This could have big implications for biking & walking in the area.

Winnebago St. Roadway Redesign Concepts
7:00 - 9:00 pm, Tuesday, May 9, 2006
Trinity Lutheran Church, 1902 Winnebago St.
(Please use entrance on Atwood Ave. nearest First St.)
I am writing to invite you to a meeting to
discuss concepts for redesigning segments of
Winnebago St. from the Yahara River to Sixth
Street, including the following:
· Permitting east-bound traffic to enter Winnebago at the Yahara River
("Two-way Winnebago")
· Creating a mid-block crosswalk in the 1900 Block
· Installing additional crosswalks at
Schenks Corners and reclaiming some pavement for
safer pedestrian crossings
· Narrowing Winnebago St. from 48' to 40' from Second St. to Fifth St.
· Installing median islands at the Winnebago/Fourth St. intersection
· Ending Division St. at
LaFollette/creating a ped/bike path across the
rail line
· "Squaring" the intersection of LaFollette and Winnebago
City Engineering and Traffic Engineering staff
will present these concepts, which they have
drawn up. Some of these concepts may be
controversial, and all will require further
discussion. The intent is to find out what
changes neighbors, both residential and
commercial, want to see in the Winnebago
St./Schenks Corners street design. We will also
look at preliminary designs for Union Corners'
phase one roadways. Please contact me with
questions and concerns:
Ald. Judy Olson, District Six

ps: I am trying to get the designs on the City
website or find some other way to get the
concepts out to you ahead of time. I'll send
more information when I have it.
