Project Location

The project brings connectivity between major activity and transportation centers through construction of long segments of missing sidewalks, ADA compliant curb ramps, and crosswalk enhancements. There is also a lack of regional bicycle connectivity between San Gabriel Valley cities, with many bicycle facilities dropping at city boundaries. The project proposes to expand alternative modes of travel by increasing existing bicycle transportation network and enhancing pedestrian facilities. These measures will increase connectivity between homes, jobs, public transit, schools, and recreational resources for a variety of road users in unincorporated South San Gabriel, and the Cities of Monterey Park, Montebello and Rosemead.
