ACHD has heard that this section of Taft Street needs traffic calming measures and better bicycle and pedestrian connectivity. Based on this feedback ACHD has initiated a study to develop and evaluate alternatives to improve Taft Street for all users. ACHD wants to work collaboratively with the neighborhood to determine the appropriate improvements. We are starting with a blank slate, and want your input on possible solutions.
