A lot of San Diegans have spoken up about it and now the Downtown Community Planning Council is releasing some planned improvements to Grape St.
San Diegans, and most people who fly here, have experienced the congestion and chaos that is Grape Street. Many have spoken up about it and now the Downtown Community Planning Council is releasing some improvements.He’s been working at the Waterfront Bar and Grill off Grape Street and Kettner Boulevard for more than 8 years. So, you can imagine how often he deals with messy traffic.“Backed up traffic from the airport, especially the right two lanes coming out,” he said.
“Sometimes the walking situation can be a little crazy. There are a lot of homeless folks down here and sometimes they’ll take advantage of walking through the middle of the intersection and it’s kind of dangerous,” he said.“It’s all street parking. We could probably get a little bit more business if people had a place to park,” he said.
The Airport Authority is implementing changes to Grape Street at the request of the city of San Diego, consistent with the city of San Diego’s Downtown Mobility Plan. It’s a mitigation measure identified in the Airport Development Plan. The changes include removing parking on both sides of the street and replacing it with a travel lane for vehicles on the south side. It also includes a bike lane on the north side.
