- Widen the sidewalk with new bus bulbs (curb extensions) and amenities for the stops at 12th and 15th avenues on both sides of Granville
- Widen the sidewalk through the intersection at 14th Ave, as part of the plaza upgrade
- Shorten the distance to cross Granville at 12th, 14th, and 15th avenues
The sidewalk upgrades are the second phase of improvements.
