Bascom Corridor FS
Project Fact Sheet Study Overview The Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA), in partnership with the City of San Jose, City of Campbell and County of Santa Clara, are looking at ways to improve approximately six miles of Bascom Avenue between Interstate 880 and State Route 85. The goal is to enhance pedestrian and bicycle mobility and safety, improve bus and light rail transit accessibility and reliability, improve the streetscape, and ensure the roadway serves all modes of transportation.
Bascom Avenue Bascom Avenue is a corridor that crosses multiple cities and neighborhoods. The character, design and feel of the street varies based on its width, types of pedestrian and bicycle amenities, major destinations (including San Jose City College and The Pruneyard) and surrounding buildings and uses.
Study Outcomes The result of this effort will be a series of community-supported conceptual street designs for improving Bascom Avenue. The designs will be organized by location and timing (short-term or long-term) to help VTA and partner agencies pursue funding to implement street improvements.
Schedule The project has a two-year schedule, beginning in late 2016 and ending in late 2018.
