West Midway Pedestrian Bridge

The Pedestrian Bridge, "Shep's Crossing", is complete!

Now Operational!  The Midway Pedestrian Bridge Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon (PHB), also known as a High Intensity Activated Crosswalk (HAWK), is the first PHB installed in the City and it is located just south of the new Midway Pedestrian Bridge at Industrial Lane.

A PHB is a special type of beacon used to warn and control traffic at an unsignalized location to assist pedestrians in crossing a street or highway at a marked crosswalk.
