The project will also include upgrades to select existing pedestrian crossings, new crosswalks and curb ramps, and the installation of concrete ADA landing pads at bus stops. The successful consultant will be responsible for completing the project within a maximum of 9 months, with a construction period expected to last 6 months. • The project will reallocate existing curb-to-curb space to add a two-way center turn lane and separated bike lanes on both sides of the road. • The project will include upgrades to select existing pedestrian crossings, new crosswalks and curb ramps, and the installation of concrete ADA landing pads at bus stops. • The successful consultant will be responsible for completing the project within a maximum of 9 months, with a construction period expected to last 6 months. • The project is partially funded by ODOT Safe Routes to School program, with construction funds available during State Fiscal Year 2028. • The City has a participation goal of 10% for Cleveland Small Businesses (CSB) on this project.
