The proposed project STP-0004-00(461) would consist of the addition of a 10-foot, or to the face of the buildings, pedestrian way with paver accents, pedestrian lighting with breakaway design, landscaping, and street furniture on both sides of Ralph David Abernathy Boulevard from Joseph Lowery Boulevard to Lee Street. Improvements at the intersection of Ralph David Abernathy with Lee Street and Joseph Lowery Boulevard would include the restriping of the existing crosswalks, the widening of the turning radii to accommodate tracks and buses where there is available right-of-way, the upgrading of the existing signal system with LED signal heads, and the addition of pedestrian friendly sidewalks, crosswalks and ramps. Gateway features to identify the West End Historic District Area are proposed at these intersections. The proposed project STP-0004-00(463) would consist of overall pedestrian access improvements that would include the addition and/or renovation of sidewalks with paver accents, the restriping and/or addition of crosswalks, the addition of pedestrian lighting with breakaway design, landscaping, street furniture, and uniform street name signage along Joseph Lowery Boulevard. The proposed project would be divided into three phases. Phase one would be from Sells Avenue to West End Avenue. Phase two would be between West End Avenue and Norcross Street. Phase three would be from Norcross Street to I-20.
