Overview
The goal of these safety improvements is to calm traffic, improve connectivity to Northside’s Perry North neighborhoods, improve access to Riverview Park, and establish multi-modal infrastructure along Mairdale Ave and East St.
The project includes:
- pedestrian crossing improvements with improved sightlines
- new bike lanes on some portions of Perrysville Ave
- shared-lane markings (also known as “sharrows”) on other portions of Perrysville Ave
- other improvements designed to encourage reasonable travel speeds for motor vehicles and improve comfort for pedestrians and multi-modal traffic
This project is being done in conjunction with the 2022 PennDOT resurfacing project along US-19.
