Hollywood Boulevard Reconstruction
Overview
Request Owner Daniel Payne, Public Works & Utility Services Director
Est. Start Date 10/01/2024
Est. Completion Date 09/30/2025
Department 1/2 Cent Sales Tax
Type Capital Improvement
Description
Funding would be for the design and engineering of improvements to Hollywood Boulevard. Hollywood Boulevard would be reduced to
one vehicular lane in each direction, and the remaining width would be repurposed to provide multi-modal infrastructure. Wider
sidewalks and multi-use paths would be added on the northern and southern sides of the road. Additionally, there would be a proposed
roundabout at the intersection of Ferry Road NE/SE and Hollywood Boulevard NE/SE.

Benefit to Community
There was a community workshop held on May 24, 2023 where many residents indicated they were interested in more
multi-modal infrastructure. At this workshop, the residents expressed their concerns regarding the safety of the Ferry Road
and Hollywood Boulevard intersection. The area has a high crash history showing serious injuries. City Council provided their
support on October 24, 2023. A traffic study was performed, and the data showed the existing four lanes of Hollywood
Boulevard provide more vehicular capacity than necessary during peak travel hours. Residents suggested the extra space be
used for multi-modal transportation improvement. The study showed 71% of the crashes at the intersection of Ferry and
Hollywood were left-turn and angle crashes, eliminated by a roundabout. The addition of multi-modal infrastructure will
allow for pedestrian-friendly improvements. The placement of a roundabout at the Ferry and Hollywood intersection would
allow for a safer environment.
