River Road–Hunziker intersection to get separate "protected intersection" design; Summer Lane crossing under review

City of Eugene presentation · September 2, 2022

Summary

City staff said a separate project will redesign the River Road–Hunziker intersection as a "protected intersection" to increase separation between modes; the Hunziker Lane project scopes a marked crosswalk at Summer Lane and staff are evaluating whether to add additional crossing enhancements similar to the RRFB at Tayto.

When asked about intersection safety, Logan Telles said the River Road–Hunziker location is the subject of a separate safety project that will include a "protected intersection" design, aiming to increase separation between cyclists and vehicles. He said it will include signal and hardware work and that the engineering team is still defining exact treatments.

Telles also noted that Lane County has installed an RRFB at Hunziker and Tayto, and that the city had scoped a painted crosswalk at Hunziker and Summer Lane in the grant application; staff are evaluating whether to package more robust crossing enhancements into the funded project based on community feedback.
