Share input to help inform the design of signage and streetscape concepts for Cal Ave.

There are several efforts underway that focus on enhancing the community experience and economic vibrancy of Palo Alto. These efforts also support the City's Uplift Local initiative. The Car-free Streets effort focuses on a portion of California Avenue and a half-block of Ramona Street. This is a Council-supported effort enabling outdoor dining, retail, and personal services in business districts such as California Avenue and the downtown core. Currently, Cal Ave. is open to pedestrians and closed to through vehicle traffic from El Camino Real to Birch Street. The City contracted Urban Field Studio, a design consultant, to advance this work, focusing on signage and branding, outdoor dining guidelines, circulation and access, streetscape design, legislative and environmental clearance options, an implementation plan and community engagement.

Participate in this survey to help inform the design of signage and streetscape concepts for Cal Ave. that help advance City Council’s direction to enhance Cal Ave. as a permanent car-free street.

This effort is coordinated with comprehensive economic development strategy.
