Throughout the corridor, you may notice temporary asphalt in the middle of the roadway and near crosswalks. The asphalt will be demolished and new curb ramps and a new roadway median will be installed in its place. Once these upgrades are installed, people driving should practice caution when navigating around these new extended curb bulbs along the corridor. The bulbs are painted yellow to make them easier to identify.
