11. Create neighborhood gateway on southern end of study area (consistent with wayfinding) New Gas Station at Brookpark and Rocky River Drive Will include gateway landscaping – signage to West Park, Kamm’s Corners Cleveland Parkway Denotes separation from airport uses (i.e., rental car facilities) Extend wayfinding to Brookpark Preliminary Recommendations

20. Benefits of 3-lane Roadway SAFETY: 29% Reduction in crashes, improved visibility for left-turning cars & crossing pedestrians, reduced speeding LIVABILITY: driving lanes are further away from sidewalk, median could be landscaped where turn lanes aren’t needed OPERATIONS: separating left turns reduces delay, side street through movements are easier

21. Benefits of 3-lane Roadway FHWA: 1 of 9 Proven Safety Countermeasures

22. Benefits of 3-lane Roadway ODOT is supportive of 3-lane roads that operate at LOS D or better 3-lane roadway supports recommendations from various City of Cleveland planning efforts: Bikeways Plan (2014) Street Typologies Plan (2013) Complete and Green Streets Ordinance (2011)

23. Next Steps Incorporate public comments Finalize recommendations Develop implementation plan and preliminary cost estimates Stakeholder Meeting 3 Draft final report
