This project proposes to transform Kahle Drive into a complete street by improving drainage, adding sidewalks, bike lanes, crosswalks, a safe intersection, and undergrounding overhead utilities. This 0.5 collector road provides key linkages to the existing Stateline to Stateline bike trail, trails throughout Rabe Meadow, and a Douglas County community center. The current condition of the road is highly degraded, unsafe, and a detriment to water quality and the adjacent public lands.
