Proposition A | Streets
$132,200,000
Proposition A would authorize bond funding for street and alley capital improvement projects throughout the city. Projects included under this proposition address roadway and alley infrastructure needs at various locations.
If approved, bond funds would be used for capital work such as roadway reconstruction, localized pavement replacement, traffic signal infrastructure, school zone flasher infrastructure, compliance with current ADA standards, and alley reconstruction. Projects may also include replacement of water, wastewater and drainage infrastructure under the roads and alleys. Project locations and scopes are based on infrastructure assessments and City Council discussions and may be implemented as needed.

Street & Alley Projects
Collector Streets: Collector streets generally serve to connect residential areas to larger roadways. They typically carry traffic between local streets and arterial streets and may serve a mix of residential and non-residential land uses.
- Waterview Drive (Arapaho to Campbell), Melrose (Wisteria to Provincetown)
Neighborhood Collectors: Neighborhood collectors are a subset of collector streets that primarily serve residential neighborhoods. They provide connections between local residential streets and nearby collector or arterial streets and generally carry lower traffic volumes than other collector streets.
- Mimosa Dr (Melrose to Arapaho), S Weatherred Dr (Downing to Belt Line)
Alleys: Alleys are secondary access ways, typically located behind properties. They are commonly used for utility access, service vehicles, and access to garages or parking areas and are separate from the public street network.
- 13 segments
Residential Streets: Residential streets are local streets that primarily provide access to homes. These streets are generally lower-volume roadways designed to serve neighborhood traffic.
- Martha Manor, Maple Street, Apollo Rd, Greenhaven Dr, Hidden Dr, Little Creek Dr, Ridgehaven Pl, Canyon Creek Plz, Deep Valley Dr, Tiffany Trl
Concrete Replacement: Concrete replacement refers to the removal and replacement of existing concrete roadway or pavement sections that have deteriorated over time. This work typically involves replacing specific panels or segments of concrete pavement rather than reconstructing the entire street, and may include associated base material and joint work as needed.
Traffic Signal and School Zone Infrastructure
Projects under Proposition A may also include improvements to traffic signal and school zone infrastructure, including:
- Reconstruction and replacement of traffic signal infrastructure, including signal equipment, foundations, and related roadway elements, as needed.
- Reconstruction and replacement of school zone flasher infrastructure, including poles, foundations, flashers, signs, and associated electrical and structural components, as needed.
Traffic Signal Rebuilds: Traffic signal rebuilds involve the replacement of existing traffic signal equipment that has reached the end of its service life. This work may include replacement of signal poles, mast arms, foundations, signal heads, controllers, wiring, and associated electrical and structural components, as needed.
- Abrams / Buckingham, Arapaho / International, Audelia / N. Buckingham, Belt Line / Bowser, Belt Line / Grove, Belt Line / St. Johns, Buckingham / Sherman, Centennial / Bowser, Centennial / Grove, Collins / Greenville, Glenville / Greenville, Jupiter / Lookout, Jupiter/ North Cliffe, Plano / Greenville
New Traffic Signals: New traffic signals involve the construction and installation of traffic signal infrastructure at locations where no traffic signal currently exists. This work may include installation of signal poles, mast arms, signal heads, controllers, foundations, and associated electrical and structural components, as needed.
- Renner / Sharp, Belt Line / Weatherred
School Zone Flasher and Accessibility Infrastructure Projects: These projects involve reconstruction and replacement of existing school zone flasher infrastructure with the goal of deploying speed feedback signs at all locations with school zone flashers. Work may include replacement of poles, foundations, flashers, signs, radar-based speed display devices, and associated electrical and structural components. Additionally, projects will focus on reconstruction of pedestrian infrastructure elements at or near signalized intersections to address Americans with Disabilities Act accessibility considerations at these intersections, as needed.
Active Transportation Plan – Owens Trail and Street Crossing Projects: Projects identified in relation to the Active Transportation Plan may include capital improvements along Owens Trail as well as construction of pedestrian and bicycle street crossing infrastructure at certain intersections. These projects focus on trail facilities and crossing infrastructure and may include associated site and structural elements, as needed.
