Residents in the vicinity of Northwest 77th Street and Greenwood Boulevard can expect improvements as part of the approved crosswalk project.

During the May 13 meeting, the commission passed a resolution to approve a contract with Alexander and Johnson Project Management and Development for the construction of the NW 77th Street crosswalk project for $221,427.

The project will provide a safer crossing for pedestrians and aims to reduce accidents at this busy intersection. The upgraded crosswalk signal system is expected to make it easier for people to access nearby amenities and support smoother traffic movement in the area.

Other work will include concrete and curb removal, sidewalk improvements, brick paver installation, new pavement markings, and landscaping, according to city information.

The NW 77th Street and Greenwood Boulevard intersection is the access point to the Tamarac Sports Complex.
