City Of Kingston issued the following announcement on Apr. 08.
The City of Kingston has issued an RFP to provide landscape design for the greenspace at the newly-configured intersection at Broadway and Prince Street.
The RFP asks for a Landscape Design Plan to enhance the experience for active transportation users of the Broadway and Prince intersection. The plan will serve as a blueprint for creating an attractive, inviting community space at a crucial juncture of the Kingston Greenline.
The Broadway Grand Street Intersection Improvements project realigned and improved the safety at a formerly dangerous intersection. The City redesigned the intersection of Broadway, Grand Street, Prince Street, and Pine Grove Avenue to reduce traveler confusion, crashes, and near-misses. The design integrated with the major $25 million Broadway Streetscape Project, and is the culmination of the new protected bike lane that runs north to the I-587 roundabout. Pedestrians and bicyclists traveling on the Empire State Trail, use this intersection to connect to Prince Street to continue along the trail route. To accommodate the realignment, an abandoned Planet Wings building was demolished, leaving community greenspace.
Due to global supply chain issues, the final poles for the Broadway Grand Street Intersection Improvements project have been delayed, and are currently expected to be delivered and installed this summer. Once the traffic signals are fully installed, they will be programmed to coordinate with the other signals on Broadway.
