Section 5: Intersection Improvements

Information

The Safe Streets for All Project will improve several of the intersections along 122nd Avenue

NE Stanton St and 122nd Avenue

Proposed Improvements

New full traffic signal with left turn lane
All corners upgrades
ADA compliant zebra striped crosswalks
Bumpouts (or curb extensions)
Protected bike lanes approaching intersection

How we used the community feedback: Added a signal to NE Stanton Street

During the planning process and engagement work for other 122nd Avenue projects, we heard that it's stressful to turn left off of NE Stanton Street, and also for people to walk across the street. Additionally, given the crash history, we are proposing to add a new full signal to this location to improve safety and help reduce speeding.
