Update on bike/ped facilities near new Red Sox stadium

Thanks to BPAC's work with LeeDOT, the bike/ped facilities near the new Red Sox stadium will be enhanced. Below is the latest update from LeeDOT of what is planned at this location:

Daniels Pkwy from Gateway to Chamberlain (by new Red Sox stadium) – bids were opened on 11/17/2010, construction will begin in late Jan. to early Feb. 2011. Anticipated construction end date – Jan/Feb 2012. The project will include expanded paved shoulders (6’) on Daniels Pkwy between Gateway Blvd. and Chamberlin Pkwy, and (new) paved shoulders (4’) on Daniels Pkwy from Chamberlin Pkwy to Treeline Ave. The paved shoulders will be signed and marked as bike lanes. The existing asphalt/concrete bike path along the north side of Daniels Pkwy will see some safety modifications.
