Project History

The City of Sacramento received federal funds to begin improving Bell Avenue conditions and engineering design started for the alignment between Bollenbacher Avenue and Astoria Street. This project aims to make Bell Avenue more inviting and safer for all users by providing bike lanes and connecting existing sidewalk segments.

Construction began in August 2022 and is expected to be finished in Spring 2023.
