The works mainly focused on proper signage, improvement of pedestrian pavement surfaces and curb quality, as well as increasing the size of medians as larger as the space allowed. Given that this remediation is located in the crossing of a federal highway, there is a large impact because of the number of drivers and passers-by. In terms of young students, more than 2000 students benefit daily from this intervention, given that the presence of 1 private school with k-12, 1 middle school and high school, and one public middle school within a 500 m radius.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This emblematic project which is placed in one of the main streets of Culiac\u00e1n is a one-of-a-kind intervention which proposes gradual speed reduction throughout a 500-meter street section. Also, a wider sidewalk allows students to easily access the schools without a big crowd lining up outside the school\u2019s main gate. Accessibility conditions were drastically improved, the whole section of sidewalk pavements in the main school\u2019s sector was freshly installed, and the curb radii was improved in 16 street corners. More than 500 students benefit daily from this intervention.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Works in Culiac\u00e1n (S\u00f3crates) completed<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This project is located in the city centre, where heavy vehicular traffic is present, in the crossing of a small local street with a large main road where transit buses drivers speed through. Here speed control devices like reduced corner-radii and speed humps 50 meters before the school crossing were installed. As well as in the other two sites in Culiac\u00e1n, the City provided horizontal signage, and additionally they provided vertical signage for this site, proving that the grantee could maintain good synergy with the local authorities in order to benefit more than 300 young students in this location.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":6582,"template":"","countries":[],"class_list":["post-6581","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.grsproadsafety.org\/botnarcrsc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects\/6581","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.grsproadsafety.org\/botnarcrsc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.grsproadsafety.org\/botnarcrsc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/project"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.grsproadsafety.org\/botnarcrsc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.grsproadsafety.org\/botnarcrsc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/projects\/6581\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.grsproadsafety.org\/botnarcrsc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6582"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.grsproadsafety.org\/botnarcrsc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6581"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"countries","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.grsproadsafety.org\/botnarcrsc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/countries?post=6581"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
