Overview

CDOT is designing traffic safety improvements for Granville Avenue between Kedzie & Sheridan. Granville is a neighborhood street connecting  family, friends, and neighbors to schools, parks, trails, the CTA Red Line, and local businesses. However, the corridor is over-represented in traffic crashes and also sees much higher traffic volumes compared to other residential streets in Chicago. To reorient Granville as a community street, CDOT is designing a project to improve the safety and accessibility for everyone using it.

Project Goals

  • Reduce non-local vehicle trips on Granville.
  • Encourage slower & predictable speeds for the safety of everyone.
  • Better organize Granville to accommodate all uses.
  • Enhance accessibility to support all the ways people travel on Granville.

Project Location

Granville Avenue between Sheridan Road and Kedzie Avenue.
