FUTURE ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS

The physical improvements in this plan are but the first phase of a larger area plan that will radiate out from the depot site eventually extending to the I-215 Freeway to the east, Rialto Avenue to the south, and Mount Vernon Avenue to the west.

Future Site Improvements

  • Existing palm trees identify the area and add to the southwest character of the neighborhood.
  • New trees will be adding lower height semi-evergreen shade landscape environment.
  • A landscaped traffic median will be installed along 2nd Street between Mount Vernon Avenue and K Street.
  • New street lights will be installed, with a design that is consistent with the heyday of the depot.
  • Sidewalk will be added to facilitate pedestrian circulation between the depot, surrounding uses.
  • Historic Depot District entry monuments will be constructed to emphasize the significance of the district.
  • Viaduct Boulevard will be realigned to create a four way intersection with 2nd Street and Giovanola Avenue.
  • The overall roadway width will allow for a wider landscape buffer area between the parking and the adjacent commercial developments.
  • The wider landscape buffer will accommodate meandering sidewalks and a bike path, further increasing the multi-modal uses of the depot.
