CLAGUE ROAD INTERSECTION: GATEWA' <br />C(ague Road is currently a high volume <br />intersection along the Lorain Road corridor as it <br />connects to 1-480. This is the easternmost major <br />intersection for Lorain Road in the city of North <br />Olmsted so it serves as one of the first impressions <br />for North Olmsted to anyone entering the City <br />from the east and south. Traffic volumes and <br />auto -dominated uses around the intersection <br />prioritize vehicular access and movement. Despite <br />its challenging pedestrian environment, many still <br />use the corridor (and intersection) for recreational <br />walking and biking. <br />Recommendations focus on right -sizing the north/ <br />south approaches to the intersection, a reduction <br />in curb cuts, pedestrian and bicycle improvements <br />and the development of public art, branding and <br />placemaking details to support this area's role as a <br />gateway to the city. <br />PRIORITIES <br />• Trailhead transit stop <br />• Green frontage enhancements at vacant <br />parcel and flooring store <br />• Street trees <br />• New branded North Olmsted signage <br />• Mixed-use redevelopment at former <br />garden center site <br />• High visibility crosswalks <br />• Removal of excess receiving lanes on <br />Clague Road <br />• Medians on Lorain Road near <br />intersection <br />• Reduction/removal of excess curb cuts <br />at intersection <br />.
