The City of Carlsbad is seeking community feedback on options to improve safety and connectivity on Tyler Street, between Oak Avenue and Chestnut Avenue.
Take this survey through June 18.
Project background
The City of Carlsbad is working on making streets inviting for everyone, whether walking, biking or driving. Tyler Street, in the city’s historic Village and Barrio community, is one of the locations where the city is planning improvements to accommodate all forms of travel and increase connectivity.
The city is studying three options for Tyler Street.
Option 1 – Shared space
- Add decorative paving to create a “shared space” for two-way traffic for cars and bikes
- Remove curbs and add decorative paving or colored concrete for pedestrians on both sides
- Maintain parallel parking on the east side
Option 2 – One way, north
- Reduce vehicle traffic to one-way northbound
- Add bike lanes in each direction
- Maintain parallel parking on the east side
- Add continuous sidewalk on the east side
Option 3 – Parking on west side
- Maintain two-way traffic where bikes and cars share the same lane
- Add sidewalks on both sides of the street
- Move parallel parking from the east side to the west side of Tyler Street
Community feedback will be used to help refine the options. After incorporating additional input, eventually, one option will be selected to move forward to final design.
