Indianapolis is planning infrastructure improvements on a stretch of West Washington Street that IndyGo cut from its Blue Line bus rapid transit plan.
, the city's Department of Public Works is stepping in with infrastructure improvements to part of that roadway.
In addition to providing dedicated bus lanes for frequent electric buses, the Blue Line project also includes improvements to drainage, sidewalks, roads and traffic signals. But now these kinds of improvements to West Washington Street, west of Holt Road, are up to the city alone. More than half the project cost, $12.5 million, will come from the airport's tax increment financing district. These dollars were pledged to the Blue Line, but are now freed up for the city's use, public works spokesperson Ben Easley said.
The city has had the Fleming Garden neighborhood on its priority list for addressing flooding problems since 2017, Easley said.
