# Transportation and Mobility Committee, October 20, 2026

Cleveland City Council’s Transportation and Mobility Committee met October 20, 2026, and approved several transportation improvement ordinances. For the Warren Road bridge deck over I-90, ODOT is expected to fund the full $7,115,500 cost and let the construction contract; work is planned for April 2028 through October 2029. Stokes Boulevard resurfacing is supported by nearly $4 million from NOACA and an estimated $946,229 city share. The Wade Park Avenue project includes five mini-roundabouts, bike and pedestrian safety improvements, and resurfacing, funded by $4.6 million from NOACA, $3.3 million from a safety fund, $4.25 million in Issue 1 funds, and an estimated $165,000 local match. The St. Clair Avenue target-speed project has a reported $7.3 million budget; the corrected legislative summary lists the city contribution as $1,628,937. The projects are scheduled to begin in 2027, with the Stokes and Wade Park work expected to extend into 2028.

The committee also approved authorization to solicit bids for a design-build upgrade to the airport’s centralized deicing-fluid collection and treatment equipment, with estimated design costs of $375,000 and construction costs of $3.75 million. It approved a one-year agreement with Fire Force Inc. for airport rescue and firefighting certification training at approximately $35,000 annually, with three one-year renewal options; officials cited an expanded firefighting team and the time since the prior agreement as reasons for the increase from about $27,500. In miscellaneous discussion, airport officials said they have no current plans to use airport property for IX Center event parking and intend to pursue aviation- and aerospace-related development on acreage returning to airport control. The listed ordinances were recorded as approved; the transcript does not describe separate roll-call votes on them.
