RE: NOTICE OF INTENT-FOR 2006
Dear Ms. Fisher:
The City of Ashland respectfully submits the attached Notice of Intent to apply for
ODOT's Transportation Enhancement Program for years. 2009 - 2011. The
Laurel Street Sidewalk Project meets the first approved TE activity: provision of
facilities for pedestrians and bicyclists. The project will be designed in accordance
with the Oregon Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan and conform to all federal and state
requirements. The City is asking for $200,000 in TE funding and will match
$25,000 or 12.5% in staff services and local funds.
The proposed project is located on North laurel Street from Hersey Street to
Randy Street and consists of sidewalks, sidewalk ramps and other pedestrian
friendly amenities. There are several missing sidewalk connections along this
important collector and local street network to reach Helman Elementary School.
This project would also serve as a pedestrian connection to the highly popular Dog
Park, the Greenway Bicycle Trail System and the downtown core. All construction
work is located within the existing public right-of-way therefore property acquisition
is not necessary.
The proposed laurel Street Sidewalk project meets the 2005-2007 City Council
goal to improve pedestrian and traffic safety and is supported by the City's Traffic
Safety Commission. The project .is also listed in the current Capital Improvement
Projects for implementation within the TE Program timeline.
