This year we have a project from the City of Seattle. The students have been asked to prepare a conceptual design for the Green Lake Way North Bicycle Facility Project in the Green Lake neighborhood of Seattle. The conceptual design should address and consider all modes of operation (motor vehicles, transit, bicyclists, and pedestrians) and should evaluate the operation of the roadway corridor with consideration of traffic volumes, collision data, right of way, existing in-road structures, road geometry, parking utilization, transit headways, pedestrian and bicycle volumes and roadway classification.
A winning proposal will develop creative solutions to improve pedestrian and bicyclist safety, and manage traffic flow. For a more detailed explanation of the project visit the Washington Section website, please click here.
The top three plans will be chosen based on a vote at the end of the evening. Students will be competing for cash prizes of $500, $300, and $200. Additionally, this year’s scholarships will be awarded at the end of the evening.
