Cortex/Tower Grove Bicycle Connector Project

Project Overview

The Cortex/Tower Grove Connector project is comprised of two phases designed to improve access to residences, parks, businesses, and schools around Tower Grove Park and the Grove Neighborhood. This project will encourage active transportation and enhance street-level activity throughtout the corridor through the incorporation of a two-way, protected bicycle track, pedestrian upgrades, and fiber optic connected traffic signals.
