Airline Drive between Aldine Bender and West Road is getting a facelift.
Designs are being finalized on the $6 million project, which includes landscaping, street repairs, traffic signals and public art.
“These improvements are needed and will promote future development in the corridor,” said Executive Director of the Greenspoint Redevelopment Authority Sally Bradford. “We are looking forward to finalizing the designs and moving forward with this exciting project.”
Greenspoint’s Airline corridor is a bustling community brimming with businesses, schools and pedestrians. Some of the changes will make the pedestrian-heavy street safer to navigate. Designers are looking at ways to use landscaping to create crosswalks across the busy streets.
Construction will start in February 2011, and it should take about one year to complete.
