Mobility Corridor - Transit Enhancements Arlington Expressway Corridor

Description

The corridors program was intended to strike a balance between all the functions of a street putting people and quality of place first with the fundamental recognition that street can play a major role in improving public health and community livability. In order to achieve these outcomes, corridor improvements considered how pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists and transit users serve as partners in mobility, each contributing to a community’s quality of life.

Transit Enhancements included improvements to existing bus stops within a quarter-mile of 14 high-frequency transit corridors. Improvements focused on ADA accessibility and improved amenities, including concrete pads, shelters, benches, trash receptacles, and immediate sidewalk connectivity.
