With this project, DOT seeks to enhance the streetscape and improve the pedestrian environment while reorganizing traffic flows to improve safety. Crosswalks will be shortened, new pedestrian space will be created, curb usage will be assessed to maximize efficiency, and connections to the waterfront will be enhanced.
