A map of the East End Streets Study. It shows a boundary around Connecticut Ave, Stratford Ave, and it's subsidiary streets.

The Study will analyze data such as vehicle speed, traffic volumes, queue length/timing gaps, lane usage, sight distance, ROW utilization, access driveways, transit stops, pedestrian crossing times, and accident rates. The current and future operations of the one-way couplet will also be analyzed in this study.

The project will include:

  • Potential mitigation or improvements for all modes of transportation, intersection and roadway re-alignment and layout.
  • Pedestrian crossings/ramps/sidewalks, midblock crossings, road diet, accident reduction.
