The US 50 East Carson Complete Streets Study

US 50 East Carson Complete Streets Study Appendices A-F

The Carson Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) initiated the US 50 East Carson Complete Streets Study to identify, evaluate, and recommend potential safety, operational, and multimodal transportation improvements along US 50 between the I-580 interchange in Carson City and SR-341 in Mound House.

The results of this study will be used to help identify and inform the design and construction of future corridor projects intended to improve safety for all users, including motor vehicles, transit riders, pedestrians, and bicyclists. The study was also designed to help weigh the tradeoffs between travel, circulation, and access along the corridor, including the needs of those using the corridor for through traffic, local circulation, and business access along the corridor.
