The proposed improvements focus on transforming Ave. Gándara into a complete street, from Ave. Ponce de León to Ave. Barbosa, with an emphasis on the Gándara/Ponce de León intersection as the main entrance to the Río Piedras Urban Center. Key enhancements include pedestrian crossings between UPRRP and the Faculty of Education, a new plaza at Calle 2, and improvements to streets like Vallejo, William Jones, Rosales, and Brumbaugh. The project scope covers new pavement, widened sidewalks, bike lanes, pedestrian safety features, speed reducers, and repaving. Additional enhancements include urban furniture, lighting with vandal-resistant LED fixtures, signage, and reforestation of green areas impacted by Hurricane María. The proposal adheres to the Puerto Rico Complete Streets Plan and relevant building codes to create a cohesive and accessible environment.
