Transportation Planning: Current Efforts

Connecting Howe Avenue

Graphic of the Connecting Howe Avenue logo open_in_full

Project overview

Howe Avenue between Fair Oaks Blvd and the Power Inn light rail station south of Folsom Blvd is a critical corridor serving and connecting residents, communities, Sacramento State, students, and businesses. However, it is one of the top 10 corridors in Sacramento with the highest number of transportation related severe injuries and fatalities.

The City of Sacramento was awarded a competitive planning grant to develop a data driven, community supported plan for a future Howe Avenue that will improve safety and mobility on the corridor.

Having a Council adopted plan ensures the City is eligible for competitive grant funding for any next phases such as Preliminary Engineering Design, Environmental Clearance, Final Design and Construction.

See the updated project schedule below, as well as ways to be engaged in the effort.
