From Grandview Drive to Northgate Avenue
This study will focus on developing recommendations to address safety, operations, and multimodal needs on U.S. Route 340 (P Buckley Moss Drive/Rosser Avenue) between Grandview Drive and Northgate Avenue. This corridor includes several crash hot spots, the most notable of which is the intersection of Rosser Avenue/Lew Dewitt Boulevard/Windigrove Drive. The corridor also has barriers to use for people biking and walking to destinations such as nearby activity centers and the transit connections used for travel throughout the city and beyond, each of which will be considered. The study is intended to assess mid-term to long-term challenges and opportunities and will identify project recommendations that can be advanced for federal, state, and local funding opportunities.
The Phase 1 survey regarding current transportation needs on U.S. Route 340 (P Buckley Moss Drive/Rosser Avenue) between Grandview Drive and Northgate Avenue was completed in May 2025. The study team will use the input obtained from the public to better focus on solutions and develop alternatives to address the identified needs.
