  • Easier and safer travel for cyclists from residential areas to the rest of campus by creating new 6-foot bike lanes on both sides of 6th Street
  • Pedestrian safety and mobility will be improved, as there will be a new sidewalk created on the south side of 6th Street and new pedestrian lighting installed;
  • Campus standard pedestrian light poles will be added along the south side of the street
  • Enhanced streetscape along 6th Street
