17 Kennedy Boulevard Summary of Recommendations Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Improvements Upgrade street lighting where needed. Provide a pedestrian crossing with raised median and RRFB control near Arawana Avenue. Provide high emphasis crosswalks and Yield to Pedestrians (R1-15) signs at all signalized intersections. At Willow Avenue, provide pedestrian features for the east/west pedestrian crossings. Install a new traffic signal at Rome Avenue with pedestrian crossing features. Access Management Safety Improvements to Reduce Conflicts (Westshore Himes 17 Median Openings) Close 5 existing median openings. Convert 3 existing full median openings to directional median openings. Lengthen left-turn lanes at 8 locations. Improvement Benefits Safer conditions for pedestrians and bicycles at signalized intersections (with high emphasis pavement markings and signs), Rome Avenue (with new traffic signal) and near Arawana Avenue (with new pedestrian crossing). Reduced right angle and left turn crashes along the corridor as a result fewer median openings and greater distance between median openings. Reduced rear-end and sideswipe crashes along the corridor as a result of longer storage areas in left turn lanes. Improved traffic flow conditions as a result of reduced conflicts and greater spacing between median opening intersections.
