College & Walnut corridor study

[Prospect Hill]

Hi, PHNA residents, 

The city is considering making College and Walnut each two-way, rather than the current one-way pair where Walnut runs north and College runs south. The city is accepting comments until December 1. Please see the link below. There are diagrams and descriptions of the proposed changes. 

• Alternative 1: One-Way Configuration
  • This alternative maintains the current one-way traffic pattern while adding a new protected urban trail along both streets, improved pedestrian crossings, and intersection and midblock safety improvements. It also adds opportunities for environmental, streetscape, and accessibility improvements.
• Alternative 2: Two-Way Configuration

  • This alternative converts both streets to two-way traffic, introduces a center turn lane in key segments, and includes intersection and signal upgrades to manage flow and improve safety for vulnerable roadway users. A new urban trail would run alongside Walnut St., connecting neighborhoods and downtown.
