Over 80 volunteers of all ages came out in support of the project to help paint the roadway during the 4-day installation held December 8-11, 2021 in the City of Deerfield Beach. The primary components of the quick-build project are intersection improvements, wayfinding and informational signage, traffic calming features, crosswalks with decorative surface treatments and upgrading the existing bike lanes to protected bike lanes. The project is reversible and adjustable according to the needs of the community. Pedestrian and bicyclist counts are being counted during this time to evaluate the use of the corridor, as well as speed data. |
