Presently North River Drive is a two lane roadway with narrow shoulders and no curbline. The travel lanes are 12 to 14 feet wide, and the speed limit is 30 miles per hour. The asphalt shoulder width varies from 3 to 5 feet, which can be flooded during inclement weather. North River Drive parallels the north bank of the Spokane River adjacent to Downtown Spokane and Riverfront Park. Access to Riverfront Park, hotels and a medical clinic east of Washington Street on North River Drive promote the need for sidewalk on each side of the street. Continued development of park facilities on the North Bank of the river over the next several years will increase the need for sidewalk on this street.

Project Description
This project would include sidewalk installation on each side of the street. Topography of the roadway will not facilitate separation the full distance. Acquisition of right of way on the south side near Washington Street will be requisite for sidewalk installation. The city proposes installation of an eight foot wide sidewalk on each side with separation where possible on the north side. The project adds curbing and stormwater drain facilities along with the sidewalks.
