The Wilson Boulevard Streetscape Improvements project team will begin work for the project no sooner than August 24, starting with tree protections and street markings in anticipation of digging and intensive work.

What to Expect During Construction

During construction, crews will close lanes and sidewalks, relocate bus stops, and install detours. Sign up for ART Alerts to stay informed about bus service updates. Read signs carefully and proceed with caution through the project area.

More information about disruptions will be shared on the project page.

About the Project

The project has three main goals, which we cover in this video.

• Bury utilities: Remove utility poles from sidewalks, bury and upgrade utilities below the road, and upgrade signals and streetlights
• Sidewalk improvements: Widen sidewalks within the project limits to match improvements already completed west of North Kenmore Street 
• Intersection improvements: Remove the slip lane on Wilson Boulevard approaching 10th Street North, and on 10th Street North turning left onto Wilson Boulevard to improve predictability and reduce confusion between drivers and pedestrians.
