Boulevard Becomes Pedestrian Friendly

July 8th, 2009 | posted by Peter

5...4...3...2...1... FLASHY STOP HAND. City engineers are working throughout the week on installing new crosswalks with countdown clocks on them. The new timers will prevent runners and pedestrians from becoming stranded in Boulevard's wide median due to a poorly timed street crossing.

The new crosswalks are appearing on the northern end of Boulevard and the installation team seems to be progressing south with the new crossing signals.

Crews have also been spotted applying a shiny coat of green paint to the antique traffic poles that adorn the Boulevard.

UPDATE July 10 2:30 PM - WRIC 8 follows up on this story with a video report.
