The purpose of this project is to install bike and pedestrian amenities along Barber Street between Prince Avenue and North Chase Street/Dairy Pak Road. The proposed amenities will create safer accommodations for cyclists, pedestrians, and motorists in this quickly growing area of Athens. This project will serve to provide safe bike and pedestrian access to adjacent neighborhoods and businesses along Barber Street as well as to public transit facilities.
This project is broken up into four different segments, as follows:
- From North Chase Street to Loop 10 Underpass
- From Loop 10 Underpass to Oneta Street
- From Oneta Street to Boulevard
- From Boulevard to Prince Avenue
The public is invited to view the proposed alternatives and complete an on-line survey: STORY MAP. All comments will be presented to the Mayor and Commission. The survey will be live until May 19th.
NOTE: A timeframe for construction of this project has not yet been determined.
