Comments
- Staff · March 29, 2025Cityworks ID: 552853
- Staff · April 4, 2025The average speed on N. 14th St between Franklin St and Broad St is 21mph. The “sideswipe same direction” type crash where the parking lane is present only had one reported crash in the last 9 years (1.1.16 – 12.31.24) according to DMV records. The speed samples are in general compliance with the 25-mph speed for residential streets. Curb extensions (bump out curves) are capital improvements and are not funded on N. 14th St in the FY26-FY30 City Budget.
