Parametrix partnered with the city to prepare the winning grant application and will provide final design for the $20 million safety improvement project. Design work is expected to continue through 2025, with construction anticipated to commence in 2026 and be completed in 2027.
“This grant will enable us to construct critical safety improvements on one of Alameda’s most vulnerable roadways,” stated City Manager Jennifer Ott.
The three-mile Lincoln/Marshall/Pacific Corridor Improvement Project will provide a range of safety enhancements, including a road diet, a roundabout at Lincoln Avenue/Fifth Street/Marshall Way, pedestrian and bicycle signals, modernized traffic signals, improved crosswalks and bus stops, school frontage improvements, stormwater gardens, street trees, disabled and loading zone parking, and improved lighting.
