  101. <p>Safety at crosswalks should always be top of mind for drivers and city officials in Davenport taking proactive measures to address visibility issues at the 2nd &amp; Perry Streets crosswalk.</p>
  102.  
  103.  
  104.  
  105. <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Davenport Crosswalk Visibility</h3>
  106.  
  107.  
  108.  
  109. <p>As part of their solution to address this concern, researchers at UW-Madison are testing an innovative beacon called Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB). Unlike conventional beacons that activate when pedestrians press a button to cross, this beacon uses dynamic signalling technology that activates flashes when pedestrians press to cross, alerting drivers while also increasing awareness among them and prompting them to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks.</p>
  110.  
  111.  
  112.  
  113. <h3 class="wp-block-heading">RRFB technology for Pedestrian Crossings</h3>
  114.  
  115.  
  116.  
  117. <p>The decision to install an RRFB at this particular site stemmed from an intention to improve pedestrian safety following the removal of an unnecessary traffic signal. City leaders prioritize targeted improvements so resources are directed where needed most.</p>
  118.  
  119.  
  120.  
  121. <p>Though there are currently no plans for expanding RRFB use to additional locations, its expansion cannot be ruled out entirely. City officials may explore expanding RRFB implementation at sites that meet specific criteria &#8211; this may include crosswalks not meeting MUTCD traffic signal criteria and locations with four-way stops and only two lanes of travel as potential sites of implementation.</p>
  122.  
  123.  
  124.  
  125. <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Davenport&#8217;s Enhanced pedestrian safety measures</h3>
  126.  
  127.  
  128.  
  129. <p>Davenport strives to meet pedestrian safety objectives while taking into account traffic dynamics at each site, using innovative solutions such as the Reverse Road Friction Barrier (RRFB). Through successful integration, this solution may also lead to improvements elsewhere within its city limits.</p>

  170. <p>Davenport continues its path toward creating an accessible transportation system with the expansion of the Goose Creek Connector Trail. Starting March 11th, this groundbreaking endeavour involves installing an essential link between Goose Creek and 59th St, near Brady; construction should conclude some time in late March/early April.</p>

  175.  
  176.  
  177.  
  178. <p>Davenport&#8217;s Goose Creek Connector Trail will serve a vital purpose in its efforts to develop an inclusive multimodal transportation system. When completed, it will seamlessly incorporate active transportation networks, arterial streets and collector streets that feature bike lanes &#8211; connecting many users through one centralized trailhead.</p>

  185.  
  186. <p>Recently, the City extended the Goose Creek Connector Trail from 59th Street to 53rd Street as part of improvements on E 53rd St, creating an important milestone by providing pedestrians and cyclists a safe passage underneath E 53rd St. In the coming year, this corridor should expand all the way towards the Veterans Memorial Multi-Use Trail from here on out.</p>

  194. <p>2024 will see significant enhancements to the trail system, with rehabilitation planned between 46th and 53rd Streets as well as construction of a new segment between 46th Street and Duck Creek Multi-Use Trail; both developments contribute towards improving overall connectivity and accessibility in the City.</p>
  195.  
  196.  
  197.  
  198. <p>As the Goose Creek Connector Trail develops further, it promises to strengthen Davenport&#8217;s transportation infrastructure while offering safe pedestrian and cycling options to both residents and visitors.
