Lombardi Street Improvements – Final Design Now Posted

Following feedback from neighborhood residents through the spring survey, the Town has finalized the design for the Lombardi Street improvement project. The final layout preserves on-street parking in areas adjacent to homes and introduces safety features to support bicyclists, pedestrians, and park users.

Design Summary:

• On-street parking will remain unchanged in sections of Lombardi Street that run alongside residential homes (From Allen Ave to the marked crosswalk North of Kempton Court).

• Bike lanes will be installed where space and conditions allow. (From the Jay Road roundabout to Allen Ave and from the marked crosswalk North of Kempton Court to Kenosha Road).

• Sharrows (shared lane markings for bikes and cars) will be used in narrower sections to maintain parking (From Allen Ave to the marked crosswalk North of Kempton Court).

• View the [design map] to see where each treatment will be applied:

Park Crosswalk:

A raised crosswalk will be installed at the park to slow vehicles and improve safety without creating a hazard for cyclists. Parking near the crosswalk will be restricted and marked with pavement striping and bollards to keep sightlines clear.

North & South Crosswalks:

Speed cushions will be added to promote slower traffic at the two crosswalks north and south of the park. As with the central crossing, nearby parking restrictions will be added to improve visibility for drivers and pedestrians.
