Existing ConditionsIn 2017, the City of Cle Elum initiated a Downtown Revitalization effort to improve safety for all modes of transportation along First Street (SR 903), create a walkable streetscape consistent with its Complete Streets Ordinance, and increase economic growth and vitality. The current conditions of the south side of First Street, between Pennsylvania Avenue and Harris Avenue include deteriorating and non-ADA compliant pedestrian ramps, damaged and settling sidewalk, varying wattage street lights, inconsistent streetscape amenities, and minimal landscaping. First Street was the original state highway through Cle Elum prior to construction of Interstate 90, and the roadway widths have remained unchanged. The current corridor roadway section includes 17-foot-wide travel lanes in each direction, a 17-foot two-way left turn lane and 13-foot paved parking lanes on both sides of the street. This geometry creates a dangerous and uninviting pedestrian corridor that is vehicle-centric. |
