SUMMARY:“Reimagining Sixth Avenue W” - Presentation & Open House
DESCRIPTION:“Reimagining Sixth Avenue W” to Reconnect Downtown Mobility Network
Formal Presentation & Open House
Monday, October 6, 7 p.m. – 8 p.m.
Formal presentation to begin at 7:15 p.m.
City Hall - Conference Room 104 (201 4 Street SE, Rochester)
About the Project
Downtown Rochester is entering a new era of transformation. The City of Rochester is taking a step to reimagine Sixth Avenue W and reconnect the downtown mobility network.
With the permanent closure of Third and Fourth Avenue SW, the City is looking to relocate north-south bike lanes, and introduce new pedestrian, bicycle and intersection improvements. Sixth Avenue W, running from Civic Center Drive to Fourth Street SW, will be redesigned as a key connection between the new Mayo Clinic campus and neighborhoods to the west.
“Reimagining Sixth Avenue W is about creating a corridor that works for everyone,” said Steve Sampson Brown, Director of Construction, City of Rochester. “By prioritizing safety, connectivity and user experience, we’re building a downtown that is vibrant, accessible and welcoming to people of all ages and abilities.”
Key Project Goals
-
Reconnect the downtown mobility network to ensure safe and efficient travel for all modes.
-
Design pedestrian-first streets with safer crossings and comfortable public spaces.
-
Introduce a new All Ages and Abilities (AAA) bikeway to strengthen active transportation connections.
-
Integrate design character and streetscape improvements that reflect a vibrant downtown.
