$3.1M Dana Avenue transformation through Evanston underway

By Newsroom

August 3, 2010

Dana Avenue through Evanston is in the midst of a transformation that includes streetscaping and on- and off-ramp improvements at the Interstate-71 interchange. Ramp improvements are currently underway and are expected to be complete this month, while the streetscaping projects are expected to begin this fall.The Dana Avenue improvements have been made possible through more than $1.7 million in contributions from Neyer Properties, who developed Keystone Parke, and a $1.4 million Ohio Job Ready Sites (JRS) grant. The JRS grant was awarded to the City of Cincinnati because of the grant's ability to compliment Keystone Parke and an emerging commercial development node."Positive attributes are that it [Keystone Parke] leverages a small amount of state funds to create a smart office complex of over 460,000 square feet," said Sheena Metzger, administrator for the Ohio JRS program. "The project has excellent visibility from the interstate, and all of the buildings on site are going to be LEED-certified at least to the Silver level."Trend Construction is expected to complete Dana Avenue's streetscaping projects by spring 2011. Improvements will include new sidewalks, crosswalk lights, and street trees in an attempt to make the roadway more pedestrian-friendly. A middle turn lane will also be added along Dana Avenue (map) where needed, with a landscaped boulevard design included where turn lanes are deemed unnecessary."Keystone pushed the idea forward, but these improvements were really needed by the whole community," explained Jeff Chamot, Senior Development Project Manager, Neyer Properties." He adds, "The light poles are not the only thing about this project that is green. Like the light poles, all signage is lit with LED and fluorescent bulbs, landscaping is native and drought-tolerant, and low-flow drip irrigation in the planting beds will be tied into a moisture sensor to ensure unnecessary water usage is minimized."Writer: Randy A.

Transit authority looking to overhaul Cincinnati’s bus system, improve access

As local transit officials struggle to do more with less, leaders at the Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority (SORTA) are examining how they might be able to restructure the Metro bus system to better serve Cincinnatians. The changes may mean that the decades old hub-and-spoke model may finally be on its way out of style. "The hub-and-spoke model in Cincinnati is broken," exclaimed Colin Groth, Government Relations Director, Metro. "Right now, if you're trying to go from say Mt. Washington to Westwood, you have to go Downtown first. This is a problem." The problem is especially pronounced in Cincinnati due to its neighborhood orientation which lends itself to more hub-to-hub trips, rather than spokes leading to a singular hub. According to transportation experts, the solution seems to lie in an option that moves people from neighborhood hub to neighborhood hub. The beginning of such a neighborhood hub bus system in Cincinnati will more than likely start by adding a second hub in Uptown, that will also serve as a facility for the Cincinnati Streetcar, followed by neighborhood hubs in Northside and Walnut Hills. "We have worked with neighborhoods and Parsons Brinckerhoff to figure out where people wanted to see Metro grow, and better access to Uptown and improved crosstown service were at the top of the list," Groth said. Officials say that the goal is to eventually develop a collection of Neighborhood Transit Hubs that will serve as transfer points in the restructured system. The incremental will mean better service for riders within the city as they move from neighborhood to neighborhood, but it will also mean improved service for those traveling in traditional commuter patterns into Downtown and Uptown as buses will be able to travel in a more direct fashion. What transit officials need now is money. The Uptown Neighborhood Transit Hub alone is estimated to cost approximately $6.2 million, but Metro officials are currently working with the Uptown Consortium and the Cincinnati Streetcar Development Partners to come up with the best plan for implementation. Design and engineering work is already underway and is expected to be complete within the next year, and construction will begin as funds are available. In June, Metro received $11.77 million from the OKI Regional Council of Governments through their allocations of two federal transportation programs. Some of this money will go towards the replacement of aging buses, but another chunk of the money will go toward this Neighborhood Transit Hub vision. "The money is to develop the capital infrastructure to support both existing service, as well as, creating the building blocks for a more robust system down the road," Groth explained. "With more neighborhood hubs you can really facilitate center-to-center and neighborhood-to-neighborhood transportation...that's when you really begin to change the system."Writer: Randy A.

Cincinnati Metro is asking riders to share their stories about using public transportation in a contest where two community-chosen winners will receive a free one-year buss pass.The "Tell Us Your Story" contest is Cincinnati's part in the national "Public Transportation Takes Us There" campaign of the American Public Transportation Association. Cincinnati's contest borrows from the national campaign by seeking out public stories related to four key areas: economy and jobs, environment, energy independence and quality of life. Metro is looking for concise, personal stories from riders who can explain how public transportation has helped them improve in those four areas. The contest is accepting written and video stories, eight of which will receive a free one-month bus pass. The top two in each medium will receive a free one-year bus pass."We're looking for riders to tell us how metro has helped them get to a job, or cut back on their environmental impact," said Metro Public Affairs Manager Jill Isaacs Dunne. "We're hoping that by the public telling their stories, Metro can tell a story of what it means for people to have public transportation in Cincinnati."Written entries should be limited to 150 words; video entries should be a minute or so. There are several ways to submit them. Metro will capture video at events in Cincinnati this summer, starting with Taste of Cincinnati May 27 on Fountain Square. You can enter your own written and video through Metro's web site. The contest is from May 27 to July 31. Metro will chose winners of the one-month free bus pass and the public will vote for the Grand Prize winners on the metro web site from Aug. 3 to 31.Writer: Feoshia Henderson Source Metro Public Affairs Manager Jill Isaacs DunneYou can follow Feoshia on twitter @feoshiasoapbox http://www.twitter.com/feoshiasoapbox

Cincinnati celebrates May's 'Bike Month' with style - and substance. A comprehensive bike plan, new bike lanes, 'sharrows', designated bike 'parking' spaces and even a bike corral in Northside are just a handful of the successes local bike advocates and city officials have achieved in the past year. Soapbox's Jeremy Mosher says that their efforts are not only making Cincinnati more bike friendly, but changing the way we'll all get around in the future - hint: two wheels are better than four.
