Existing approaches near the intersection will be evaluated to determine if access can be better controlled by eliminating any approaches while not negatively impacting the use of any business. Approaches will also be reduced in size to meet current City standards as appropriate. Sidewalks within the project area will be replaced where they are in poor condition or as needed to improve walkability and pedestrain access near the intersection. A bus shelter will be included in both the eastbound and westbound direction with the exact location coordinated with the City. Lighting will be included along Lincoln Way within the project limits. Pedestrian level lighting is aniticipated from Freemont Street to Elmer Street and roadway level lighting from Elmer Street to Obrien Street. The corridor will be evaluated for landscape improvements including trees and shrubs. The existing vegetation will be evaluated and additional vegetation will be proposed to either replace or supplement the existing trees and landscape. Signage and striping within the project limits will be reviewed and replaced as necessary. The existing traffic signal detection loops will be replaced with a FLIR detection system as well as APS pedestrian push buttons. The improvements will be coordinated with City of South Bend Traffic and Lighting for determination of existing signal equipment and the need for replacement of the signal controller. The condition and location of the existing poles, mast arms, and signal heads will be evaluated and are not anticipated to be replaced unless necessary. Traffic through the intersection is understood to operate at a sufficient level of service and a study or modifications to signal timing is not included in this project.
