Lincoln-Harrison Greenway

A neighborhood greenway along Lincoln and Harrison Streets would provide a priority east-west pedestrian and cycling route across the 6th and 7th Wards in North Evanston.

Common elements would include reduced speed limits, shared lane markings, improved signage, raised crosswalks, and dedicated/protected bike lanes in high-traffic areas.

Major destinations that would be connected include Haven and St. Athanasius Schools, Central St Businesses, Metra, CTA, Lighthouse Beach, and the new Ryan Field.

The route would also link the Old Orchard Trail and Gross Point Road Bike Lanes to the west, with the Channel Trail, Sheridan Road Protected Bike Lanes and Lakefront Path at Northwestern to the east.

Do you or someone you know (child, friend, neighbor, etc) have a personal experience with the current dangers of cycling or walking along Lincoln and Harrison Streets?
