The Urban Transportation Commission's recent vote supports the transformation of Austin’s Congress Avenue into a pedestrian-friendly corridor, reducing vehicular traffic significantly.
Laura Dierenfield stated, 'If we can take this sort of surgical approach to each block, get in, get out and move on, that is how phase one would go.'
The $130 million Congress Avenue Urban Design Initiative focuses on enhancing bike lanes and public spaces, with a phased approach to minimize disruption during construction.
According to Dierenfield, the plan will relocate approximately 94 parking spaces, making accommodations to ensure compliance with federal standards for accessible parking.
