Explanation

§                     The purpose of the presentation is to brief City Council on the recommendations from the Parkwood and The Plaza corridor study. 

§                     In January 2016, City Council referred the Parkwood Avenue and The Plaza corridor study to the Transportation and Planning Committee (TAP) to address bicycling and pedestrian safety issues.

§                     Over the last year, the Charlotte Department of Transportation worked with the community and the TAP Committee to assess the corridor and identify corridor modifications that would improve bicycle and pedestrian safety issues.

§                     Staff will present the findings from the Parkwood Avenue and The Plaza corridor study and identify next steps.

§                     In addition, staff will provide a brief status update regarding the South Boulevard, South Tryon, and West Boulevard corridor studies which are currently underway.
