Kercheval Streetscape Project

Construction Update!

As DPW was able to complete most of the streetscape's concrete and road work, we will be out again in the spring to put the finishing touches on the project including, landscaping, pavement markings and signage. Over the winter we will continue to work on lighting and traffic signal work.

Please feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions or feedback,

Best,

Why Kercheval?

The project stems from the Islandview Greater Villages Neighborhood Strategy and Implementation Plan which the community identified Kercheval between E Grand Blvd and Parker as a neighborhood main retail corridor where the community would like to see an increase pedestrian safety, beautifying the street, slowing down the traffic and speeding cars along with improving ways people can get through other modes of transportation.
