WU-045 July 30 Meeting for Bike-Pedestrian Ferry Vicinity Improvements

In this 5-minute preview of a July 30th public meeting, BCB's Lyssa Danehy deHart speaks about ferry issues for cyclists and pedestrians with two knowledgeable sources.

This podcast episode features Chris Hammer, who is the Engineer Manager with the Public Works Department of the City of Bainbridge Island, and Don Willott, who is a long-time active citizen-volunteer member of the City's Non-Motorized Transportation Advisory Committee.

They discuss the upcoming public meeting addressing the proposed project for roadway, bike lane, shallow lane, walkway, lighting, landscaping and safety improvements for cyclists and pedestrians near the Ferry terminal on Olympic Drive.

The project is in its design phase, so the City is welcoming interested citizens to provide community input at this early phase of the project.

The City will present conceptual drawings of alternative designs for improvements, and will seek public input prior to developing the final design.
