The streetcar will have dedicated lanes on 1st Ave so it can run reliably every 5 minutes at peak times. To allow space for the dedicated lanes – while also balancing other modes like walking, biking, deliveries, and through-traffic – most on-street parking along the route will be removed.
The project team has been working closely with businesses and residential buildings to replace load zones 1-for-1 within a block of their existing locations.
To ensure new load zones are ready to use prior to construction, the new load zones will be in place in mid- to late September on side streets off 1st Ave.
