The city has scheduled surface work in its Five Year Paving Plan for ten intersections starting July 2010 (7th to 15th plus at 23rd)and another eight in FY 2011/12. A few full blocks will get new asphalt in 2010 (21st-23rd and 29th-30th)and a few more in 2013. Connections to the Kirkham project from the north and south will get a much-needed makeover with the recently released stimulus funds. Work on the full stretch of 7th Avenue from Lincoln to Laguna Honda Blvd and then Laguna Honda to Plaza (close to Laguna Honda Hospital)will get underway to meet federal spending timelines. It would be great to get the bike lanes of Kirkham paved 7th to the Great Highway, but right now several other pavement surfaces of the current bike network as well as many in the 56 new projects are in much worse condition.
