Contra Costa County is set to receive nearly $30 million in federal funding to make roads safer for pedestrians.
“L street is the main corridor for all of these neighborhoods including Sycamore, so if we start there creating a safe environment by reducing speeds, and making it more pedestrian friendly, bicycle friendly, it will trickle down into other communities,” said Mayor Lamar Thorpe.The city was recently awarded $13 million from the Contra Costa Transportation Authority to make improvements along L Street.
“Twenty percent of fatalities are happening on our roadways, so these project are really focused on really improving safety and multi-mobile safety for our most vulnerable road users,” said Haile.“Again we have kids walking around here, something has to be addressed,” said Saaquoi.
