POINT? HOW DID WE GET TO THIS

Guiding Principles of the Design

• New Northern Gateway to City • Mobility & safety • Differentiation between pedestrians and bicyclists • A sustainable streetscape • An arts district identity • Support for phased implementation GUIDING PRINCIPLES

Design Overview

• Define the elements to be constructed within the City Right of Way (sidewalks, bike facility, parking, street lights, drainage, etc.) – ~ $26M budget • Integrate RiNo GID funded enhancements (trees/landscaping, pedestrian/accent lighting, enhanced paving) into a cohesive streetscape – ~ $3M budget DES IGN GOALS

Y FUNDED ENHANCEMENTS POTENTIAL LOCALL

2.6 miles of new sidewalk 2.6 miles of raised, separated cycle track MOBILITY – CYCLE TRACK & S IDEWALK

TOPS S MOBILITY - INNOVATIVE BUS

3 new signals (29 th , 33 rd , 35 th ) New pedestrian ‐ controlled signal at 33 rd Pilot project adding two ‐ stage bike turn boxes at intersections MOBILITY - INNOVATIVE INTERS ECTIONS

80+ new on ‐ street parking spaces MOBILITY - P ARKING

Added 28,000 square feet of water quality treatment (currently there is none) One of first projects to implement City’s Ultra ‐ Urban water quality standards S US TAINABILITY – WATER QUALITY

Collaborated with local property owners to create GID and BID to fund streetscape amenities Without District Support PLACEMAKING –AMENITIES

Planting 400+ trees, reducing the heat island effect Using native plant materials to emulate character of corridor & reduce irrigation requirements S US TAINABILITY – REDUCING HEAT IS LAND

100+ new benches 300+ LED pedestrian & landscape lights Undergrounding utilities PLACEMAKING – BENCHES & LED LIGHTING

Collaborated with RiNo Arts District to provide 30 new wayfinding and identity signs PLACEMAKING –ART DIS TRICT IDENTITY
