Fowler Avenue Connection
The Fowler Avenue Connection Project will connect Fowler Avenue from Oak Street to Huffine Lane. The pre-design phase began in January 2021 and focused on understanding existing conditions along the corridor, including environmental and traffic analysis, gathering input from the community on design elements, and estimating potential costs.
By August of 2022, the project team provided a final Pre-Design Report and conducted a work session on the next steps for the project with the Transportation Advisory Board and the City Commission. After hearing a summary of community input, traffic and environmental analyses, City Commission directed staff to move into the design phase of the project with the following conditions:
- One travel lane in each direction
- Left turn lanes as needed
- Traffic signal intersection control at Babcock
- Roundabout intersection control at Durston
- Wide shared-use path on at least one side
- Utilization of flexible design criteria to preserve existing tree canopy
All of the input from focus groups, walk audits, open houses and the maps, stories, and survey tools on this page have been included in the pre-design report or the engagement summaries found in the documents section on the right side of this page.
As the project moves into the design phase, the project team will continue to keep you informed throughout this next phase and let you know about upcoming opportunities to provide your input.
