The diagram shows proposals to transform Foster Road between SE 84th and 85th Avenue
into a tree-lined avenue that is safer for pedestrians and cyclists.
First of all, the planners propose to widen the sidewalk on both sides of the road and add
bicycle lanes. This will mean reducing the number of lanes for cars and other vehicles. A
pedestrian crossing will also be installed at the lower end of the street, near the gas station.
This crossing will include an island in the middle where people can wait in safety.
In addition to the safety measures above, planners also want to plant trees along both sides
of the road. These trees will transform the appearance of the neighbourhood as well as
provide vital extra shade for pedestrians.
To summarise, under these proposals, the needs of local residents will be better served by
making Foster Road a safer and more pleasant environment.
