Culver City Dedication of Pedestrian and Bicycle Access Improvements Project, Friday

To celebrate the completion of the Jefferson Boulevard Pedestrian and Bicycle Access Improvements Project, the City of Culver City is inviting the public to a dedication ceremony on Fri. Jan. 18 at 10 a.m. at the small parking lot on Jefferson Boulevard, just west of the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook Entrance at Jefferson Boulevard and Hetzler Road. 

The Jefferson Boulevard Pedestrian and Bicycle Access Improvements Project has created a more comfortable way for cyclists and pedestrians to access the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook and the surrounding area. 

Some of the specific improvements that were completed as part of this project include:

• A new traffic signal with high visibility crosswalks at the intersection of Jefferson Boulevard and Hetzler Road;
• Curb extensions at the intersection of Jefferson Boulevard and Hetzler Road;
• Sidewalks filling the gap in existing sidewalks on Jefferson Boulevard near the entrance to the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook;
• Raised landscaped median islands on Jefferson Boulevard near the entrance to the Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook;
• Bike lanes from approx. Duquesne Avenue to Holdrege Avenue;
• and improvements to the small parking lot area where the City is holding the ceremony
