Crossing of Hwy 171 at Frisco Greenway Trail in Webb City (07JOP1069)
Status:
City: Joplin/Webb City. Route: Hwy 171 Location: at the Frisco Greenway Trail
Type: Pedestrian/trail crossing and signal
Description:
Provide a pedestrian crossing of Hwy 171.
Importance:
The heavily-used Frisco Greenway Trail extends about 1/2-mile north of 171, but crossing 171 requires users to go 1/2 mile east to a crossing signal that is not on long enough for pedestrians. A pedestrian crossing, if not a separate grade, would make it much easier and safer for cyclists and pedestrians to travel between Joplin and Webb City.
