Please utilize an interactive center to assist the City in determining the best future neighborhood connections for both Phase I and Phase II!
ConstraintsOpportunities | ConstraintsHigh Levels of Public Support• Desire to improve utility & perceived safety of canal
banks
Neighborhood Connections• Eight connections included in Phase I • Potential future projects include: • Phoenix Indian Medical Center Fitness Trail at 14th Street
& Glenrosa Ave• Pocket park at 31st St & McDowell Road• Safe Routes to School project between Creighton
Elementary School and Oak St• Mountain Park Health Center connection• Pueblo Grande Museum connection
Central Avenue Signal Modifications• Requires modification to Light Rail guide-way
Union Pacific Railroad Crossing • New crossing permit needed for tracks at Pueblo
Grande Museum
• Requires closing two existing crossings for one new crossing permit
Environmental Considerations• Many archeological & historic sites located along canal
requiring archeological monitoring and recovery plans.
