March 2026 Update

We’re making the intersection of Oxford Ave. and Fox St. safer for everyone. The project introduces two HAWK signals and reimagined ADA ramps that guide pedestrians into a consolidated crossing. What is a HAWK signal? A HAWK (High-Intensity Activated Crosswalk) signal is a pedestrian-activated beacon used at crosswalks on busy roads to safely stop traffic.

On the east side of the intersection, new concrete curb extensions (bump-outs) will narrow the roadway and provide a natural traffic-calming effect while reducing pedestrian crossing distances by approximately 25%. Combined with new high-visibility markings, these upgrades address critical safety needs for this designated Safe Routes to School corridor and neighborhood bike route.

What’s Next? Design is nearly complete (90%). We expect to start the construction bidding process this summer and start construction in Fall 2026.
