LiNC includes the following notable changes:
- Street parking will be eliminated at peak traffic hours on the corridor to make way for municipal buses, which have their own marked lane.
- “Traffic calming” and safety measures that feature new landscaped center medians (or “pedestrian refuges”) will be installed.
- Improved crosswalks, flashing warning lights, new pedestrian lighting, curb-extensions and bulb-outs will be added.
- And 48 new trees will be planted.
A string of mostly five-story mixed-use apartment complexes are in the works; a few have already been approved, with others in the development pipeline.
