Roosevelt Boulevard: Route for Change report

Project Overview

Over the course of five years and many rounds of public meetings and stakeholder conversations, the Office of Transportation, Infrastructure, and Sustainability and the Department of Streets crafted a vision for Roosevelt Boulevard. The report outlines:

  • Immediate traffic safety and public transit improvements for the near term
  • Analysis of roadway and public transit improvements that will change the look and feel of the Boulevard by 2040

More information on design and construction can be found on the PennDOT District 6 project page.
