Englewood Transportation Advisory Committee November, 12 2026

Englewood Transportation Advisory Committee meeting, listed as November 12, 2026 (meeting metadata is dated November 13). The committee received transportation project updates. The Fox Street and Oxford Avenue HAWK crossing project was funded by City Council, bid, and awarded to a selected contractor; materials have been ordered, though no vendor name or contract amount was stated. Staff is preparing a Safe Routes to School grant application focused on the Fox Street corridor, expanding the area under consideration from Ithaca Avenue toward Shenango Avenue/Highway 285. The committee discussed incorporating prior walking-and-wheeling planning and developing enough concept design to support the application. The city’s traffic-calming application program has also opened, with public information sessions planned; staff noted it expects to seek additional program funding in the 2028 budget.

Staff reported that the Old Hampton Complete Streets project had been designed and bid, but City Council chose not to award the contract, so grant funds were returned. The city plans to rescope the project and bring options back to the committee. For the South Broadway/Main Street Remix project, led by the EDA, staff is reviewing plans for sidewalk reconstruction, pedestrian bumpouts, landscaping, and a HAWK crossing near the Gothic Theatre; the project is tentatively expected to go out in spring, with no procurement award reported. The committee also heard that a council policy change removed public comment periods from boards and commissions meetings, with public input instead relayed through members. No new spending or procurement motions were taken at this meeting; the September minutes were approved.
