Missouri High Priority Bike/Ped/ADA Projects

Add/improve Pedestrian and bike treatments on Stadium Blvd. signalized intersections in Columbia (05COL1115)

Status:

City: Columbia.    Route: Stadium Blvd. State Hwy 740    Location: All crossings on the entire stretch within city limits

Type: Sidewalk, Curb cuts/ramps, Intersection improvements, Crosswalks

Description:
Some crossings on Stadium have had pedestrian and bike treatments added in recent years. I would like to see all crossings have safe pedestrian crossings with pedestrian lights, striping etc. Also, sidewalks all along Stadium would be wonderful.

Importance:
I am particularly interested in the stretch between Broadway and I-70 where there are a lot of businesses, restaurants and a school. This is a dense area of businesses where it would make sense to walk or ride a bike between various destinations. Doing so currently seems (is) dangerous. Stadium is like a huge wall through Columbia separating neighborhoods and businesses. Making it bike, pedestrian and wheelchair friendly would make a huge difference in promoting active and healthier lifestyles and making our whole town a friendlier place.

Obstacles:
It seems to me that this should be an easy project.
