Purpose and need
Improve safety and access on Millbrook's main transit street, where narrow sidewalks and wide crossings contributed to pedestrian crashes near the Transit Center.
Project overview
Station Avenue connects the Millbrook Transit Center, the Community Center, and the downtown business district. Before reconstruction, the street had narrow sidewalks, no bicycle facilities, and four unsignalized crossings with a history of pedestrian crashes.
Completed improvements
- 0.9 miles of roadway reconstruction with a road diet from four lanes to two lanes and a center turn lane
- Two-way separated bike lane connecting to the Millbrook Creek Trail
- Two bus bulbs serving Ridge Transit Routes 4 and 17
- Four new high-visibility crossings, including one pedestrian hybrid beacon
- Street trees, pedestrian lighting, and green stormwater planters
Project closeout
Final acceptance was approved in November 2025. The closeout report, including before-and-after traffic counts and a one-year crash review schedule, is available below.
Project updates
Project complete
The Board accepted the project as complete. A one-year post-construction safety review will be presented to the Technical Advisory Committee in late 2026.
Station Avenue fully reopened
All lanes, sidewalks, and the separated bike lane are open. Final landscaping will be completed in spring 2026 under the plant establishment period.
Public involvement
Design workshops
Two workshops and a business owner meeting shaped the final cross-section and parking changes.
