Road Diet Success in Glendale!

Glendale City Council approved a proposed road diet test case for Honolulu Ave. in north Glendale/Montrose at their regular meeting last Tuesday night. Following a staff presentation that offered seven different street options for a pilot road diet, Walk Bike Glendale and other community members spoke in favor of a road diet in general, and advocated for Honolulu Ave. specifically. City staff will now move forward on design of the road diet which will include buffered bike lanes that will go from the western entrance of the Montrose Shopping Park to Ramsdell Ave. (or as far west as the City’s budget will allow). Once installed, the City will study the corridor for 12 months and then decide if they will make the road diet permanent. This project is viewed as a test case for potential road diet locations in the future. Community outreach for the approved project is expected in the coming months and you can get involved by contacting Walk Bike Glendale.
