Hi PBPAC - I noticed in the City Council agenda for 2/2 that the City and DOT will be working on a paving project on outer Congress St. between Stevens and Johnson Rd.
Does anyone know if this project will include any modifications to the lanes or restriping to improve bike ped functionality? Or at minimum, and road diet features? As far as I am aware there have not been any public meetings on this project.
Order 121-25/26 Approving an Agreement Between the Maine Department of
Transportation and Portland RE: Improvements to Route 9, Route 9 West, and
Route 22 - Sponsored by Danielle P. West, City Manager
City Council is being asked to approve the attached Utility Receivable Agreement, which
would allow MaineDOT to move ahead with its plans to improve and pave Congress
Street from Stevens Avenue to Johnson Road, Johnson Road from Congress to South
Portland Town Line, and Skyway Drive from Congress Street to Johnson Road, a total of
approximately 2.68 miles in Portland. The agreement obligates the City to pay a portion
of the project costs.
