Project Description

To enhance pedestrian safety and accessibility, the project would construct new sidewalks along the west side of Ski Hill Drive to fill in gaps in the existing sidewalk and build ADA compliant sidewalk curb ramps at intersections. When completed, the sidewalks on Ski Hill Drive will complete a pedestrian facility loop through the residential area, along Ski Hill Drive, Evans Street, and SR 2.

Existing Condition

Ski Hill Drive bisects the northern half of Leavenworth and serves as a primary north-south arterial route. It connects the CBD to the majority of the residential areas in the City, and the Ski Hill recreation area located north of the City. The road is very popular with residents and tourists that use it to walk and bike through the City, and to access trails leading out into the County. The street also serves as an overflow parking location when downtown public parking lots are full. In addition, school children use existing sidewalks in the area to walk to school. There is some existing sidewalk along the west side of the roadway, but there are several gaps. In addition, many of the intersections either have non-compliant curb ramps or no curb ramps at all. The sidewalk is not accessible for all users and gaps in the sidewalk cause pedestrians to have to walk on the shoulders of the street with no physical barriers from traffic.
