City Plans to Fix Problematic 19th Street/Avenue N Intersection

As part of the construction of the WCMUC (West-Central Multi-Use Trail) the city has come up with a design to fix the rail/road crossing at the confluence of the CP tracks, Avenue N and 19th Street. This unsafe crossing situation has led to complaints from both CP and area residents. This is the situation now:

The city will submit the following design to CP and it will hopefully go before council in 2024 for funding, with a cost estimate a bit under $500k.

A great plan with benefits for both the immediate community and users of the larger WCMUC path. We’ve also added the full project discussion below.
