Project Overview
The Lawrenceville Mobility Enhancement District (MED) is a mechanism to address curbside management issues and parking demand, while also funding mobility improvements in the neighborhood. This tool allows for additional funds generated by dynamic hours and dynamic pricing of paid parking areas to be used for a variety of mobility improvements, including bus shelters, parking enforcement, street trees, and more.
Legislation for the program was passed in late 2023 after months of community engagement and planning. The first phase of implementation began in November 2024 with the start of evening hours of enforcement for existing paid parking areas on Butler Street.
2026 Projects
Lawrenceville United, Lawrenceville Corporation, and the Department of Mobility and Infrastructure selected the following projects for implementation in 2026 using the MED Trust Fund:
- 40th and Davison Improvements
- ADA Curb Ramp Installations
- Crosswalk Upgrades
- MED Parking Hours Signage

Funds can be used for a variety of mobility enhancements that may include infrastructure and public realm programs or programs promoting multi-modal transportation, affordable mobility, and accessibility. Examples may include bus shelters, bump-outs, and street trees.
Each year, a community meeting will be held to solicit community input on proposed spending plans. Additionally, an annual report will be presented to City Council at the end of each year, detailing revenues and expenditures from the trust fund.
As of October 31, 2025, the Mobility Enhancement District has generated $150,000 in net revenue, to be used for mobility improvements in the neighborhood.
