Pedestrian and Bike Improvement Projects Begin Next Week

Spokane's pedestrian and bicycle improvement projects will commence on June 30, 2025, focusing on Lincoln St. and Maxwell Ave. The Lincoln St. project will close the road from Boone Ave. to Sinto Ave.

for three months, introducing buffered bike lanes and a new signal at Broadway Ave. The Maxwell Ave. upgrades aim to improve sidewalks and bike lanes, enhancing access to AM Cannon Park and the West Central Community Center, with completion expected in October. Traffic detours will be necessary, with slower speeds and delays anticipated. Local residential access will remain open, and businesses will continue to operate, urging community support during disruptions.

These initiatives are backed by funding from Washington’s Climate Commitment Act, which invests in reducing climate pollution and improving public health. The city encourages motorists to plan ahead and seek alternative routes during peak hours. The projects reflect Spokane's commitment to enhancing urban mobility and sustainability.
