Improvements are coming to Pace Street from 9th Avenue to 17th Avenue. This project will repair and widen the asphalt, make it easier to walk and bicycle and upgrade the street’s drainage system.
The project will add buffered bike lanes in both directions to give cyclists more space and improve safety. We will also install two rectangular rapid-flashing beacons (RRFBs) to help people cross the street more safely.
To improve drainage, we will upgrade the existing stormwater system. This may include adding new curb and gutter on the west side of Pace Street and making other drainage improvements needed.

The Pace Street Improvements Project is in the final design phase and will go to bid in early 2026 with construction expected to begin in spring 2026.
During Construction:Â
-
- At least one lane of traffic in each direction will be maintained at all times.
- Pedestrian and bike detours may be in place at times on Pace Street, detours will be signed and easy to follow.
- Construction will occur between Monday – Friday from 7 am – 6 pm. There may be times when work is required on the weekends due to weather and other factors.
This project aims to fix the roadway, widen the street and improve the drainage system along Pace Street from 9th Avenue to 17th Avenue. These upgrades will help traffic move more smoothly and make the street safer for everyone. Completing this work now costs less than waiting until the road becomes more damaged and requires reconstruction.
