About the Project
The Ada County Highway District (ACHD) is beginning to develop and evaluate alternatives to improve the Southwest Boise and South Meridian Neighborhoods. This project will identify improvements to create a safe, comfortable, and convenient bicycle and pedestrian network from Locust Grove Road to Entertainment Avenue. The proposed network will include:
- Easy Jet Drive
- Hollandale Street
- K-Bar-T Drive
- Targee Street
- Neighborhood roads and connections
Hollandale-Targee Neighborhood Improvement Route
Project Goals:
The purpose of this project is to recommend improvements along local connections from Locust Grove Road to Entertainment Avenue and identify the following:
- Safe and inviting bicycle facilities that provide a low-stress alternative to surrounding major roadways
- Necessary wayfinding signage along neighborhood streets to help guide cyclists to major area destinations
- Enhancements at intersection crossings to make it easier for bicycles to travel along the corridor
- How to emphasize the presence of Hollandale-Targee bikeway as a bicycle-friendly corridor
