Project Start Date

Project Description
Improvements to Nicholas Parkway between Cultural Park Boulevard and Santa Barbara Boulevard included median curbing, new turn lanes and landscaping.

• Median Curbing--All medians were curbed. Curbing provides some safety enhancements, and allows us to place landscaping in the medians.

• Turn Lanes--To improve traffic safety, left turn lanes had been added or improved at all median openings. The left turn lane at SE 4th Avenue is now directional only, therefore vehicles coming out of that street will only be allowed to make a right turn onto Nicholas Parkway.

• Median Landscaping--All medians had been enhanced with landscaping and irrigation.
