The City of Spokane is hosting a public open house on Thursday, Jan. 26 from 4-7 p.m. at Knox Presbyterian Church, 806 W. Knox on a project to improve North
Monroe Street between Indiana and Kiernan.
The project includes reconfiguring the street from four lanes to two travel lanes with a center turn lane, from about Shannon
to Cora. It will also will include curb bumpouts at intersections that
reduce pedestrian crossing distances, enhanced crossings at three locations
with flashing yellow beacons, pedestrian lighting, and a climbing lane on the
hill. The current on-street parking will be widened for easier use and
spaces will be added. Sidewalks will be widened.
In addition to the open
house, the City is developing an online feedback tool that describes the
various elements of the project, and then provides a survey for citizens to
fill out. The online tool is expected to be launched about a week prior to the
public meeting. More information on the project is found on the City’s web site.
