Recommendation : Install curb extensions corners on east leg. Restrict parking in advance of crosswalk. Issue : Sidewalks on James Ave lack sufficient buffer from roadway. Recommendation : Reconstruct sidewalks to provide buffer or narrow roadway to add buffer.
Sidewalks
Recommendation Implementation Table Table 121 below summarizes the full list of corridor and i ntersection recommendations to reduce crashes for all modes and enhance the safety along the Sharondale Street corridor. Each recommendation has an estimated applicable CMF and timeframe that reflects whether the recommendation is an ideal Short - (1 -3 years), Mid- (3 -5 years), or Long- (5+ years) term project, based on feasibility, crash reduction benefit and cost. Costs are based on TxDOT Bid Averages in fall of 2024 and unit prices provided by the City of Fort Worth. Construction, engineering, and contingency are included in these costs. All assumptions are detailed in the Toolkit.
