South Broadway Multimodal Improvement Project
The City of St. Louis was awarded funding to construct an upgraded bike facility, as well as related road and sidewalk improvements, on approximately 2.1 miles of South Broadway between River City Casino Blvd. and Dover Street.
Project Overview
South Broadway is a minor arterial road and a vital transportation corridor in southeast Saint Louis that supports multiple modes of transportation. Spanning one ward and two neighborhoods, it links residents, workers, and visitors to essential goods, services, and destinations including firehouses, schools, city parks, and local businesses. This project will increase regional greenway and multimodal plan connectivity while fostering a safer and more accessible environment for motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians.
Project Location / Description
This project spans 2.1 miles of South Broadway, extending from Dover Street in the north to River City Casino Boulevard to the south. Currently, South Broadway provides bicycle lanes from Dover Street north to Chouteau Avenue. Dover Street also provides access to the Sister Marie Charles Trail while River City Casino intercepts the southern end of the River Des Peres Greenway. However, along the project corridor, bicycle lanes are shared with motorists, reducing cyclist comfort and limiting bicycle traffic. As a key link in both current and future multimodal initiatives, including the Mississippi River Greenway, this corridor plays a crucial role in enhancing regional connectivity.
Estimated Project Budget: $1,200,000.00 Estimated Completion Date: To Be Determined
