This City of Milwaukee is designing a traffic safety improvement project on Hopkins Street (from Locust to Capitol), and connecting west along Capitol Drive and north on 34th Street and Hopkins.

This project will include protected bike lanes and create a safer street environment that is more comfortable for people walking, biking, driving, and taking transit.
