Project purpose
Continued growth in the City Center area requires additional traffic signals to support pedestrian and vehicle safety. The project will enhance traffic flow and provide safer crossings for pedestrians.
Project description
The original project designed and constructed a traffic signal at eastbound 87th Street Parkway and Penrose Lane and completed final design for seven additional intersections along 87th Street Parkway from Scarborough Street to Winchester Street. All the planned signals have since been installed except for the eastbound and westbound signals at 87th Street Parkway and Scarborough Street.
The project will design the remaining signals in 2025 and install them in 2026. It will also construct sidewalks, landscaping, and seating east of Scarborough between the eastbound and westbound lanes of 87th Street, along with a new bus stop and shelter along southbound Scarborough.
Current status
February 2026: Project is currently under design. Construction anticipated to begin this summer.
