Cook Road Mode Preservation, St Joseph (01STJ1030)
Status:
City: St. Joseph. Route: I-29 Location: Cook Road Bridge over I-29
Type: Sidewalk, Bicycle Lane
Description:
The Cook Road bridge is slated for deck replacement in the near future. This particular corridor is slated by the City of St. Joseph as a special type of road, or a boulevard typical section. It will incorporate bike lanes, a center landscaped median, and 8' sidewalks on both sides. When the bridge deck is replaced, it needs to be consistent with this new section.
Importance:
The project is good because it will eliminate existing safety issues in the near term and coordinate with local jurisdictions for future improvements. Bike lanes will be the first in the metro area.
