The project team will implement proven safety practices to reduce crashes and address safety issues involving pedestrians, bicyclists, people taking transit and drivers. Driving, walking or bicycling along Indian School Road will be safer with changes to increase lighting and visibility, create safer places for people to cross the road, installing new traffic signal technology and other improvements detailed on this page.
