The project includes the design and construction administration services for the Downtown Safety, Access and Mobility (Downtown SAM) project. The project will construct a multi-modal transportation network on three corridors in Missoula’s downtown core. Front and Main Streets will be restored to two-way operations with intersection safety improvements and protected nonmotorized facilities. Higgins Avenue will be reconfigured from four lanes to three, allowing dedicated left-turn lanes, protected bike lanes, intersection improvements, enhanced transit stops, wide sidewalks, and ADA upgrades. The Riverfront Trail will also be widened to commuter path standards and universally accessible connections will be provided between the trail and downtown, including an ADA-compliant ramp between Beartracks Bridge and Caras Park.
