The redesign, presented during a July 10 public meeting, came after plans shown in 2022 stirred anxieties about the use of eminent domain to complete the project. Similar worries prompted outcry from city representatives in response to eminent domain potentially being used on a street-widening project on Washington Boulevard and Pulaski Street. The new plan uses less pavement, has safer bike infrastructure and shorter crosswalks that creates a safer roadway, Buttenwieser said. The bike lanes in the latest plans would be separated from the street and opposite the parked vehicles, according to the plans shown during the July 10 meeting. The project, which also includes rebuilt sidewalks, better lighting and shortened and new crosswalks, is estimated to begin construction in 2026.
