Transportation Program Build and Enhance Transit Systems
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.

Targeted Performance Measures

  • Miles of Pedestrian and Bicycle Routes Improved or Constructed
  • Miles of Roads Decommissioned or Retrofitted
  • Miles of Utility Lines Buried Underground

Threshold Categories

  • Air Quality
  • Recreation
  • Scenic Resources
  • Water Quality
