CHELSEA- TARGETED SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS AND RELATED WORK ON BROADWAY, FROM WILLIAMS STREET TO CITY HALL AVENUE

The project will include corridor wide safety improvements targeted at reducing crashes for pedestrians, bicycles and vehicles. Standard safety countermeasures such as improved signage, lighting, traffic calming streetscape elements, curb extensions, signal upgrades (where applicable) and other countermeasures identified in the Road Safety Audit. In addition, it is expected that the corridor's pavement, sidewalks and bus transit amenities will need to be improved or replaced; however, at this time, not enough baseline data or survey has been gathered to fully assess the condition of those assets. Further evaluation of the pavement treatment and extent of sidewalk reconstruction will be conducted during initial project development. The cross-section elements will be developed during initial project development building on the planning work that has already been conducted by the City of Chelsea.
