pedestrians to cross
• New pedestrian ADA compliant cross walk buttons and audio signals
• Modifications to make crosswalks highly visible
• Separate crosswalks for bicycles and pedestrians similar to the approach implemented at the Skinker and Lindell and Skinker and Forsyth intersections.
• Installation of stainless steel bollards at the corners to enhance awareness for drivers and pedestrians.
