Two-Way Street Restoration
Current Status: Partially Complete
The reintroduction of two-way travel on our Downtown streets has been a priority in the Downtown master plan for decades. This initiative has been reinforced through subsequent Mobility Plan Updates and transportation projects, with dedicated tax increment funding from the Downtown Investment Authority allocated for implementation. Restoring two-way streets is proven to encourage economic growth, boost property values, and support more efficient use of on-street parking and rideshare services. It also enhances retail visibility and occupancy rates, improves walkability and pedestrian safety, increases sidewalk activity, and elevates residential demand and quality of life. This transformation begins Downtown with Forsyth and Adams Streets, both of which run through the DIA’s targeted dining districts. The first phase, which completed in July 2025, includes two-way conversions, signalization, paving, striping, sidewalk expansion areas and parking kiosks. This work will be immediately followed by a second phase of sidewalk widening, tree planting, and enhanced streetscapes. Status: Phase One Completed
Initial Conversion Completion: July 2, 2025
