Third Street
Third Street will be undergoing some noticeable improvements. Considered the "gateway" from the Caltrain/VTA Transit Center to Downtown Morgan Hill, Third Street is the last remaining unimproved link between the Caltrain/VTA Transit Center. The City of Morgan Hill was recently awarded for $1.7 million from the Metropolotan Transportation Comission (MTC) for streetscape improvements to Third Street. The proposed improvements are designed to encourage pedestrian, bicycle and transits trips. Some of the exciting new features to Third Street include:
- wide, tree lined sidewalks
- new curbs and gutter
- colored concrete and special paving
- midblock crossing
- removable bollards at midblocks crossing
- bulbouts at intersections
- bicycle lanes
- pedestrian scaled street lighting
- narrow traffic lanes
- parallel parking
- street furniture
