Complete Streets is a transportation infrastructure approach that designs streets for all users, not just cars. The MobilityWorks 2.0 program continues JTA’s implementation of Complete Streets across the region.

The 8th Street Complete Streets project consists of pedestrian safety, bicycle safety, and aesthetic enhancements along 8th Street from Payne Avenue to Boulevard Street. The planned improvements include the realignment of existing crosswalks, new crosswalks, installation of rectangular rapid flashing beacons, ADA-compliant curb ramps, pedestrian signalization, additional signage, and pavement markings for a bike lane.

Design is underway and construction is expected to begin in 2024. The 8th Street Complete Streets project was included in FY 24 procurement.
