Event: SM Spoke Hosts City Staff on Bergamot Area Connections Plan on Zoom Tonight

Date:

The following is a calendar item from Santa Monica Spoke. RSVP for tonight’s meeting: RSVP@SMSpoke.org

Join Santa Monica Spoke for a meeting tonight at 7 p.m. with city mobility staff to get a presentation on exciting projects in the Bergamot Area that will improve circulation, connections to existing infrastructure, and help create safer streets.

The Bergamot Area First-Last Mile Active Mobility Circulation Improvements projects will connect local neighborhoods to transit facilities, bikeways, schools, parks, employment and recreation opportunities. The projects area is made up of three key corridors that will receive bicycle and pedestrian safety improvements as identified in the City’s Land Use and Circulation Element (LUCE), Bicycle Action Plan (BAP), Bergamot Area Plan, Pedestrian Action Plan and the Local Roadway Safety Plan.

The key corridors are:

  • Olympic Boulevard (north side only) from 26th Street to Stewart Street;
  • 26th Street from Olympic Boulevard to Broadway; and
  • Stewart Street from Colorado Avenue to Kansas Avenue; Colorado Avenue from Stewart Street to Yale Street; and Pennsylvania Avenue from Stewart Street to 26th Street.

The improvements are planned to be implemented in three phases beginning with an Olympic Boulevard sidewalk and finishing with Stewart Street and Pennsylvania Avenue bicycle and pedestrian improvements.
