6th Avenue Extension and Redesign Project
6th Avenue Extension - Craig Road to Russell Street
Project Overview
The 6th Avenue segment between Craig Road and South Ketchum Drive (600-feet) is being designed as a boulevard, filling in the missing segment of 6th Avenue. From South Ketchum Drive to Russell Street, 6th Avenue will be reconstructed as a boulevard with roundabouts at Lundstrom and Lawson, infill sidewalk on the north side of 6th Avenue, and an 8-10 foot shared-use path on the south side. This design with applicable elements including ADA ramps and drainage swales will require additional City right of way acquisitions.
What to Expect
This project will begin construction in fall of 2024, have a winter shutdown, and pick up in the spring of 2025. Another City utility project will be constructed along 6th this fall concurrently with our project.
Project Goal
The goal of this project is to improve the overall transportation system, and multimodal usability and safety of 6th Avenue between Craig Road and Russell Street. The project includes extending 6th Avenue to Craig Road, sidewalks to eliminate gaps on the north side, a shared-use path on the south side, median treatments to create a boulevard, and transit stops along the route.
