Welcome to the Sherman Avenue NW Streetscape project website!

The purpose of this project is to establish a balance that is safe for all users by improving pedestrian safety, decreasing the number of travel lanes, adding tree boxes in the center median and on the sidewalks; widening of sidewalks and upgrading of handicapped ramps; replacing street lights and traffic signals, and providing wider lanes to accommodate bicyclists.
