Update on Island Crest Way Crosswalk Improvements

The consultant team is finalizing the design of the three crosswalk improvements. The design includes rectangular rapid-flashing beacons (RRFBs) at SE 62nd St and SE 63rd St and a pedestrian signal at the Island Park Elementary driveway. Refer to FAQs on this webpage for RRFB and pedestrian signal descriptions.

Advertisement for construction bids will occur late March with construction anticipated to start in June 2024 after school is out. Most of the construction is planned for completion by the end of August 2024 prior to Island Park Elementary starting the 2024-2025 school year. Signal poles, beacons, and electrical equipment have long lead times and will be installed once they arrive later in the fall/winter. During construction, the existing RRFB at the Island Park Elementary driveway will remain operational until the pedestrian signal is fully up and running.

Stay tuned for progress updates, photos, and more details during construction.
