Residents may see a temporary change on N Ingersoll making it two-way between Dayton and Gorham!
E Gorham St reconstruction will start on May 19, and E Gorham St between
N Baldwin St and N Livingston St will be closed to through traffic
during the project. At the request of the neighborhood, City Traffic
Engineering is considering changing N Ingersoll St between Dayton St and
Gorham from one-way street to two-way, to allow more convenient access
to various arterials and destinations for nearby residents.The change will involve a series of signing, pavement marking, and
traffic signal modifications to allow two-way operation. In order to do
so, one side of street parking on Ingersoll between Dayton and Johnson
(200 block) will have to be removed. We recommend elimination of the
parking on the East side, since the west side of the street offers
slightly more parking spaces. Maintaining parking on the west side is
also consistent with the current layout in the 300 block.The change is of course a trial during construction, but can stay
permanent if it operates well during the trial period, and the residents
are supportive.
