The proposed project includes improvements at five schools in the city of Decatur, Dakalb County, Georgia. The project includes realignment of the driveway at Glenwood Academy, removing the turning radius from the crosswalk and creating a buffer for students to safely cross E. Ponce de Leon (Area 1). Additionally, the existing utility pole island located at Sycamore Place and Commerce Drive will be removed and the intersection will be upgraded to a four-way, traffic signal controlled crossing, with updated striping for crosswalks, along with ADA approved ramps (Area 2). The project also includes installation of bicycle racks at five schools (Claremont Elementary, Glenwood Academy, Renfroe Middle School, Oakhurst Elementary, and Winona Park Elementary) to encourage wider bicycle use by students. All work will be within existing right-of-way or within existing school property.
