The Parkside Pedestrian Improvements Project includes a crosswalk with a pedestrian-activated signal, landscaping, roundabouts and restriped bike lanes. The project boundaries are Avenue of the Republic to the north in front of the Please Touch Museum, East and West Montgomery Drives, and Parkside Avenue to the south.
This phase will also include the construction of a crosswalk with a pedestrian-activated signal across S. Concourse Dr. to the Welsh Fountain. The crosswalk connecting Welsh Fountain to the Please Touch Museum will also be improved.
