    Scranton, PA
    Other

    The City of Scranton scheduled a public meeting for April 4, 2024, at 5:30 p.m. at Lackawanna College's Peoples Security Bank Theater to discuss downtown streetscaping projects funded by federal ARPA dollars. The proposed improvements follow a walkability study completed in June 2023 by urban designer Jeff Speck and Nelson\Nygaard, which cost $239,800 in ARPA funds. Scranton's current ARPA spending plan allocates more than $7.7 million for streetscape projects on Adams Avenue, Biden Street, Linden Street, North Washington Avenue, and Wyoming Avenue. The walkability study recommended changes including restoring two-way traffic on North Washington, Adams, Monroe, Biden, and Linden; converting 23 of 30 downtown traffic lights to all-way stop signs; replacing push-button walk signs with concurrent signals; narrowing driving lanes; and rebuilding Lackawanna Avenue for pedestrian safety. Scranton received $68.7 million total in ARPA funds to address COVID-19 impacts.
