Lincoln Retail Corridors Transportation and Streetscape Plan
The Downtown Lincoln Alliance and City of Lincoln initiated a program of streetscape improvements in downtown Lincoln, focusing on the P Street and 14th Avenue corridors connecting the University of Nebraska campus with the popular Haymarket historic/commercial area. A multidisciplinary team led by Design Workshop was retained to prepare streetscape improvement plans for implementation in 2013. LSC Transportation Consultants, Inc. provided transportation planning/engineering expertise.

• Analyze roadway and intersection configuration options, including Synchro/Simtraffic modeling
• Evaluate impacts of roadway options on parking, truck loading, and special events circulation
• Develop operating and facility plans for a conceptual downtown circulator transit system
• Identify improvements to pedestrian crossings of high-volumes roadways
• Participate in public input sessions and plan adoption presentations
