West 'A' from SW 40th to Coddington


West 'A' Street Project Overview

Preliminary plans have been prepared for West 'A' Street from just west of Coddington Avenue to just west of SW 40th Street. Because funding has not been identified for right of way or construction, the project has been placed on-hold indefinitely.

West 'A' Street is designed to meet current City design standards for urban roadways. These standards include curb and gutter, storm sewer, sidewalks, and right and left turn lanes where appropriate. Current plans follow the City's Comprehensive Plan and Design Standards, which calls for West 'A' Street to have two through lanes (one in each direction) with right and left-turn lanes.

The Comprehensive Plan also indicates that a pedestrian / bicycle trail should be built along West 'A' Street from SW 27th Street to SW 40th Street.

Once funding is identified for right of way acquisition and construction, we will complete design and begin the right of way acquisition process.

If you have general questions regarding the project or how the project affects your property, please contact the project representative listed below.

Project Area Photos


The existing pavement on West "A" Street is not wide enough for traffic to pass left-turning vehicles.

The narrow pavement without sidewalks presents a challenge for bicyclists and pedestrians.

There is still considerable undeveloped land in the area, particularly along the north side of West "A" Street.

New streets and infrastructure seem to quickly lead to new homes in this part of Lincoln.

West 'A' Street is attractive for development due to its close proximity to Downtown Lincoln.

More homes will lead to more cars traveling on West 'A' Street in the future.
