About the Duke Street Traffic Mitigation Pilot

On February 27, the Traffic and Parking Board recommended approval to extend the Duke Street Phase II Pilot to May, 31, 2023. This extension allows additional time for City staff to collect more data, engage with the community, and investigate a possible permanent extension of the pilot. The Duke Street Pilot Phase II project currently restricts direct access to Telegraph Road from West Taylor Run Parkway, as well as update signal timings during the p.m. peak hours to reduce cut-through traffic on local roadways and improve traffic flow on Duke Street.
