Bergamot First and Last Mile Improvements

The Bergamot Area First-Last Mile Improvements project will connect local neighborhoods to transit facilities, bikeways, schools, parks, and employment opportunities. The project area is made up of three key corridors that will receive bicycle and pedestrian safety improvements as identified in the City's Land Use and Circulation Element, Bicycle Action Plan, Bergamot Area Plan, Pedestrian Action Plan and the Local Roadway Safety Plan. The key corridors are:

  • 26th Street from Olympic Boulevard to Broadway; and
