Transportation Program Build and Enhance Trail Networks
The project seeks to rehabilitate Stateline Ave to provide safer pedestrian and bike access, lake access, and improved stormwater infrastructure. Informal dirt parking on shoulders and lack of sidewalk creates conflicts with pedestrians. Informal dirt parking also generates sediment that runs off directly to the lake. The project looks to replace existing failing pipe with a new stormwater system that includes treatment while simultaneously addressing the unsecured shoulders. Constructing pedestrian and bike enhancements for the major tourist area is supported by The Tourist Core Area Plan. The project will be designed to connect to Park Ave, Lakeshore Blvd, and other regional connections.
