About the North Avenue Corridor Improvements Project

In 2022, Athens-Clarke County (ACCGov) was awarded a federal grant to “reimagine” the North Avenue corridor. Since the award, ACCGov has engaged the public and stakeholders and teamed with designers to develop the North Avenue Corridor Improvements Project.

As part of project development, ACCGov conducted a public meeting on October 22, 2024 providing the public an opportunity to provide feedback and complete a survey. The feedback period closed on November 1, 2024. All comments are now part of the project's official record and have been provided to the Mayor and Commission.

ACCGov staff has prepared a single response letter, addressing all questions and comments received during the comment period.

Questions about the project can be directed to Rani Katreeb, rani.katreeb@accgov.com.

Project Overview

The North Avenue Corridor Improvements Project proposes multimodal improvements along North Avenue in Athens-Clarke County beginning just south of North Avenue’s intersection with Willow Street and ending just north of North Avenue’s intersection with Freeman Drive.

These improvements include the construction of bicycle and pedestrian facilities. The total project length will be approximately 1.2 miles.

Staff presented information about the project at a Work Session on October 8, 2024 to the Mayor and Commission.

Mayor and Commission voted on 11/6/2024 to approve the Project Concept and to authorize staff to advance the project into Preliminary Engineering Phase, subject to a CDO, as shown on pages 9 and 10 of the M&C Meeting Minutes.
