Traffic Management Enhancement Project Phase 8 - North Broadway Signal Interconnection
The North Broadway Traffic Management Enhancement is a federally supported transportation project in Saint Louis, Missouri
Project Overview
North Broadway serves as an important transportation corridor in northeast Saint Louis, Missouri, especially for Transportation Equity Populations (TEP) that face transportation barriers. As a minor arterial road, North Broadway accommodates multiple modes of transportation which connects residents to essential goods, services, and destinations. This corridor links 3 wards and 4 neighborhoods, schools, firehouses, Hickey Park, and Calvary and Bellefontaine Cemeteries. The upgrade of this vital multimodal transport route will directly benefit the community by increasing mobility, safety, and access to pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, and transit users.
Project Location / Description
The 6.8 miles of the project corridor are on North Broadway from Cass Avenue to the south and Riverview Boulevard to the north. There is a significant need to maintain and improve traffic management and safety within the City’s complex transportation network, including the reduction of motorists travel times and vehicle emissions. This project enhances the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) infrastructure to better facilitate traffic incident and congestion management actions undertaken by the Real-Time Transportation Intelligence Center (TIC).
