General Description

Take the Corridor & Streetscape Evaluation Survey!

We had approximately 60 people attend the first Public Workshop on February 2, 2012.  In addition, we hosted several advisory committee meetings, and a workshop with the seniors at the Kuna Senior Center. This led to the development of 46 corridor concepts and 35 streetscape concepts for the study area. The project team narrowed down the concepts and identified a set of recommended concepts that should be carried forward for further investigation.*

To assist with the project development, we encourage you to participate in an online survey (kittelson.wufoo.com/forms/kuna-downtown-corridor-plan/http/true) to identify whether you support or do not support the recommended corridor and streetscape concepts for further investigation. The project team will incorporate the results of this survey in their evaluation of these concepts and present the findings at Public Workshop #2 on April 19, 2012 at the Kuna High School Cafeteria.

Please complete the online survey by March 27, 2012, and feel free to pass along this survey to others in the community. 

*The evaluation details are presented in the “Evaluation of Initial Streetscape and Corridor Concepts” technical memorandum, which can be viewed under "Related Documents" on the right side of this page.


Project Description

  • A plan to identify how residents and visitors get to, through and around the downtown using all modes of travel.
  • The goal is to identify projects and priorities for intersections; pedestrian, bicycle, and transit facilities; and truck routes along the Avalon Street/Main Street/Bridge Street corridor, between School Avenue and Kay Street.

Purpose of the study is to:

  • Define the current and desired function of Kuna’s downtown transportation and access for all modes of travel – vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians, transit, trucks.
  • Evaluate existing and future vehicular, pedestrian, bicycle and agricultural truck patterns, circulation and operations for downtown.
  • Identify desired Downtown parking operations
  • Identify Downtown access management strategies
  • Help ACHD and the City determine Downtown improvement projects and priorities
  • Determine where improvements are needed along the Avalon Street /Main Street / Bridge Street corridor between School Road and Kay Avenue.
  • Near the end of the study, conceptual design work will begin on one of the following projects, while the others will be programmed for coming years:
    • Avalon Street between Orchard Avenue and Linder Avenue
    • Avalon Street/Swan Falls Road intersection
    • Linder Avenue/Main Street/3rd Street intersection
    • Bridge Avenue/Avenue D/ and Main/3rd intersection
    • Avalon Street/Bridge Avenue/Shortline Street intersection

Plan will recommend improvements and programming strategies thru year 2035.
